Word Filled Wednesday

But Jesus said, “Let the little children come to Me, and do not forbid them; for of such is the kingdom of heaven.” 

Matthew 19:14

children-1

This week I am away at church summer camp.  Although I’m a mom to three sons, for the next few days I will be living in a cabin full of girls! 

This verse seemed to be appropriate for this week since I would be surrounded by children!  Jesus loved children and gave the example to take time with them, to love them, to bless them and do not send them away.   My prayer is for His love to flow through me and love the little children through me.

    I went to camp several summers after Tyler died - as a volunteer at a camp for kids with cancer that Tyler loved - and had such an awesome time! I never really enjoyed camp when I was a kid (too much of a homebody...) but I loved as an adult!! Have a great time!!

Sometimes We Score, Sometimes We Block

Our family is in the midst of little league soccer season. My youngest son is playing and his enthusiasm is contagious. He is pretty good at the sport, but what makes it so great is that he loves it! He counts the days until the next game or practice. He loves his coach and teammates. He has moved up an age level this year and the players are working more like team, passing to each other and watching out for each other during play. During the last game, my son scored two goals, they were the only goals of the game. In today's game the team scored eight goals. My son came up afterwards to me and said, "I didn't score today, but I blocked". What a powerful truth those words can hold. In life, sometimes we score, sometimes we block. Sometimes we do great things, we excel, we achieve, we meet our goal - we score! There are also times we see the needs of others, sometimes they are sad or hurting, we block their hits. We look out for them so they can score. We

Word Filled Wednesday – Act Justly

He has shown you, O man, what is good;       And what does the LORD require of you                But to do justly, To love mercy,       And to walk humbly with your God?    Micah 6:8 Sometimes we struggle so hard with the question “What does God want us to do and be?”  This verse is a simple yet powerful reminder of some simple things that God requires of us.  Act and do justly, love mercy and walk humbly before God.  There are numerous opportunities each day to do justly, to do the right thing or to make the right choice.  We love mercy when we show kindness or mercy oftentimes to those who do not deserve it.  Walking humbly before God is acknowledging He alone is God.  He is the I AM – no one else is.  When we give Him the glory He is worthy of, it will humble our heart before Him.  Obeying God doesn’t have to be unattainable or impossible, but can be a joyful, beautiful journey as we go by step and follow Him.
