Bogged Down?

Life's cares bogging you down?
Time for review of the situation
and possible change in direction.

To Carry. . .or to Cast?

To Carry, or to Cast? That is the question we all face from time to time. Our flesh/ego/whatever has us thinking that we can handle whatever comes our way, and that it is a sign of weakness to ask for help. However, the truth is that when we are weighed down with cares and have difficulty moving forward, He wants us to call out to Him - for burden carrying is one of His specialities.

Cast your cares on Him. . .for He cares for your soul.

Where's the Pin Cushion?

In Proverbs 31, there is reference to where the “jewel divinely rare” makes fine linen, sells it, and then delivers it to the store. This scripture reminds me of Dorcas, the benevolent seamstress of the Bible. I imagine she could whip up an outfit in no time, and her garments probably looked as good on the inside as on the out. Not many of us can do that but thank the Lord it isn't a requirement to being a child of God. However, I do believe that we should be able to sew on a button. But please, no safety pins unless it is an absolute emergency.
Why did I mention PINS !!??!! Well, there was an occasion when my girls, Kellee and Alisha, were getting ready to go to a senior youth camp. Both had a couple of favorites they wanted to take but were in need of repair. All went well until I got to a certain black skirt. Before I could sew the hem back in, the safety pins had to be removed. Would you believe there were enough pins in that skirt’s hem to fill a whole pin cushion? Plus, there was a ruler's length of scotch tape and a couple of staples to extract too. No wonder every time my daughter wore the skirt, it glistened brightly at the bottom. I still chuckle to this day, and have the hardest time ever using safety pins on anything – emergency or not. LOL

Now I said all that to say this - for us to be usable jewels, we must keep our garment mended. Don’t pin it, scotch tape it, or staple it. Use needle and thread (i.e., prayer and fasting) removed from our pin cushion (i.e., the Bible) to do the job right. In order to please Him, we can’t let our garment unravel or fall apart, and surely not be weighed down with pins (i.e., cares of this life).

....Happy Mending….

Lull-Lull Land

The Cares of Life Sometimes Lull Our Senses.
We think - Peace and Safety.
Then - WHAM - Sudden Destruction.
That is why we must always be Watchful and Pray (for we don't know when we may find ourselves in a position where we are oblivious to the sights and sounds of our enemy).
