Word Filled Wednesday

WFWlogo

The grass withers, the flower fades, But the word of our God stands forever.”  Isaiah 40:8

002

We hear so often about the power of reading, meditating, hearing and acting upon God’s Word.  Why is it so important?  This verse gives a powerful reminder that although things as basic as grass and as beautiful as flowers wither and fade, the Word of God will stand forever.  We can depend upon it’s truth and securely follow the path it leads. 

During the summer it is sometimes easy to neglect daily reading the Bible.  May we be encouraged to continue on, making a devotion a part of our daily schedule. There is nothing more important or powerful!

    So right you are - I am beating myself up all the time for not paying attention to the One who gives me breath. Oh that He would be alive in me every moment of my days.

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

Relationships and Redemption

In every friendship or relationship, there is a common hope that they will grow and flourish. There is something inside of us that longs for a 'happy every after' story. We dream about it and work to make that happen. But in reality, relationships are a challenge. The bridging of values, lifestyles, interests and sacrificing for another are simply hard things to do! No matter how much we dream of the perfect fit, some relationships will not endure the stress.  When differences appear and tensions arise, prayer can change situations, attitudes and ourselves. For the Christian, we know God can transform, change, heal. We cannot change others, but prayer opens us the door for God to step in and answer. God desires transformation, but does not demand it. The gift of free will allows us to choose to say Yes or No to Him.  Romans 12:18 says, “If possible, so far as it depends on you, live peaceably with all.” Take notice of the first two words: “If possible …” This implies that some
