Good morning and happy Friday. I'm going to be using pictures in these posts from time to time. So here is the first one. I hope it works out like I want it to. This is picture of a part of a picture. A picture we are all very familiar with. There will even be one at the end of this post. Like, comment, share; very simple and to the point tool to express a felling. So a lot of us profess and try hard to live a life God will be proud of. We love to talk about Him when the time is right for it. We stand up for Him when it's necessary. But is that what we're called to do? If your life was put down on facebook as a post how many friends would "like" it? And I mean the whole real truth of our lives. How many would comment on it? How many would share it ? What would be the best thing, is that no one would like it because of some of those "things" and no one would comment because they've done the same and for sure no one would share it; except for the One who bought it. At the high and expensive cost of His blood we have been bought and paid for. With all the mess we've made of our lives and the best we've done to fix it and make it right, only He can do it. So how about this; we all like and comment and share the Good News of Jesus with our entire "friends" list. How about sharing this simple little message today? Find a place to start and start. Choose to like His life and share it with everyone you know. In love always. <><
Well, good morning and happy Thursday. I hope that you had a happy New Year's eve and a great start to a happy new year. With all this white moisture we've had over the last couple of days, it really got me thinking about how many snowflakes it takes to cover a pasture. We've all heard the old thing about no two snowflakes being alike. With that being true, is there any individuality among them. Or, are they all formed to serve a single purpose. In the field, no one ever sees a snowflake; not very many of them at all really. But as the snow melts, they form into one stream and flow towards a common goal. Along the way vegetation is watered, animals drink, and some simply flow on and never seen or used at all. But even those that don't seem to be used at all, had to be formed and used along with those who happened to be used. It takes all of us working as a community of people that God created, to further his kingdom throughout the world. There are places some will go and reach people of all kinds with this Good News. There are places in our own homes where we can make a difference. We can be a snowflake that turns into a water droplet that waters the life of someone with the Good News of Jesus. Or, we can simply flow away and never be seen or used at all. The choice is ours to make. No one may ever see what we've ever done in this world, but the effect that we have can impact by simply choosing to serve our Lord can leave a lifelong impression that can never be measured. Don't feel like you have to make a big splash in this world, just jump in the water. In love always. <><
