splinters

Do you remember when one of your kids came to you crying with a splinter and you were trying to get it out of a finger? “Be still” were the two words out of your mouth. Their purpose? To make that little guy sit still so you could keep from digging that flame sterilized needle into your baby’s already pounding finger!

My little guys always were in the “know”. They knew that their momma would get that splinter out. If they were very still, that splinter came out quicker and with less pain. They trusted me, they knew me..I was their momma. Continue reading splinters →

I am old enough to remember when it was okay to disagree, and respect was shown and given. Maybe we can return to the “good ‘ole days”.

May the Lord hear our prayer~

Election Eve

As I sit here on “Election Eve” I am overwhelmed with the need to pray for our nation. I have felt this for the last several months as have many of you. As I pray this evening I am so saddened by the fact that our country is divided. It feels like two separate nations on so many issues.

I pray our nation can be healed. I pray our nation can learn to respect one another again. I am old enough to remember a time when you could have differences of opinions and “agree to disagree”. I pray our nation will remember our founding Fathers and how this nation was built. I pray our nation can be the nation that God designed it to be.

I pray for the body of Christ. I pray that WE can unite as one and not appear splintered in so many areas. I pray that we will stop “shooting our wounded” and “casting stones”. I pray that we can love unconditionally as Christ loves so that people will want to know “this Jesus” that we believe in and trust.

And I am reminded that it doesn’t matter the outcome….like it or not….I know that my God is still God. He is still on the throne. And Jesus Christ is still coming again.

And that my hope…my only hope is:

IN CHRIST ALONE
