Mother's Day 2010


We will not hide these truths from our children;


we will tell the next generation




about the glorious deeds of the LORD,



about His power and his mighty wonders.


Psalm 78:4 NLT

May is He awareness month

Less of me, more of You...I've been watching life through new lenses. Sadly, I observe a  malignancy attacking Kingdom life. The life-sucking "M" word...Me!  I asked for fresh perspective; not to be disappointed.  New cases of selfishness crop up daily, growing in  epidemic proportion, but the ugliness is overshadowed by promising cure.  One wise woman calls from the wilderness, challenging the sin-sick to shed their self-medicating approach to scripture study, replacing it with intentional search for the One who gives life to the Holy pages. I take the bait and plunge. Genesis: chapter one...His rich character calls from each life altering verse .  Exodus: chapter three and four...an evolving list shatters my complacent spirit.
May births healing from my chronic condition.

                       LORD, eradicate my Me disease! 
               Infuse me with growing   knowledge of only You.      

Physician of my sin-sick soul,
To thee I bring my case;
My raging malady control,
And heal me by thy grace.
John Newton  1779
