Reformed Living

What a message!

And today's as well. Sobering lessons from the life of Judas Iscariot.

Is it me, Lord? Could it be me? The correct frame of mind for those who understand the depth of their own sinfulness.

Thank YOU, Lord. Thank YOU, Lord. Thank YOU, Lord...for quenching our thirst in parched places.

Hope.

Prayers for our boys, please. In California for the week.

"Be kinder than necessary because everyone you meet is fighting some kind of battle."

A quote from a facebook friend.

When we recently had a sit down talk and asked Braverijah Sage if he should be hanging out w/ ABCD &E.......our wisdom filled eldest's response was...."Should you be hanging out w/ FGHI & J?"

We know that we are supposed to be....soooo.....

Okay...so our sons are on a Super Walmart Excursion w/ a few of their friends. They have a list of To Do's. I told them that there would be NO bailing out of jails tonight.


Hold me accountable, Friends.

If the Popo shows up...they sleep in the slammer.

PAUSE my Music Player first.

I recently had lunch w/ a friend and we talked about many things. One thing we discussed in particular stands out in my mind.

Are we communicating love or are we communicating that others are expendable? Are we living as if we are loved or are we living as if we are expendable?

Webster's
.....that may be expended: as a : normally used up or consumed in service b : more easily or economically replaced than rescued, salvaged, or protected

I know without doubt that this talk was ordained for this time in my life by a sovereign Lord who loves me.

It might've taken me by surprise....

....but it did not take Him by surprise.

Exodus 20:3-4

He is jealous for our affections and will cause all idols to come crashing down because He is good.

Our Pride & Joys

Huge foe....this heroin. It sucks balls and I mean that in the most Christ-like manner.

I'm dying here. Not willing to see another die. I am kicking and screaming. Pleading. Imploring. Begging. On my knees. Face down.


He was baptized, Lord...in Your name. The story of Jonah & the Whale is his favorite.

Lord, You & You alone know. You & You alone see the heart.

Help him.

Help my unbelief.

Have you ever discovered something about yourself...well, actually it's better to ask it this way........Has anything ever been revealed to you about yourself...which makes you cringe?

Me too.

Braverijah and Mcabe were contemplating taking an Acting Class together....but instead.....have asked Bradley and I to put something together for those in our community who are interested in film/drama/writing etc.

Because we love our boys & want to be near them as much as possible and because we want to assist them and others in reaching for their dreams.... and because we love this sort of stuff passionately....
