The Bible tells us to confess our faults one to one another that we may be healed...we have the ability ot HEAL EACH OTHER by sharing our hearts and yet we dont. I wonder if Twitter FB Myspace ect have something to do with the surface relating we have going on. We try to project these witty snarky beautiful in one sentence or less personas. Now how does that promote any kind of true relationship? It promotes our egos. 1 John mentions love 26 times! Brother 13 times! The book is full of commands to love each other...yet were selfish...Sorry about the book...you hit a nerve!GThttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16879188128618674146noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7785239994537240122.post-60682752000635304952011-01-05T07:07:37.046-05:002011-01-05T07:07:37.046-05:00My husband's Uncle always asks "how are y...My husband's Uncle always asks "how are you?". People usually respond with the typical "I'm fine". Uncle J then places his hand on their shoulder, looks them in the eyes, and says, "now really, how are you?".<br />It is a beautiful thing when someone cares enough to move past the weather, football, and ham! <br /><br />RobinCAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7785239994537240122.post-76704913206551594192011-01-05T05:19:05.953-05:002011-01-05T05:19:05.953-05:00Oh, Ginger, your post is/has been my "burden&...Oh, Ginger, your post is/has been my "burden" for days (weeks, months, years) now. I even wrote recently to our Pastor's wife about this, but I think she just didn't get it. I spent my husband's devotion time this morning lamenting over this very thing. John 13:34-35 are life passages for me, and without them in our lives, there is not evidence of a true follower of Jesus. Thank you for posting this.<br />Loretta, Hebrews 10:24Servant of the Kinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13196494629481908797noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7785239994537240122.post-68957267372165185242011-01-04T23:50:47.082-05:002011-01-04T23:50:47.082-05:00I've been burdened for the Reece's Rainbow...I've been burdened for the Reece's Rainbow children, too. I would love to add one of the children to our family. I was greatly encouraged a couple of days ago, though. One of the boys that I had 'fall in love with' and blogged about, is home! Read the posts about completed adoptions for some encouragement.<br /><br />As for the superficiality of society, that will never change. I feel blessed in this manner, since our small church really does get into the deep stuff. You *can* answer queries truthfully, and expect to get some real compassion and prayer when you need it. Society in general, though, would never respond that way. I don't expect anything less than 'me, me, me' so I don't think much about it, I guess.<br /><br />We read this verse just this morning, I think it applies:<br /> <br />"Finally, all of you be of one mind, having compassion for one another; love as brothers, be tenderhearted, be courteous; not returning evil for evil or reviling for reviling, but on the contrary blessing, knowing that you were called to this, that you may inherit a blessing." 1 Peter 3:8-10MommaofManyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03652488613383365588noreply@blogger.com
