BOM:
Kids attitude towards death and heaven. Example of my daughter Molly. We told her about her grandmother dying and that she is in a much better place with God in heaven now and she simply replied: “that’s great! Can I have a waffle now.”
She got it, she simply knew that her grandmother was in a better place, that she is with our father in paradise. A comforting fact that we can bank on as believers.
It can also motivate us to reach out to the lost and help lead them to eternal peace and fellowship with other believers in paradise.

BOM:

Shared an excerpt from a book by Rosaria Butterfield, a one-time LGBT activist, and now a born-again Christian and mother of 4.  She tells the story of a time she was asked to tone down her message and stop calling sin a “sin”, but rather to just say that it’s her personal opinion.  Her answer:

“I responded by letting them know that I am not smart enough to have this opinion, but that this is the position the inspired and inerrant Word of God upholds.  It comes to me from the historic Christian church…through the pages of Scripture, and so on down to me.  I told her that changing my message would involve denying the plain meaning of Scripture, the testimony of the church, the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus, and the gospel.  But to the postmodern mind…her request seems reasonable enough:  just own this position of mine as a personal point of view.  But claiming something that is a universal truth to be a mere matter of personal preference is a lie by omission.”

I shared with the PAX that this is something I struggle with each and every day.  Too often, I take the easy way out when discussing biblical truths and couch them as my own personal opinion during a difficult conversation.  Our challenge as we continue to put God first this year and ourselves last is to stand on our faith…even when it’s uncomfortable…and not take the easy way out by claiming “it’s just my opinion”.  As Christians we should be confident in sharing our beliefs as well as the truths they are based in.

Keep it moving

BOM

Hebrews 12:1-13

“…Run with endurance the race that is set before us, looking to Jesus, the founder and perfecter of our faith…” Head into the rest of your day joyful that you are justified by Jesus, but don’t forget the 3 rd F. Physical fitness is valuable, but faith and godliness are of higher value. Work on becoming the image of God (through His Grace) just like you got out of bed this morning to work on your physical fitness.
