Well...

I hear that baby Elle will not be making her first appearance today (at least as far as we know). We are praying for you Linds!


In Titus I read today:

"For the grace of God that bringeth salvation hath appeared to all men. Teaching us that, denying ungodliness and worldly lusts, we should live soberly, righteously, and godly, in this present world;
Looking for that blessed hope, and the glorious appearing of the great God and our Saviour Jesus Christ;
Who gave himself for us, that he might redeem us from all iniquity, and purify unto himself a peculiar people, zealous of GOOD WORKS."


I have been really searching for what the "next step" in my Christian walk should be. A goal to have in mind. I honestly have no intentions of being involved in any formal ministry situation besides helping out part time with the youth group. Then as I was reading this today along with some other passages I realized my next step is disciplining myself in the ways of God. "To be discreet, keepers at home, good, obedient to their own husbands..."
I want to really live out theses things so they abound in my life!

Thanks for sharing that, Leah! That is definitely a ministry in and of itself! We can worship, love, obey, and minister etc. all in being a wife/mom. What a calling, and what a blessing the Lord has given us.

Love you!

Amen Leah, the best thing that ever happened to our family was when I quit my job and stayed home to take care of my family. I will always be thankful I had the chance to do that. It definately will be the hardest job you ever do.
