I have been crucified with Christ and I no longer live, but Christ in me. The life I live in the body, I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me. I do not set aside the grace of God, for if righteousness could be gained through the law, Christ died for nothing!
Galations 2:20-21

Sep. 24, 2008~ What Is Sin? ~
“Take this rule: whatever weakens your reason, impairs the tenderness of your conscience, obscures your sense of God, or takes off your relish of spiritual things; in short, whatever increases the strength and authority of your body over your mind, that thing is sin to you, however innocent it may be in itself.” Susanna Wesley (Letter, June 8, 1725)
Could there be a better answer than this?
As I ponder this quote and all it entails I am almost overwhelmed at the realization of how much I sin. I am grieved that I take so much away from my Lord. I am also elated at the same time. Knowing that He loves me anyway- that He picks me up when I fall - that He not only walks beside me but in front of me to guide my very steps. He has walked every path before me.
I am a wife to a man who can do everything (Lovingly referred to as MacGyver), mom of 10 (1 married in, 1 almost married in and one adopted in) and a Nana to 4.
I am all about growing in Christ, family, handcrafts and the art of homemaking. My newest passion is knitting.
We live on a small homestead in NE Washington. Raising pigs, chickens and goats, growing a garden and revamping an older home.
