Well, I haven't updated in months, so I thought, why not today?
There are so many struggles in this life, and I am so grateful to have the help and encouragement from brothers and sisters in Christ. I am thankful to Jesus Christ, for his mercy he has bestowed upon me, and my family. If I were to be taken from this world today, I could say that through God's grace, I have had a wonderful journey here. The thing that concerns me the most at the thought of not being here, is my children. I want so much to be able to show them Christ, through his word, and a life lived for him.
I am grateful for my little church. A place I can take my family, and escape the world for a little while. Such a simple little place, no programs, no professional music, just people meeting to worship together, and hear the word of God. I have learned, that it is in the quiet times, that he speaks to me,
Ps 46:10 ~ Be still, and know that I am God: I will be exalted among the heathen, I will be exalted in the earth.
The biggest struggle in my daily life right now is modern music, I am constantly channeling the radio in my van, and it is the main topic while driving down the road. My children think I am crazy about this, but, I am a child of God, and YES I am offended by the insinuations and the language of most of the music today. If I were not, then there would be a problem with my relationship with Christ. I do not want to hear it in my home, or my vehicle. What’s even more disturbing to me, is the many of the places we go, that is supposed to be shelter from the ways of the world, are now conforming their ways to be more in sync with that of the world.
Romans 12 ~ Be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.
Thanks for the space of venting today, it was appreciated!
