God knew I needed some time tonight I think, to pray, to read. Zack spoke this morning....he definitely spoke to an adult audience, I found myself praying praying during his storytelling time and during his elaboration on scripture that God would speak to our boys, that they would be protected from what they shouldn't hear. But the scripture, I desire mercy, not sacrifice and his focus on grace were awesome. He talked about Hosea and his marriage and how we are purchased for good and not for pain. I prayed and prayed to apply these words well in my life but also that God would use his word to lift the veil on the deception that surrounds us....we are the light!
He also talked about how most of the world isn't going to come to church, therefore we have to go, not to invite them to church, but to love them, serve them and by the grace of God maybe be allowed to talk to them about our savior but maybe not, we shouldn't have an ulterior motive, we should just be the hands and feet of God. I pray that God will use AWP in this way, will use me and our boys in this way. I see God using you to do this so often.
Just went up to tuck the boys in, dresser drawers pulled out all the way, dirty Kleenex everywhere, books hidden in brothers bed, mysterious water all over, Julian had hit his knee on brothers bed then flipped over his own bed and hit his knee again, big blue bruise ---
typical night ;)
We miss you, hope today was amazing!
