Playing Hookey

Okay I confess!!! It is 9:00 a.m. and I am playing hookey!( Is that how you spell that word?) As it is the first day of spring and even though the thermometer says 34 degrees which to any sane person is obviously still winter, I fell that I may possibly be justified in my course of action. Then again, maybe not! Sometimes I really hate being a GROWN-UP!

 

I think my tantrum is over now.

 

If you have a moment here is some scripture to consider today: Luke 8:40-55. Our women's Sunday School class is studying the book Legacy of Biblical Womanhood,by Susan Hunt and Barbara Thompson and are looking at the truth of our being daughters of the King. This passage is used to illustrate the point. This ceremonially unclean woman,unfit for worship by the law, by the Grace of God is made clean and called daughter and told to go in peace. The authors make this statement,"In this brief address to an unnamed woman,Jesus shouts the gospel.He ushered a stranger into a familal relationship with God the Father and with His other adopted children. He renamed her,healed her,and commissioned her to go in peace."pg92. We are really just like her,outside of the family of God ,in need of Life and healing and he brings us in,,gives us life and peace and calls us daughters and sons. That is God's goodness and faithfulness to us .                      AMEN
