God Uses The Lives Of Individuals...

God works through persons,

Through individual souls.

We might feel a sense of awe when we see the large committees.

The great organizations; Huge armies and big corporations.

Huge Churches and large families...

As we see these huge big majorities,

we can be made to become small. Insignificant.

I want to share a dynamic that has always humbled my heart;

God always works through the individual soul.

When men or women drift away from the Lord,

Then the individual man counts, but little

 and confidence

Is placed in big majorities and large majorities.

Remember the tower of Babel;

It was built by a huge national committee.

Who Said

"Let US build US a city and a tower"

Men are always depending on large!

But our history shows that God always uses the lives

of individuals!

We are in a good place as we seek strength and refuge under

His everlasting arms!

We can awake with His fresh dew upon our faces!

Take this time and season to restore what was lost.

Mobility that is confined, physical activity.

 And creativity that needs a jump start! 

God has and will continue to use you!

God secretly inspires some soul who will outwit the wise.

God will bring to pass and carry out all He has purposed.

In your life and the lives of those around you.

We are all living the dreams of the seed beds of those

Generations who have gone before us!

But each seed must grow and produce its own fruit!

Dear ones you are all a part of a divine plan...

God works through individual persons...

The body is made up of many different parts.

So we, being many, are one body in Christ,

and individually members of one another.

Romans 12:5

Oreo And Milk Time...

 

This is the best day ever...

I am so happy; I am celebrating!!

I feel like a heavy burden has been taken off my shoulders.

You know that feeling (Right)

When you made a decision to do something, and you realize;

You have made a bad choice,

Then by God's grace you turn and say I need to make a change.

Because this is not working for me!

I made a decision like that today;

I have decided to not do a Link Party on my blog any more!

I did learn a lot about the whole process, but I also became

Aware of the time frame it took, and saw myself becoming

Over burdened, and tired.

I have had a rough month!

You know the feeling (Right)

So now that the decision has been made;

The burden lifted...

It's Oreo And Milk Time...

It's the best day ever!

What Do You Have In Your Hand...

Do you ask this question?

What do I have in my hand...

I think it is a very important one,

We are given a portion each day as we awake,

Sometimes it is so small it feels like a single grain of salt.

Insignificant, tiny, no value.

The Lord has told us not to despise small beginnings;

"For who has despised the day of small beginnings (things)"

Zechariah 4:10

What do you have in your HAND?

I may have but a seed;

So plant it

I may have but a simple grain of salt;

Flavor your next bite of food

I may have a child's hand in mine;

Hold it tight and place a nugget in its palm

I may have a wadded up Kleenex filled with tears;

Lay it next to your night stand, as joy comes in the morning

I may have material and a button;

Sew a creation to bless someone

I may have a cup of flour and sugar;

Bake a cookie or cake and share it

Take what you have and ask God to bless it;

Multiplication comes from the Lord.

How can I have a ready hand?

How can I know what is in my hand?

Put your hand in His and just start opening and closing what is

Placed there, as long as it is a gift from above;

Use it...

Tell me, What is in your hand?

Life and Our Memories & The Headwaters Of Missions...

Moments, And Minutes, then Days

Alas, the years have flown by...

I have watched my life as through a camera lens in my mind's eye!

Memories;

As summer rolls in, we are entering another opportunity to create,

Something that holds a heart...

Life will leave imprints;

some will impart destiny and form paths for a life time.
Our Homes are the headwaters of missions;
Our children and grandchildren will be our missionaries.
To carry the gospel;

Use these everyday practical things to train them for missions;
Vacation Bible school

Love for the outdoors

Swimming, fishing, camping

Growing your own food (Future Farmers of America)

Make this summer count...

Ask your children these questions;

Does Mother pay more attention to her computer than you?

What do you remember that we did last summer?

What is the silliest and fun thing we have done together as a family?

There you have it ladies;

Out of the mouth of babes...

Mary Cassatt - The Child's Bath

This picture just melts my heart!

Rachel Jankovic says:

“It is easy to become discouraged, thinking that the work you are doing does not matter much.

 If you were really doing something for Christ you would be out there, somewhere else, doing it.

 Even if you have a great perspective on your role in the kingdom,

 it is easy to lose sight of it in the mismatched socks in the morning 

sickness, in the dirty dishes. It is easy to confuse intrigue with value,

 and begin viewing yourself as the least valuable part of the Church.

There are a number of ways in which mothers need to study their own roles,

 and begin to see them, not as boring and inconsequential,

 but as a home, the headwaters of missions.

At the very heart of the gospel is sacrifice,

 and there is perhaps no occupation in the world so intrinsically sacrificial as motherhood.

 Motherhood is a wonderful opportunity to live the gospel.

 They are your children, they are eternal souls, they are your

 mission field.”
