Training Hearts Pledge

We are a Christian family desiring to raise our children with the primary focus of Training their Hearts.

• "I have no greater joy, than to hear my children walk in truth. III John 1:4

• "Train up the child in the way he should go; and when he is old, he will not depart from it." Proverbs 22:6

• "Oh, that their hearts would be inclined to fear me and keep all my commands always so that it might go well with them and their children forever!" Deuteronomy 5:29

Thankful Thursday- Late entry

Posted in Thankful Thursday

I sat here last night trying  to get a post out for Thankful Thursday. It wasn't working. My pc was not cooperating with me and my attitude wasn't right. So I turned the computer off and headed to bed.
I know what I wanted to post on and so today, with the pc and my attitude adjusted I think I will give it another shot. So here goes.


Romans 8:35-39 (King James Version)

 35Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword?

 36As it is written, For thy sake we are killed all the day long; we are accounted as sheep for the slaughter.

 37Nay, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him that loved us.

 38For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come,

 39Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.



Yesterday we started class as we usually do with the Keys for Kids devotional. I like to listen to Uncle Charlie tell the story with the children.  I sat and listened  (best I could) and found myself in thought of all God has brought me and my family through. I thought about how no matter what we go through in life, what is thrown our way, what wrong decisions we may make ( I have made so many), none of these things cause the Lord to stop loving us. It doesn't matter if we have millions in the bank or no bank account at all He loves us just the same. Whether we are in the lowest valley or on the peak of the highest mountain, his love is unchanging towards us. If we are preaching His word to the nations or right here in our home He loves us the same. Whether we are on cloud nine spiritually or walking in the driest desert, His love is there with us no matter where we are in life. Through the storms, through the rain, the fire, the winds, the battles, the triumphs, the defeat, through all of it His love remains the same. Nothing, absolutely nothing, shall separate us from His love. While I was yet a sinner, Christ died for me (Rom 5:8).  To me that is amazing.
Today I thank God for his unchanging, unending love, unmovable, and unconditional love. Without this I surely would not be who I am today. I could not mother my children if it were not for the love that Christ has for me. I could not love my husband without the Love of God in my life. I could not be a friend (worth having) had I never felt this love first from my heavenly father. I could not trust had he not shown me how through His love. His love has forever changed my life.

Prayer:
Dear Lord,
I thank You for your love towards me. I thank you that nothing can separate me from your love. I thank you for loving me in the good times and the bad. Lord, I thank you for loving me enough to correct me when I need it and to lead and guide me in the paths that you would have me to go. May I live a life that is pleasing in your eyes. Please forgive me Lord for the times I have taken your love for granted and let you down. Help me Lord to share your love with others in a way that will lead them straight to you. In Jesus Name I pray, Amen.

Have a great weekend in Christ Jesus.

Stacy,
First thank you leaving an encouraging comment on my blog...I wasn't going to post this week but the Lord impressed it upon my hear to do so...I am so thankful I did.
The Lord's love amazes me! I cannot fathom it and I cannot imitate it but I can allow His love to flow through me as I surrender my life to the Holy Spirit. Praise His name that He blesses us in this way...we are so unworthy but He does it anyway because of the pressure blood of Jesus. Makes ya want to jump & shout & sing!! Hallelujah!!

I love especially Romans 8:38...it totally sums up when Paul is saying that absolutely nothing can separate us from Him.

I also want to say "Amen" to your prayer. My my life be pleasing aroma to Him....

Thank you so much for sharing your grateful heart with us this past week, despite the fact that you at first had a hard time.

Blessings to you and your precious family.
