1 Corinthians, 2025, For What It's Worth To You, Just Chatty Today

Conduit

Maybe it’s just me but I don’t like the phrase GOD wants to use you.
I’m sorry, it just about makes me cringe. Not sure why. Probably something from long ago.
But let’s move on to what I do like.

Co-Laborers with GOD.

1 Corinthians 3:9 King James Version  9 For we are labourers together with God: ye are God’s husbandry, ye are God’s building.

GOD is willing to love people. HE is willing to speak to people. How does HE do that?
His HOLY SPIRIT does this!

And HE in us speaks TRUTH.
HE in us helps the needy.
HE in us gives wise counsel.
HE in us comes alongside the lonely, the scared, and the broken, and cares for them.

It’s not a using me program – no it’s a giving us the privilege, giving you and me the privilege to watch ourselves do what we know we neither have the knowledge nor the love to do, but we see ourselves doing it!
And HE in us can do it all!
And HE if we will humble ourselves and agree to be holy conduits, HE will work with us, in us, and through us!

Perhaps it’s just the turn of a phrase but it’s mine and you are welcome to use it. 😊

Until next time  ~~~ Holy hugs, Kathie 

PS and here I sit on April 2, 2025, prayer Journaling asking Father to make sure none of the things He has done for me and in me goes unused by Him for His glory, for His Kingdom. When Father GOD is the One doing the using it’s a holy, wonderful, amazing, thrilling, glorious adventure. Just thought I’d give y’all this update. 😊 Oh to be USED by GOD! Every day please!

A Walk in the Street

Leave a comment

Saturday’s sun has set, and lights are now glowing in all the houses on our street, including ours. Football is being played, and I just wanted to say hello.

Today was Pioneer Day in a small, happy town near us, so we seized the opportunity for an outing with two little great-grands. I don’t often share pictures, for privacy reasons, of course, but perhaps a few just this once will be a happy for us all. 

When all the pioneering was done and we were safely home again, Little One asked for a walk in the street. He knows walking our slow, quiet neighborhood street is a no-no without a grown-up tagging along. It was a delightful walk, especially since we found this. img_3882-1 The picture certainly does not do it justice with the splendid late afternoon sun dancing on pink but we hope you enjoy it.

That’s all for now. Happy coming soon Sunday, my Friends.

Sometimes I come and sit and look at this blank screen and in my mind, I write something funny or important and I feel connected to a small collection of people beyond this screen.
Silly.
But here I am tickling the keyboard waiting for something to appear on this screen that is worth the publish button.

I have been a tiny, minuscule part of the blogging world since 2005,  I think.
First with another hosting platform, and here at WordPress since 2007. That’s a lot of words.

Oh, Father, You know my desire has been to make You known from the pages of this blog. To establish a connection whereby I could communicate that You are and that they (I) need You; that You are the only hope people have to escape this world with peace and safety. I’d like to keep doing that as long as You will leave me here. For sure, for sure it will take You in me to do this – You are my only hope. 

I hope it is immediately apparent as you happen upon The White Stone Blog that it is a web spot where JESUS is King. I hope you find this a pleasant place with refreshing, or perhaps even odd thoughts expressed, good stories, funny stories, interesting information, and real-life help to know GOD better than you did before you stopped by.
I suspect I will not know the good that was accomplished by these pages until I am absent from this body and present with The LORD.

Not to take anything away from my dear brother Paul, I just know it took the Blood of JESUS to wash this sinner clean and it’s a really good thing that that Blood does not lose its power, it keeps on keeping me clean — I did not say sinless, but I do sin less than I used to. Hallelujah!
I have a word this year that I am taking with me through the year.
It’s the word DELIGHT and my aim is that I learn this year more than I ever have to delight in The LORD and to know that He delights in me and to take delight in the people He puts in my life this year, particularly those who came with me from 2023.

It’s been a sweet Sunday here. I hope it is at your house too.

I got to go now. We need a dog leash — we loaned out the one we had to a stranger. :)
