Ephesians Week 6

-
 Ephesians 5   5  1  Follow God’s example, therefore, as dearly loved children   2  and walk in the way of love, just as Christ loved us and gave himself up for us as a fragrant offering and sacrifice to God. 3  But among you there must not be even a hint of sexual immorality, or of any kind of impurity, or of greed, because these are improper for God’s holy people.   4  Nor should there be obscenity, foolish talk or coarse joking, which are out of place, but rather thanksgiving.   5  For of this you can be sure: No immoral, impure or greedy person—such a person is an idolater—has any inheritance in the kingdom of Christ and of God. [ a ]   6  Let no one deceive you with empty words, for because of such things God’s wrath comes on those who are disobedient.   7  Therefore do not be partners with them. 8  For you were once darkness, but now you are light i...

Christian Conflict - Colossians 4

For  several months I have been pulling myself out of my warm, toasty bed at the crazy time of 5:20 a.m. to meet a group of -oh-so-worth-it ladies at 6:00 a.m.   Being so-not a morning person, I hesitated to begin a group at this time, but this was the best time for all of the other moms.  We have journey through several studies and today, we completed our study on Colossians.   This is the end of Colossians 4.   Many of us thought this wasn't necessary to study, but KNOWING God's word is living and breathing and useful for all training, I knew there had to be more than meets the eye.   ...and is there! Final Greetings 7  Tychicus  will tell you all the news about me. He is a dear brother, a faithful minister and fellow servant [ a ]  in the Lord.   8  I am sending him to you for the express purpose that you may know about our [ b ]  circumstances and that he may encourage your hearts.   9  He is coming with On...

Goodbye 2012. Hello, 2013

My class put on a Christmas play and my son, John-Michael, was a wise man.  I think the children  learned things, had fun, and made memories.   We were sad that Albert, the goat at Save The Horses, ended up dying from Goat Polio.  We was well loved and will certainly be missed.  I tried my hand at pet portraits over Christmas break.  Hopefully, they  will improve the more I do them. It was fun though.  The children eagerly awaited Christmas morning.  John-Michael's favorite gift was a drum set.  Madeline's favorite gift was a karaoke machine.  And ... Noah's favorite gift was a couple of Wii U games.   It certainly has been louder in my house. :)  Dirk, our 10 year old Schoodle had unexpected surgery. We noticed that he have several knots on his chest and back and a red growth in his mouth. He hasn't had his stitches out yet, but the pathology report showed the knots were just cys...
