Your word is a lamp for my feet, a light for my path.
– Psalm 119:105
– Psalm 119:105
And you will know the truth and the truth will set you free. John 8:32
Last week our word of the week was courage. When I asked the middle lovelies to tell me what courageous things they’d done, I got some; I rode a roller coaster; I rode with my sister when she was just learning to drive and I ate the brown meat at my aunt’s house. They were great but I was trying to get them to something bigger and then…the Holy Spirit saved the lesson when one boy said, “I think it was courageous when I went upstairs on my own and told my Dad I had lied to him and blamed my brother for something I’d done wrong.” BINGO! That's exactly the kind of courage the week was about. It takes a lot of courage to seek and speak the truth. It’s report card week so in order to complete that task so that I don’t loose my job…I thought I’d just zip out a short little post with some truths we might need to chew on this week. **The world fills us so full, we're not hungry for God. **Temptation is an invitation to leave the truth and enter deception. **We're trusting Him for eternity but not for earth. **If we’re jealous; we’re not grateful. **Complaining is the greatest form of selfishness. Now, lets pray for the courage to do something great with these truths. A Seed To Plant: As you sit in prayer this week, carefully ponder those five sentences and ask God to show you how they fit in your life. Blessings on your day!
