What we're capable of

 

As we wrap up this week of prayer, I wanted to briefly talk about, without getting political or upsetting anyone, what we as humans are capable of.
     My husband and I have been watching several Holocaust movies and documentaries lately. One thing that never occurred to me before was that people did an about-face and turned on their Jewish friends, neighbors, and co-workers. For some reason, I thought the Nazis just knew who was Jewish. I never even considered that people were turning them in. Maybe I didn't want to believe it. Anyway, you know what happened from there.
     In our own country, there have been other atrocities. There were the Indians. We had slavery in our country. We've turned on the mentally disabled, Asian-Americans (at least twice in our history), Mexicans, and others. We've demonstrated that we're capable of hatred toward anyone different. It doesn't even have to be skin color or religion. Look at the division between political parties.
     We allow ourselves to get stirred up against whoever is the newest target of choice. We blame them for our troubles. It has to be their fault we're experiencing this, that, or the other because it's certainly not me.
     Look at how often and how easily we're influenced by the views of others. How great would it be if we were more influenced by the views of God our Father?
     I've seen several Tweets lately about Jesus wouldn't do this or that if He were here. If it was an act of love, He most certainly would.
     Look within your own heart and pray to our Father for direction. If you're playing the blame game or having feelings of anger, resentment, bitterness, or hatred against anyone else, pray without ceasing. You can be a significant part of the solution.

And he said to him, “You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind. This is the great and first commandment. And a second is like it: You shall love your neighbor as yourself. On these two commandments depend all the Law and the Prophets.”
Matthew 22:36-40 ESV

The blame game
The man said, “The woman you put here with me—she gave me some fruit from the tree, and I ate it.”
Then the Lord God said to the woman, “What is this you have done?”
The woman said, “The serpent deceived me, and I ate.”
Genesis 3:12-13 ESV

For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God,
Romans 3:23 ESV

“For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life. For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but in order that the world might be saved through him. Whoever believes in him is not condemned, but whoever does not believe is condemned already, because he has not believed in the name of the only Son of God. And this is the judgment: the light has come into the world, and people loved the darkness rather than the light because their works were evil. For everyone who does wicked things hates the light and does not come to the light, lest his works should be exposed. But whoever does what is true comes to the light, so that it may be clearly seen that his works have been carried out in God.”
John 3:16-21 ESV

Please join me this week in praying for guidance. Let's ask our Father to show us our sin, to show us where we're at fault and how we can make things better in our everyday interactions with others. Let's also pray for softened hearts, discernment, and wisdom in all situations. Pray that God helps us become more Christlike so that nonbelievers will see us and respond by seeking Him.

Anger toward a brother

 

“If your brother sins against you, go and tell him his fault, between you and him alone. If he listens to you, you have gained your brother. But if he does not listen, take one or two others along with you, that every charge may be established by the evidence of two or three witnesses. If he refuses to listen to them, tell it to the church. And if he refuses to listen even to the church, let him be to you as a Gentile and a tax collector. Truly, I say to you, whatever you bind on earth shall be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven. Again I say to you, if two of you agree on earth about anything they ask, it will be done for them by my Father in heaven. For where two or three are gathered in my name, there am I among them.”

Matthew 18:15–20 ESV

“You have heard that it was said to those of old, ‘You shall not murder; and whoever murders will be liable to judgment.’ But I say to you that everyone who is angry with his brother will be liable to judgment; whoever insults his brother will be liable to the council; and whoever says, ‘You fool!’ will be liable to the hell of fire. So if you are offering your gift at the altar and there remember that your brother has something against you, leave your gift there before the altar and go. First be reconciled to your brother, and then come and offer your gift. Come to terms quickly with your accuser while you are going with him to court, lest your accuser hand you over to the judge, and the judge to the guard, and you be put in prison. Truly, I say to you, you will never get out until you have paid the last penny.

Matthew 5:21-26 ESV

Am I my brother's keeper?

 

I was thinking about this yesterday, how we ask the question, "Am I my brother's keeper?" compared to how Cain asked it. I think nowadays, we ask the question in search of an answer. To what extent are we to take care of our brothers and sisters? But when Cain asked the question, he was backtalking to God. Can you imagine?! He just killed his brother and then was flip with God when asked about Abel. The question was pure callousness (IMO).

John MacArthur wrote: "Cain's sarcasm was a play on words, based on the fact that Abel was the "keeper" of sheep."*

*MacArthur, John (1997). The MacArthur Study Bible, New King James version.

     Thomas Nelson, Inc. Nashville, TN. 

Charles Spurgeon wrote: “The cool impudence of Cain is an indication of the state of heart which led up to his murdering his brother; and it was also a part of the result of his having committed that terrible crime. He would not have proceeded to the cruel deed of bloodshed if he had not first cast off the fear of God and been ready to defy his Maker.”

Yet, when God imparts His judgment, suddenly Cain is upset. In verse 13 he said, “My punishment is greater than I can bear." and another translation reads "My guilt is too great to bear," but seriously, there's nothing to indicate to me that Cain felt guilty for what he did. He had to have known that God sees all, knows all. Cain also had to have known that it was wrong. 

Then the Lord said to Cain, “Where is Abel your brother?” He said, “I do not know; am I my brother's keeper?” And the Lord said, “What have you done? The voice of your brother's blood is crying to me from the ground. And now you are cursed from the ground, which has opened its mouth to receive your brother's blood from your hand. When you work the ground, it shall no longer yield to you its strength. You shall be a fugitive and a wanderer on the earth.” Cain said to the Lord, “My punishment is greater than I can bear. Behold, you have driven me today away from the ground, and from your face I shall be hidden. I shall be a fugitive and a wanderer on the earth, and whoever finds me will kill me.” 

Genesis 4:9-14 ESV

     Today we need to be our brother's (and sister's) keeper. "See something. Say something." Be an advocate for those who can't or won't speak for themselves. When we take on that nurturing role, our hearts can't help but be filled with love for one another.

     I remember when I was a teenager, at least 16-years-old, my parents went on vacation and left my brother, Kevin, and me home alone for the first time ever. Kevin developed some weird something on the roof of his mouth. I about freaked out. I didn't know what to do. My concern was for my little brother and making him well; I didn't want to contact my parents because I wanted to show them that we could take care of each other on our own. There also may have been a tiny bit of worry that I fed him something wrong that caused this condition.

     After calming down, I thought, "What would mom do?" and I called the doctor. They got us in right away (probably because of my panicky voice). It turned out it was the result of too much sugar and it would go away in a few days. My point is, as much as my little brother and I argued, when it came down to him needing me, I was all in. This isn't to boast, this is to point out that no matter what you have going on with your siblings (or anyone), you are responsible to try to help them, and you should want to, as a Christian, and a member of the human race. Some people cannot, will not be helped, but if that's the case, give it up to God.

     To be fully transparent, I write this even as I know my heart is turned against certain people who give me so much grief. It's something I'm constantly working on. I used to think I couldn't talk about something unless I overcame that something, but I don't think like that anymore. We should share our struggles as well as our triumphs. In this way, we let others who are struggling know that they're not alone. Social media makes people think that everyone else has it all figured out, that everyone else is happy. My goal is to show the opposite, in a way. I want people to know that I'm just like them with the same issues and worries. I slip and fall, then get back up over and over again. I don't have it all figured out and I never will, but that's okay.

Love one another

 

Update - not necessarily on topic, but it may circle around as it often does (thank you, Jesus)...I had four moles removed from my face, and one from my neck late Monday. The last time I had this done was twenty years ago, and it was just two from my face. I remember that I still went to work, still went to school, and still took care of my daughters, the house, etc...and so assumed it would be the same this time. Nope. 

     Either because of where they were removed from, or five versus two, or being older, (or maybe I'm just not remembering last time very well), this time seems a lot different. Granted, it's only the morning of day 3, but still--my face hurts and is interfering with my 'to-do' list.

     I'm not sharing all of this for sympathy but to share God's sovereignty. If I weren't in pain, I'd be jamming in as much as possible into each day instead of taking it easy like I need to in order to heal.

     Once I realized this, I quit grumbling and started thanking God for taking care of me (which I should have been doing anyway). He is so good to me, and to all of us. We are His children. He loves us, unconditionally. He wants us to love one another, and live in unity. Everyone is your brother and your sister. Love one another accordingly.

Love one another with brotherly affection. Outdo one another in showing honor.

Why do you pass judgment on your brother? Or you, why do you despise your brother? For we will all stand before the judgment seat of God; for it is written, “As I live, says the Lord, every knee shall bow to me, and every tongue shall confess to God.” So then each of us will give an account of himself to God.

Pray for siblings

 

I heard a story this weekend of a family torn apart. I don't know the details and couldn't share them even if I did. What I do know is a family that was once close is now alienated from each other and it all began with an event between two siblings.

     It's hard for me to look at my brother, a hard-working responsible adult who gives me hugs and says, "I love you, Sis," and see the emotional, sometimes angry, sometimes messed-up kid who I grew up with. But every once in a while he'll giggle like he used to as a child, or get emotional or angry and it takes me back. We have a history together that I don't have with anyone else. We share secrets, memories. It's a special bond that holds us together. 

     We disagree on many things which is okay. We disagreed on many things as children, too. We've hardly seen each other through the pandemic, but when we did, we picked up right where we left off. I can't imagine a situation where either of us would do something that the other one would want to completely break ties. Yet it happens to families all the time.

     I am so blessed and so thankful for my family. It breaks my heart to hear of division among others. Let's pray for this special relationship this week. If you're an only child, think of someone close who you grew up with; a neighbor or a cousin, maybe. Someone who knows the real you.

I have become a stranger to my brothers, an alien to my mother's sons.

Inherit the wind

 

Please continue to pray for Donnie and his family. They ask for "peace and comfort and a peaceful transition to Glory with our Heavenly Father." 

***

"Inherit the Wind" is a play by Jerome Lawrence and Robert E. Lee which got its title from today's Bible verse, Proverbs 11:29 (I'm quoting from the ESV. They used the KJV back then):

Whoever troubles his own household will inherit the wind, 

and the fool will be servant to the wise of heart.

David Guzik, from EnduringWord.com, wrote, "To bring trouble to one’s own family is to prepare a future full of storm and difficulty. To inherit the wind is to have a future of storm and trouble."

How often do we make decisions that ultimately bring "storm and difficulty" to our households? How often are those decisions made out of anger, or spite, or haste? It could be a harsh word or an overt action; either of which has the power to fester and manifest into something that's seemingly impossible to overcome. Pray about anything that has come between you and someone else. I encourage you to make amends.

Into the sea

 

I need to learn how to do this ... "cast all our sins into the depths of the sea." What good does it serve to hold onto guilt? Who benefits from it? Does the Lord love us more if we wallow in shame for something He Himself forgave us for? Cast it into the depths of the sea. Let it go. Move onto something that will bring glory to God. Praise Him for His mercy and grace.

He will again have compassion on us,

And will subdue our iniquities.

You will cast all our sins

Into the depths of the sea.

Micah 7:19 NKJV

Please join me this week in praying for those who are carrying around guilt and shame, especially for those who are troubled with the past and can't let go, even though our Father has forgiven them.

The Accuser

 

Do you have something in your past that you just can't let go of? Something that continues to weigh on you years or decades later? Even though you've confessed the sin to our Father in Heaven, and felt His forgiveness, you just can't seem to forgive yourself?

     I have two events like that. Even though God has forgiven me, I can't forgive myself. For a long time, I thought that maybe I needed to share those parts of my life with others, but that just doesn't feel right, at least not right now. The people I have shared with were understanding and supportive, but it didn't lessen my guilt and shame. That was to be expected. If the burden was still there after God forgave me, then of course it would still be there after confessing to people who were uninvolved.

     My guilt was then compounded with the thought that 'who am I to not forgive sins that God has forgiven?' Jesus died a horrible death so that my sins would be forgiven. So, what did that say about my unwillingness to forgive? It's the same as not forgiving others.

     I now realize that it's Satan, the Great Accuser, who is causing me to hang onto these things, to make me feel bad about myself, to bring me down. Please don't let him do that to you. Recognize it and tell him to "go away." Pray for help and strength.

If we confess our sins, he is faithful and 

just to forgive us our sins and 

to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.

1 John 1:9 ESV

Self-proclaimed judge and jury

 

How did your week go? If it was anything like mine, it was full of ups and downs, triumphs and failures. The closer we draw to Jesus, the more Satan tries to pull us away. He uses whatever means possible to distract us. 

     My sin that God showed me was anger, resentment, contempt, and internal rage toward a person whom I view as evil. I was judging this person. My feelings toward him darkened my heart. You would not believe how many bible verses showed up in my various feeds about light and darkness. Since I was praying about this all week, and asking God for help, He was sending me messages of hope and inspiration through these verses.

     Whenever those sinful feelings began to resurface, or things went badly and I felt myself being pulled back into the darkness, I was able to recognize it as the work of the devil, and each time I told him, "No! Go away!" And he did!

     It's not my place to judge others. I'm a sinner, the same as everybody else. I will leave judgment up to God, and when I can't, I'll pray for help.

Therefore you are inexcusable, O man, whoever you are who judge, for in whatever you judge another you condemn yourself; for you who judge practice the same things. 

Romans 2:1* NKJV

*I wanted to post Romans 2:1-29, but that seemed a bit much. So, I urge you to take a few minutes and read it on your own.

Pray that He humbles us to acknowledge our sinful nature and our shortcomings, so that we can become more Christlike and better image-bearers to those God brings into our lives. Finally, let's pray that we have open hearts, softened hearts in order to not condemn others. Ask God how you can help others instead of judging and walking away.

What love is

 

Love is patient and kind; love does not envy or boast; it is not arrogant or rude. It does not insist on its own way; it is not irritable or resentful; it does not rejoice at wrongdoing, but rejoices with the truth. Love bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.

1 Corinthians 13:4-7

No hate

 

We've added family members to pray for so please read through the list and lift these brothers and sisters up as we continue to pray for the healing of family relationships this week, whether it's a need for reconciliation, forgiveness, healing, grieving. If you know of anyone specifically for us to pray for, let me know their first initials, or just their relationship, so that we can pray for them also.

Please pray 

- that daughter R soften her heart toward her mother.

- that daughter J reach out to her father.

- that daughter R not feel alone in a house filled with family.

- that relationships are strengthened in the M household, and mended in the G household. 

- for peace and comfort for everyone who has lost a family member this past year.

- that a married couple becomes "one flesh" as promised in Genesis. The wife feels they are more like roommates than soulmates. Her husband, C is either unable or unwilling to show her love.

- please pray for D and family.

- pray for mother S and daughter R that their relationship is strengthened.

- that relationships in the P family and R families are strengthened.

If someone says, “I love God,” and hates his brother, 

he is a liar; 

for he who does not love his brother whom he has seen, 

how can he love God whom he has not seen?

1 John 4:20 ESV
