Biblescopes for today are Psalms 10, 40, 70, 100, 130 & Proverbs 10
Today, don't bring grief into the lives of others. Let righteousness deliver you from death. Work diligently at your job that you and your family will have plenty and even more, pressed down, shaken together, and running over. Let your good work ethic become a work ethic valuable to God Almighty!
Cry out to the Lord for mercy and He will respect you and your prayers. Put your hope in Him and He will come on time to answer you. God is my hope. Put your hope in Him as well, and know the affects of His unfailing love.
Hatred stirs up dissension. Love covers many, many sins. Cover your sins, and
those of others, with God's love. God's blessings bring wealth to you, and as a man or woman of righteousness, take delight in wisdom.
The Lord's ways are a refuge for the righteous who will never be uprooted and joy will become your heart's song. If you need help from the Lord and you seem to be overwhelmed, pray that Jesus will come quickly!
Praise the Lord and He will come expediently to your rescue. Shout for joy to the Lord and worship Him with gladness. Take comfort in God knowing He is loving and forgiving. The Lord is good and His love endures forever.

Biblescope for October 31, 2009
Biblescope for October 31 from Psalms 119 & Proverbs 31
A exception: On the thirty-first of the month Psalm 119 is used for birthdays on the 31st calendar day since it is so long and then Proverbs 31 helps complete the reading of all Psalms and Proverbs.
Today, remember God's precepts and apply them to your whole heart. Learn God's statutes and walk in them. Do not wonder away from the Word of God. Read it, remember it, breath it in and breath it out, share it and live it. Hide the Word in your heart so you might not sin against God. Meditate on God's ways. Take delight in what God's Word reveals to you and cherish it as a precious stone. God will bless you out of His plenty. Long for God to surely provide goodness and mercy all the days of your life.
Don't waste your strength on sinful actions. They pull you away from God's goodness. Instead, take care of the needy and speak up for those who cannot defend themselves. Defend the rights of the poor and destitute. Bring goodness to those in your life and carefully protect them from harm. Be a faithful, hard worker giving more than is expected. Feed those who need sustenance. Invest in real estate and make a profit for the well-being of your family. Exercise and keep your muscles strong that you might work vigorously. Be known to others for your integrity and resourcefulness.
If you find your soul dragging and droopy, pray God will strengthen you and lift you up. Droopy isn't God's plan. It is His plan to exalt you and pick you up out of the dust and dredges. It is not God's will that you let your heart be sad. Ask God for His mercy to come to you and ask that He come quickly for you need His help and His relief. He will make His face to shine on you and He will give you peace. If you find yourself straying, God has such mercy and forgiveness, He will take you back immediately when you confess your sins. Thank Him for His unfailing love and let praises to Him come from your heart.

Praising My Way Out of Depression
One chapter in the book Biblescopes: Prophecy from One Who Created the Stars addresses depression and how I battle this giant more often than I should. You see, my life started in distress and difficulty from birth until now. When I decided to write using Biblescopes as the book title, I got a great deal of grief about the title. So, I tried to change it, find another, not write at all. Do these mind sets sound familiar? One who has known more loss, pain, abuse, and sickness than seems fair--signs of depression? Maybe just a poor self-esteem? Depression in one hand and poor self-esteem in the other. Let's see which I fill up faster!
I began asking God to help me know how to help others with possible depression symptoms that may only be manageable but still limiting. The first time I suffered dysfunctional depression was after the birth of my second child and the immediate divorce from my first husband. Next was after losing my home to foreclosure in 1984. Next was in 1988 when I was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis. My moods swing with the state of my health. I am the queen of good days and bad days.
I have been very close to God most of my life, even when I find myself in sin turning my back on Him. He still loves me. I have to ask His forgiveness so much depending on where I am on the love spectrum. He loves me, He loves me not, I love Him, I love Him not. Not too many variances in this relationship. Although, I could add--I think He loves me, I know He doesn't.
If you're reading this and you are depressed and possibly thinking of suicide or any other type of ...side, please, go to your nearest hospital, call 911, suicide hotline or other helps for severe depression. That end of the depression spectrum is too serious even for me to address. Although I'm not limiting God. He can help you but you may need Him and professional Christian or secular help.
When depression entered my life again, it was subtle, gentle, and manageable. I was having to deal with a new high stressed job, a pregnant teenager, and the symptoms of an incurable disease. I was calling in sick at work, staying up all night, sleeping all day, not answering the phone, and not helping my husband with the house.
Well, I must stop and start back up tomorrow. Remember, don't wait to ask for help whether from God or a doctor. Get help now!
