Are you ready?
With the way our world is heading, I have a question for you. Are you ready?
Ready. In that, how is your walk with GOD?
Do you KNOW JESUS?
Christians are getting persecuted all over the world. Americans – I’m not talking about someone picking on you for going to church. I’m talking about Christians being killed, kidnapped, beat to near death, torn away from their families ….. all because they refuse to deny our Savior.
Where do you stand? Do you love God more than your life? Do you KNOW Him?
I’m not even going to dare to say that we have it better here in the luxury of America, because I don’t think we do. It’s too easy for us to be luke warm believers. It’s so easy for our relationship with Christ to become an after thought at the end of the day, so we ‘catch up’ with Him via a bedtime prayer. Imagine a day where all you have is your relationship in Christ – what a glorious day!
If you were approached and questioned – Would you deny God to live another day on this earth? – or – Would you follow Him, no matter the cost?
Just something to think about.

“So, how’s your marriage?” {grace words wednesday}
truth. prayer. your man & a cup of joe. marriage. keeping your foundation in check.
My sister-in-law asks the best questions.
Questions like, “How’s your heart? What are your boys into right now? What is the Lord teaching you? What are you reading?”
Time doesn’t lapse long before Erin dives straight past the surface into heart-level territory. But one question she frequents jolts me every time…
“So, how’s your marriage?”
My marriage? Like Brent and me? “Well, it’s fine.”
Fine (adj) good, acceptable, or satisfactory
I know, don’t be so underwhelmed by my response. Fine. Yeah, my marriage is acceptable.
Brent and I are satisfactory. Marriage is fine.
But, let’s be real. If I am answering Erin’s soul-deep question from a gut honest level, most days I would say, “Marriage. Well, it is on auto pilot. I haven’t really thought about my marriage (at all) today. The kids need me. Work demands me. Ministry pulls at me. But marriage, it is left to…
