Sacrifice

Today is the day we reflect on the Ultimate Sacrifice ever done for man.The Sacrifice so many say they understand or even live for. Matthew 16:24-25 KJV Then said Jesus unto his disciples, If any man will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow me. For whosoever will save his life shall lose it: and whosoever will lose his life for my sake shall find it. Many people don't realize that living for Him is a sacrifice. As He gave His life to us; we are to give our lives to Him. We are to die to our flesh and our own way of thinking and live according to His Word. Jesus Thank you for what you were so willing to do for me! Thank you for the blood you shed for me --a sinner. May you find comfort in knowing and truly understanding His Sacrifice. ANGIE

Always the same...

You know some things just never change. People want your advice, want your direction, wisdom from the Word till the second you touch on something that hurts. Till the second you step on their toes, or make them exam their own way of thinking. Then- its not so fun any more.. then your words, are NOT so wise, or you are viewed as judgmental or condemning. I guess that is part of standing on God's Word in all situations. I guess that is part of seeing sin for sin and seeing that condemnation that comes from living in that sin without consequences or having a unrepentant heart.( Romans 2:5-6...But because of your hardness and unrepentant heart you are storing up wrath   for yourself in the day of wrath,   when God’s righteous judgment is revealed.  He will repay each one according to his works:)( Romans 8:5 For those who live   according to the flesh think about the things of the flesh,   but those who live   according to the Spirit, about the things of the Spirit.)   It pains me when

Bible challenge update

I wish I could say I have been faithful every day to the Word as I would have like but I can't but I am slowly getting through the plan. It has this neat feature called catch me up and it readjust your start date so you don't remain behind. I know it's cheating but it does help me stay on it.... How about you??? ANGIE

Should we?

Lately I have been baffled by the brainwashing or conditioning we go through starting from childhood on how to think,and what to think. We have been convinced that it is necessary to control the number of children we have. That children are a burden not a blessing. Birth control, experimenting sexually is all the process of growing up, not damaging to you spiritually, mentally or even physically  nor does anyone even tell you that you are sinning against against our Lord and Creator. What about the conditioning towards the acceptances of sin? Conditioning on accepting homosexuals as "being born this way" in stead of being an addiction or sin just like any other sin..No more foul then being an alcoholic or addicted to pornography but it is still a sin. But it is being thrown in  our face,rammed down our throats and our children are being conditioned to accept the sin as we have been trained to accept the sin of birth control and experimental sex. It is becoming the norm to see

Disappointment and failed expectations....

I have come to realize that I have been carrying some bitterness toward my beloved husband. He is a great man, great husband and great father but in that greatness there are still things that fail, and disappoint. Have you ever been disappointed by someone you love? Have you had expectations of how things should be or handled? In disappointment and expectations is the root of bitterness. What do you do when you are disappointed or an expectations has not been met? Most say nothing. Then when the next disappoint comes, you remember the first and second, with each disappointment or failed expectations you build a pyramid of bitterness. Till one day that pyramid is so big you either have to face it. This question has come to mind... As believers in Jesus Christ- is it right for us to have expectations of each other? (Especially if you have not verbalized those expectations) Does the word of God say anything about this subject? Hebrews 12 14 Strive for peace with every

Struggling...

For weeks I have meant to sit down and gather my thoughts here. Time seems to run away from me with things pulling me in so many different directions; like homeschooling, the children's spiritual walk, as well as ministry work and church. Yes my plate some days seems so overwhelmingly full that even those days I want to blog and it is constantly on my mind I NEVER seem to get to it. So I guess I should get you up to speed on what is been going on here: My eldest has ended his courtship. It happened fairly quickly after I posted the post announcing the courtship. He really started to see how difficult it was for him to continue on when she truly was not equally yoked with him. She wanted different things, was unwilling to change her life to accommodate a person she supposedly loved. Recently the mother- who said terrible things about him, and our family, without ever knowing us or spending time with us- called to apologize for not accepting him into their family. I am not sure wha
