Race of Faith

I love the imagery of this passage and so wish I could draw it. Meditate on it and feed on the power of  Paul's words.

Therefore we also, since we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which so easily ensnares us, and let us run with endurance the race that is set before us,

Hebrews 12:1

Crown of life

Blessed is the man who endures temptation; 

for when he has been approved, 

he will receive the crown of life 

which the Lord has promised to those who love Him.

James 1:12 NKJV

Do good

Today let's all try to do at least one random act of kindness. It could be as simple as saying "have a blessed day" or holding the elevator for someone to buying lunch for a coworker or a gift for someone who's feeling down. Do or say something today that is at least an inch outside of your comfort zone that shows others the peace within you that is Jesus Christ.

But as for you, brethren, do not grow weary in doing good.

2 Thessalonians 3:13 NKJV

Profiting from trials

Consider your faith tested whenever you suffer, whenever you doubt, whenever you fail to answer God's call. It's how you respond to trials and tribulations that can bring glory to God.
     Do you lament the situation or praise God for bringing you through it? Do you ask for forgiveness and for another opportunity to glorify Him?
     Dayton has suffered two major tragedies in a short period of time: the Memorial Day tornadoes and a mass shooting in the Oregon District. In both instances, I was both amazed and proud of how many people reacted with thanksgiving instead of lamenting their losses. The tornado victims said time after time how blessed they felt to have escaped with their lives and how thankful they were for all of the help and support. The number of people killed in the Oregon District that night was about 2 seconds away from escalating into the double or even triple digits. Police responded within 24 seconds and killed the perpetrator just a couple of feet from entering a packed bar.
     It's okay to cry, to be angry, to ask why, but then, at some point, we need to pick ourselves up and praise God for bringing us through. This is how we profit from trials, by showing how we have the comfort and strength of Jesus within us, and the perseverance to move forward.

My brethren, count it all joy when you fall into various trials, 

knowing that the testing of your faith produces

perseverance (or patience or endurance). 

But let perseverance have its perfect work, 

that you may be perfect and complete, lacking nothing.

James 1:2-4

You've got this

Perseverance - steady persistence in a course of action or purpose, especially in spite of difficulties, obstacles, or discouragement.

I am an introvert. The idea of asking someone if they know Jesus makes me, frankly, nauseous. But feeling that way makes me feel like the lowest form of life because of what Jesus did for me on the cross. You would think I'd be able to talk about Him freely and constantly. It's hard. It's hard for a lot of us because we fear rejection and the possibility of angering someone. I've tried talking to loved ones about Jesus and have had them get downright angry at me. So, I've wondered, what's the right thing to say or what are the exact words others use to start the conversation? I've watched other people do this with such ease and without upsetting anyone and I wonder what's their secret?

I think the answer is "perseverance". They've done it over and over again and have gotten to where they're comfortable and not as afraid as I am. Just like anything else, it takes practice.

I listen for clues or openings and have been better prepared to respond to those by reading the Bible consistently and studying its contents. I pray for strength and especially for the words I need. It all works together to help me be a better servant to Jesus (I consider myself to be a "beginner" at best) and to be a part of the Great Commission which is our purpose for being here. We're planting seeds and may never see the fruits of our labor but we can trust in the Lord that we're doing His will whenever we share the Good News. Persevere. With God's strength, you've got this.

Seek the Lord and His strength;

Seek His face evermore!

1 Chronicles 16:11 NKJV

Let's talk about Jesus

Remember how easy it was to start a conversation as children? When did it get to be so hard?

The current series of sermons at our church is on Philippians (you can listen to past sermons here) and yesterday's was about responding to God's call. Once we are saved, the work begins. Imagine being a Phillipians back then and reading this letter from Paul. He didn't sugarcoat anything, telling them, "For to you it has been granted on behalf of Christ not only to believe in Him, but also to suffer for His sake." (Phil. 1:29 NKJV). Paul himself was writing as he was under house arrest, chained to a guard. That didn't keep him from speaking freely and openly about Christ.
     Even under these conditions, he was writing to encourage and teach (in case he couldn't make it back to visit them) the Philippians as to what they need to do to live a Christian life.
     I believe that a lot of us today have trouble spreading His word because we live in fear. We don't fear being imprisoned or killed because of our faith, but merely of being rejected when we attempt to share the gospel with non-believers. Remember everything Christ went through for us? Can we not at least face the possibility of rejection for Him? I know I have a really hard time with it, so I'm not preaching at you; I merely want to start the conversation. Let's talk about Jesus.

being confident of this very thing, 

that He who has begun a good work in you 

will complete it until the day of Jesus Christ;

Philippians 1:6 NKJV

Be forgiven

“Judge not, and you will not be judged; 

condemn not, and you will not be condemned; 

forgive, and you will be forgiven;

Luke 6:37 ESV

The Parable of the Unmerciful Servant

 Then Peter came to Jesus and asked, “Lord, how many times shall I forgive my brother or sister who sins against me? Up to seven times?”
 Jesus answered, “I tell you, not seven times, but seventy-seven times.
 “Therefore, the kingdom of heaven is like a king who wanted to settle accounts with his servants. As he began the settlement, a man who owed him ten thousand bags of gold was brought to him. Since he was not able to pay, the master ordered that he and his wife and his children and all that he had be sold to repay the debt.
 “At this the servant fell on his knees before him. ‘Be patient with me,’ he begged, ‘and I will pay back everything.’ The servant’s master took pity on him, canceled the debt and let him go.
 “But when that servant went out, he found one of his fellow servants who owed him a hundred silver coins. He grabbed him and began to choke him. ‘Pay back what you owe me!’ he demanded.
 “His fellow servant fell to his knees and begged him, ‘Be patient with me, and I will pay it back.’
 “But he refused. Instead, he went off and had the man thrown into prison until he could pay the debt. When the other servants saw what had happened, they were outraged and went and told their master everything that had happened.
 “Then the master called the servant in. ‘You wicked servant,’ he said, ‘I canceled all that debt of yours because you begged me to. Shouldn’t you have had mercy on your fellow servant just as I had on you?’ In anger his master handed him over to the jailers to be tortured, until he should pay back all he owed.
 “This is how my heavenly Father will treat each of you unless you forgive your brother or sister from your heart.”
Matthew 18:21-35 NIV

Always forgive

So watch yourselves.

“If your brother or sister sins against you, rebuke them; 

and if they repent, forgive them. 

Even if they sin against you seven times in a day 

and seven times come back to you saying ‘I repent,’ 

you must forgive them.”

Luke 17:3-4 NIV

The freedom of forgiveness

Bear with each other and 

forgive one another 

if any of you has a grievance against someone. 

Forgive as the Lord forgave you.

Colossians 3:13 NIV

Do you see a similarity between all of this week's Bible verses? Forgive as God forgives you. We all want to be forgiven, but sometimes, when it comes time for us to forgive someone, we struggle with it. After my first husband passed away, I felt like it was necessary to forgive him for the many ways he wronged me, mostly for the hurtful things he said. I had a really hard time with it and told myself that he never, ever apologized; he didn't ask for my forgiveness so, therefore, I didn't have to forgive him. Yet I spent a lot of time (and money) in therapy because of it. I realized that the only way to be free from him was to forgive him, wholeheartedly. I wrote him a letter and poured out my heart. It cleansed me and allowed me to move on. Now I'm able to look back on our 25 years together and remember the good times. The bad stuff is no longer overshadowing the past and I feel so much more at peace now. Not forgiving someone, whether they ask for forgiveness or not, can darken one's heart. Don't let that happen. Forgive, and then forget. It will free you.

Let it go

And when you stand praying, 

if you hold anything against anyone, 

forgive them, so that your Father in heaven may forgive you your sins.”

Mark 11:25 NIV

This verse makes me think of all of the times I've held out for an apology from someone. Those instances are usually the result of that person verbally hurting me. Once you've said something, you can never unsay it; the best you can do is apologize and talk about it and try to do better from then on. But, sometimes the apology never comes and it's just expected that the hurt person should just "let it go" because "Joe was just being Joe" (which is never an excuse IMO). I can read this Bible verse and move on, maybe carrying the hurt with me for a while longer, but in the end, I need that apology and so it's up to me to talk to "Joe" about the incident so that we can both move on.
(I'm sorry to be so vague with my examples, but these are family members who read my blog sometimes).

Forgive one another

We make mistakes. Then, hopefully, eventually, we repent (otherwise, we must not consider them mistakes). We expect others to forgive us; we know God will forgive us, but how easily do we forgive others? I know some non-Christians who are so judgmental they seem unable to forgive. Once someone crosses them, that's it. There is no conversation and if there were, it would be completely one-sided because they can't or won't hear out the other person.  I'm praying for them this week; praying that they learn to forgive and to become open-minded, empathetic individuals. Maybe you have someone similar in your life whose inability to forgive others is causing strife and pain. Or maybe you're having a difficult time forgiving someone who's hurt you. Or maybe there's someone in your life who won't forgive you. Whatever the circumstances, let's pray that we learn to forgive one another just as Christ forgives each of us every hour of every day.

In this manner, therefore, pray:

Our Father in heaven,

Hallowed be Your name.

Your kingdom come.

Your will be done

On earth as it is in heaven.

Give us this day our daily bread.

And forgive us our debts,

As we forgive our debtors.

And do not lead us into temptation,

But deliver us from the evil one.

For Yours is the kingdom and the power and the glory forever. Amen.

“For if you forgive men their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you. But if you do not forgive men their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses.

Matthew 6:9-15 NKJV (Emphasis mine)

Chronological Reading Plan Week 40

Chronological Reading Plan

We start the New Testament. This should be interesting to read it chronologically.

Week 40
274. Luke 1; John 1
275. Matthew 1; Luke 2
276. Matthew 2

Love is

 Love is patient, love is kind. 

It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.

 Love never fails. But where there are prophecies, they will cease; where there are tongues, they will be stilled; where there is knowledge, it will pass away.

1 Corinthians 13:4-8 NIV

Traveling today

Today we're traveling home. A nine-hour drive without stops, but I need stops so maybe more like 10 hours and we lose an hour traveling East. This was a wonderful, relaxing trip. I love visiting here; the people, the town, family. I'll miss them.
Thank you all for your patience this week; starting tomorrow the posts will be at 7 am again.
Pray for love, family, and peace. Pray for those you love and those whom you've lost touch with.

“This is my commandment, that you love one another as I have loved you. Greater love has no one than this, that someone lay down his life for his friends. You are my friends if you do what I command you. No longer do I call you servants, for the servant does not know what his master is doing; but I have called you friends, for all that I have heard from my Father I have made known to you. You did not choose me, but I chose you and appointed you that you should go and bear fruit and that your fruit should abide, so that whatever you ask the Father in my name, he may give it to you. ...

John 15:12-17 ESV

Family feud

I have some family members who keep to themselves most of the time. No one knows why they don't come around so we speculate, usually assuming it's because of an overpowering spouse, or because someone said or did something years ago that hurt their feelings, or that the person(s) just doesn't like us (even though we're family and "like" has nothing to do with anything, in my book). But then something or someone will draw them out and they'll have a great time and we'll get to exchange stories and laugh and love one another. Why would anyone want to miss out on that? Contact the hermits of your family; don't let them slip through the cracks.

If you are having a dispute with a family member, resolve to work it out right now. Reach out. Tomorrow will never come. There's only today.

Bearing with one another and, 

if one has a complaint against another, 

forgiving each other; 

as the Lord has forgiven you, so you also must forgive.

Colossians 3:13 ESV

Join me in praying for family this week.

Care for your parents

I think getting old must be the most difficult part of life. For those who were raised to not ask for help, to always be strong and independent, it presents a lot of internal conflicts and pushing oneself to do things we should no longer do.
   Older people have to constantly prove themselves capable and "with it" to those who see grey hair and wrinkles and assume the person standing before them can't hear or comprehend what's being discussed.
   There's probably a nagging worry in the back of their minds that their children will put them in a nursing home and walk away. Their freedoms and choices will be stripped away.
   Wherever your parents live, make time to visit them, call, email. Ask if you can do anything for them, especially moving and lifting and repairs. They need you just as much (if not more) as you need them. They get lonely, bored, depressed, and anxious. Think about how you want to be treated when you're the age they are now.

So in everything, do to others what you would have them do to you,

 for this sums up the Law and the Prophets.

Matthew 7:12 NIV

Join me this week in praying for family.

Family time

Last Saturday my family and I took off for a small town in Missouri to visit with family for the week. The population is 1255 people as of the 2017 census and it seems like most of the town is related to one another and the rest of the town at least went to school with a relative of ours. People can look at me and know that I'm related to the Clarks which is both heartwarming and disconcerting (jk). My mom is the eldest of 7 children and those 7 children had a total of 20 kids. The next three generations would take some time to calculate, and I'm sure I would miss several people anyway. Some of them I've never met and there are even some that I don't know exist. Last Sunday at least 40 of us got together for a meal and to catch up. It was like no time had passed between the decades when we last saw some of my cousins until now. We were able to pick up where we had left off.
   Even though it's an obvious thought, it occurred to me that unlike friends, relatives can't choose one another (except certain circumstances such as adoption). We are either born into a family or join a family through marriage. God perfectly connects us to one another and provides us with the human relationships we need in this life to prepare us for the next. We are all sons of Adam and daughters of Eve; we are all related. Family is so important and yet they're often the ones we treat badly, argue with the most, and take for granted.
   When I started this week I didn't have a theme for our prayer group and my schedule has been a little crazy since I'm on vacation and in a different timezone. I was stressing about it at first but then I realized that I need to enjoy this time here with my family and not worry so much about being wordy or even punctual online this week. Next week I'll be back to posting on schedule and be able to focus better on writing. Until then, join me for the rest of the week in praying for family.

And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love.

1 Corinthians 13:13 NIV

Teach your children well

Train up a child in the way he should go;

Slow to anger

Know this, my beloved brothers: 

let every person be quick to hear, 

slow to speak, slow to anger; 

for the anger of man does not produce the righteousness of God.

James 1:19-20 ESV

The darkness

But whoever hates his brother is in the darkness 

and walks in the darkness, 

and does not know where he is going, 

because the darkness has blinded his eyes.

The sword

You've heard the saying, 'Those who live by the sword will die by the sword.' It comes from the Gospel of Matthew:

Then Jesus said to him, 

“Put your sword back into its place. 

For all who take the sword will perish by the sword.

Matthew 26:52 ESV

I'm not sure we'll ever know for certain why the shooter killed all of those innocent people in Dayton. Not that the answer would make things better. Some of us from my office went to lunch at the Trolley Stop yesterday, driving past Ned Pepper's for the first time this week. It was sobering.  A chill shot through me. Seeing it on TV was one thing, but being there, even just for a few seconds in a moving car filled me with so many simultaneous emotions. I felt anger at the killer for bringing this darkness to our city, for doing this heinous crime that will change so many lives forever. I felt sorrow and fear and grief. And I do want to know 'why' even though it can't possibly make sense to the average person. The victims and survivors didn't deserve this; no one deserves to die in this senseless manner for whatever senseless reason the killer made himself believe. It breaks my heart.

Step One

Last night I was watching yet another show about mass murders and what we can do, what we should do, and what our lawmakers need to do to prevent this from happening again ("America Under Assault: The Gun Crisis"). The host/moderator (Chris Cuomo) said something I hadn't thought about...There's no one thing that can be done to stop this. It will take several different measures, but since we can't implement all of the measures at once, no one (in government) wants to do just the one or two things that they can do right now because it will be ineffective. I'm greatly paraphrasing what he said, but I believe that's the gist of it. Why can't we phase in all of these measures one by one, or two by two? At least if we take that first step, then someday, maybe, we'll be like other countries and not have mass murders be a common occurrence anymore.

For out of the heart come evil thoughts, murder, 

adultery, sexual immorality, theft, false witness, slander.

Matthew 15:19 ESV

Submit yourselves therefore to God. 

Resist the devil, and he will flee from you

Weapons of mass destruction

Police photos of weapon used in Dayton shooting

Why are these types of weapons available to civilians? The common excuse is that if they weren't, people would just modify other weapons to do the same thing. That tells me that they're only needed for mass shootings.

During the Assaults Weapon Ban (1994 - 2004) the number of mass shootings was an average of 1.5 per year according to several online news sources. "There have been 2,128 mass shootings since 2013, roughly one per day."

Nine states: California, Colorado, Connecticut, Hawaii, Maryland, Massachusetts, New Jersey, New York, Vermont, and the District of Columbia have banned large-capacity ammunition magazines. We'll see if it makes a difference, although, without it being a federal ban, a determined person would just go to a neighboring state.

A soft answer turns away wrath, but a harsh word stirs up anger.

Proverbs 15:1 ESV

Now, who do we know who uses "harsh word(s)" and "stirs up anger"? Who do we know who is in the news every single day calling people names, spreading lies, promoting racism? This has got to stop!

Thank you Greg Zanis

This man, Greg Zanis, is on his way to Dayton, bringing crosses he made for each of the victims of Sunday morning's shooting in the Oregon District. Yesterday he was in El Paso.  He's been doing this ever since his father-in-law was murdered in 1996, delivering his first mass-shooting memorials to the victims of Columbine. I remember seeing him on the news back then and had no idea that he would be making 1,000s of these in a decade's time. It turns my stomach that so many have died and still, nothing's been done. Nothing's changed except for the fact that these shootings have become common-place. I feel like our government is more concerned about themselves than the people they were hired to serve. They don't care about us. They can't relate to us and what we go through.

Thank you Greg Zanis for caring. Thank you for your memorials; they mean something to us as a community as well as to the victims' families and friends. We need to see this selfless, giving act in the wake of such a horrible demonstration of what hate can do to a nation. We need acts of love.

For this is the message you heard from the beginning: 

We should love one another. 

Do not be like Cain, who belonged to the evil one 

and murdered his brother. 

And why did he murder him? 

Because his own actions were evil and 

his brother’s were righteous.

Mass Shootings

We need to talk about this, but I'm speechless. I was born in Dayton and have lived here my entire life. This sort of thing doesn't happen here. How naive of me to think so. I want to write something of substance about this but the words just haven't been coming, and I don't want to rush it. It's taken a while for it to even sink in. Tonight I'll try again to transform seemingly chaotic thoughts into sensible words. Until then, continue to pray.

And for your lifeblood I will surely demand an accounting. 

I will demand an accounting from every animal. 

And from each human being, too, 

I will demand an accounting for the life of another human being. 

“Whoever sheds human blood, by humans shall their blood be shed; 

for in the image of God has God made mankind.

Genesis 9:5-6 NIV

This was the Google homepage this morning; being from Dayton, I appreciated the ribbon.

It says: Our hearts are with the victims, families, and communities of El Paso & Dayton.

Earthly suffering

Whatever we suffer from in this life is so minute when you understand that we will live forever in God's Kingdom.
Imagine holding a rope in one hand and the length of the rope hidden in your grip represents your life on earth. Then, imagine someone taking the other end of the rope and wrapping it around the world over and over again. All of the rope except what you hold is your heavenly existence. How wonderful is that?! This life is just boot camp for our future service in the presence of God. We're here to worship Him and love Him, to love one another as ourselves, and to spread the Good News to all nations. After that, we'll leave all of the sufferings of this life behind and join Him where there is no suffering and no tears forevermore. Hallelujah!

For I consider that the sufferings of this present time 

are not worth comparing with 

the glory that is to be revealed to us.
