Happenings at the Lazy D Ranch
|
Sometimes God uses people who are not necessarily a functioning part of your life to chastise you. I have been convicted by another Christian sister that my comments were not kind nor loving toward the women that I wrote about in THE TALE OF TWO TABLES. After reading her message to me I admit that even though I do lead a much different life then the women at table two I did not show love towards them. Thankfully this comes at a time where God has been already working on my heart. Softening it to be more like Him. Loving one another is the greatest commandment next to loving God. As I was teaching my children that loving your brother or sister shows that you love God I was not being a great witness to them on how to do this. I have said this before but I am beginning to see more clearly how true this is: Homeschooling, family integrated, reformed, adoption, quiverful, etc does not make one greater then another. For the Eric has been reading I Cor. 13 nightly for us. It has not only sunk in but has become much more then just a passage read at a wedding. "If I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, but have not love, I am only a resounding gong or a clanging cymbol. If I have the gift of prophecy and can fathom all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have a faith that can move mountains, but have not love, I am nothing. If I give all I possess to the poor and surrender my body to the flames, but have not love, I gain nothing." So, Table two (you know who you are) please accept my sincere apology for not loving you as Christ would have me to. *This entry is similar to the one that I posted in the Tale of Two Tables entry. I have deleted the original message as not to cause any more strife and because it does not reflect my heart nor the love of Christ. |
