Word Filled Wednesday – Beautiful Feet

WFWlogo

How then shall they call on Him in whom they have not believed? And how shall they believe in Him of whom they have not heard? And how shall they hear without a preacher?  And how shall they preach unless they are sent? As it is written:

youth feet

Recently the youth of our church took a day trip to the beach.  Of course they wanted to have some fun in the sun, but first they took to walking the beach passing out free water and tracts to witness of God’s great love.  They spoke with 81 people and passed out some Christian literature.  We are so proud of them!

This verse lets us know that it is a beautiful thing when we speak of the Lord to others and share the Good News of His love, mercy and salvation.   Whether we are “walking” on the beach, in the grocery store, on the ball field, at the library or on the job, may we be encouraged to have ‘beautiful feet’ and share the Good News!

    And it is amazing that some things can be done so simply...but profoundly.

    How wonderful! Thank you for sharing this testimony of the teens. We too often hear the bad but... Is God not working through the youth? Yes indeed, He is.

    Blessings,

    My wife had a wonderful interaction with someone at the store once. At the end of their conversation there were tears and a recommitment to God.

    I am sure the young people had fun sharing water and infromation with others enjoy the sun and sand. I like the picture of the feet and the verse you put on there. Very nice. *smile* Hopefully they are growing in God each day and that time on the beach was one more reminder to them that no matter where they go they can share Christ. *smile* So many ways to share His love and truths. Sincerely, Mommy of two little blessings & so much more!

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...

WFW – Write It On My Heart

This is the covenant I will make with the house of Israel       after that time, declares the Lord.    I will put My laws in their minds       and write them on their hearts.    I will be their God,       and they will be My people.  Hebrews 8:10 On a recent field trip to a museum featuring the days gone by, we sat in an old schoolroom as the teacher introduced us to the quill pen and bottle of ink.  She cautioned us to use extreme caution using the ink and told us that if it got on our skin or clothes, it would not come off. This reminded me of this beautiful promise from Hebrews.  God told His people he would put His law in their minds and write it on their hearts.  This is a covenant which cannot be broken.  He loves us and wants us to know Him through His Word.  As we read more and more of His Word, it becomes w...

Construction, Challenges, Chaos

 Who knew something simple could erupt into something chaotic so quickly? A broken file cabinet forced us to purchase a new one. We found one online, ordered it and it arrived quickly with a do it yourself assembly book, complete with 24 part packages and 18 steps of instructions!  As we unpacked the items and compared with the instruction book, we realized a part was missing. Customer service was called, a replacement part was quickly received. Except, the screws did not fit into the holes on the replacement part. We tried again, received another part, same issue.  Meanwhile, the 24 packages of parts are spread out on my living room floor, customer service does not understand my issue, they asked for photos which were sent and now we are again, waiting for a part.  It seems every project faces the inevitable delay. My work place is undergoing a floor remodel. Upheaval, dust, packing, lots of inconvenience and depending on the work crew's schedule dictate the next fe...
