let's talk Jesus

Jesus, and only Him.

How do we know Him? Truly, honestly, without question, KNOW HIM?

It's interesting that this week's chapter of Radical discusses this concept as this has been a question we have struggled with over the last month or so in our home about the people who sit in the pews at our church.

Do you hunger?

Do you really, REALLY, want to know Him or are you scared of what you may find should you look too deep?

The situation is dire and heart-wrenching. So many who believe they are saved because they walked an aisle, said a prayer, momma went to church every Sunday, etc. are gonna wake up in Hell one day and wonder what happened or be left behind when the Bride is called home.

Can you be truly saved when your number one question to yourself isn't how will my actions affect those to whom I am a witness?

Many times I have mentioned to my husband that he needs to "just preach Jesus" and let Him take care of the rest. The beauty is that God is taking care of what needs to happen. He is reaching into the depths of hearts that do not even know how rocked their world is about to become. I know, for me, my views are being shattered.

God is a God who expects something, and we are people who owe something. Not the other way around.

which year are you?

A small group of us went to McLeod's Farm today to indulge ourselves in the last wave of strawberry goodness before the peach yumminess comes on out. I don't think any of us bought strawberries, but cantaloupes, tomatoes, and even some early peaches did make it home with us! There is a museum there that none of us had ever been through, and we had a good time looking at all of the old stuff. I had each person stand in front of the vehicle that was closest to their birth year.

Steve with a 1966 Chevy pick-up. He was born in 68, but this was as close as it was getting!

Donald in front of a 1940 something car.

Elaine, and I will be nice and not say what year this car is!

Bruce, 1941 truck.

Thelma, beside a 1930 car-like thing.

Stevie, of course, being the youngest had to stand in front of the only modern vehicle in the bunch! LOL

We had a good time with these, our seasoned friends, as always!
