Follower of Yeshua. Wife, Mother, Grandmother, Great-Grandmother. Some call me a teacher. Some say I'm a prayer warrior. A few accredit me with some writing skills. Me? I say I'm a work in slow progress, looking for perfection in eternity and until then having all the holy fun I know how.

Startling

Here are the facts. Until a few weeks ago, 6 and 7 were just numbers to me, and then I learned it’s a song, a song that even church kids hum.
Who sings it?
All I’m willing to say here is that he is purportedly a little g god worshipper, complete with live animal sacrifices. Not something to mess around with, you understand.

And then today, in a place I didn’t expect, a little one voiced 6 7.

I was startled, but as the day went on, I went on with my day.
And then, as startling as the morning, right out of the gate when I opened the app, she said this:

Coincidence?

Christian parents, we are going to lose our children to the god of darkness if we don’t turn on the LIGHT.
The LIGHT of the WORLD.
HE said, “Bring the children to Me.”

What does it mean to bring the children to JESUS?  It must be more than taking them to “church”.  Because even there they can hear about 67. 

Coincidence.
Is it a coincidence that today stacked up in this unexpected way?
Nah. I can’t say I can swallow that. Can you?

Luke 18 – JESUS blesses the children

How about a recipe for this Friday?

I’m not saying it’s the healthiest (sourdough, I am told, is way better for us), but if you need some quick bread this celebrating season, this just might be the ticket. 

I’ve made it several times, and if I can do it, you can do it!

Speedy Homemade Hamburger Buns Homemade Wheat Hamburger Buns - dairy-free

I increase the health factor by using Spelt flour, olive oil, honey, and pasture-raised eggs (at least I hope I am).  They are versatile; you can use them for more than just hamburger buns – just vary the shape of the dough before baking.

That’s it.

A Harvest

Our parents made mistakes in their disciplining of us, some more than others.  We made mistakes in disciplining our children, but GOD, He has never made a mistake. And He never will. His discipline is always for our good, and always because He loves us. 
Does it hurt?
Well, yeah! Sometimes the pain lingers long!
But I’ve discovered that even in the midst of pain, I still sense and know His love for me and His comfort to me. 

There’s more in the verse. 
So, let me ask, what reason do you see, other than for our good, does Father discipline you and me?  I think it is even more important than for our good — although this is certainly good for us.
