Thursday's Thoughts- Spiritual Freedom

Spiritual Freedom 


On this holiday, July 4th, we celebrate the independence of our nation. We remember those who gave their lives so we can live ours. This freedom is important, but our Spiritual Freedom is more important. 
What is spiritual freedom? It is believing in Christ and obeying His word and knowing the truth. 
Is it truly freedom? Some people say that Christianity is more like a prison than freedom, but I beg to differ. It is so refreshing to be able to believe that there is someone who will be with you and care for you no matter what. Sometimes it's hard to obey the Bible but remember that those rules were made to protect you, because God loves you and wants you to spend eternity with Him. Knowing the truth about God and His Word gives you a sense of love and freedom in Christ. 
Is it attainable? Absolutely! Pray, read your Bible and live your life with Christ and you will be free.

Winter Wonderland

This past weekend the weather decided it was about time that Arkansas had some snow. When it snows there's only one thing to do, go outside and take pictures! What you got there? I'd like some range cubes please. Make sure you get my good side. Oh yeah, there you go. Now, where is my food? Mom and Jacob think this looks like Mater from Cars. My baby is getting special treatment in the form of her own bucket of range cubes. Little Caffie is hunkered down and trying to stay warm. I'm not sure she likes this weather anymore than I do. My boy looks so pretty in the snow. You got that food yet? I'm STARVING. I love trees with snow on them. The world is white And at the end of a long cold day I get some Daisy snuggles. They are the best when it's cold outside. She is forever my baby. Snow is not my favorite because it's cold and it makes chores harder to do, but everything does look prettier.

Thursday's Thoughts- Would You Stand?

Would You Stand? I have a very important question for you. Would you stand? This sounds like a simple inquiry, but it just may prove to be one of the most difficult ones you will ever be asked. What if you are sitting in church Sunday morning and suddenly masked men burst through the door holding rifles? Imagine that the leader announces that anyone who doesn't deny Christ will be shot. Maybe half the church chooses to denounce God and leave, but will you? Will the threat of death turn you away from your faith? Let me tell you about three men in the Bible who let absolutely nothing get in the way of their faith.  Travel back to the Old Testament with me and see a man who set his faith in God. His name was Noah. God told Noah to build an ark because He was going to send rain to flood the whole earth. Any other man would have laughed because, up until that time, it had never rained before, but Noah and his sons got right to work. For years they labored while their friends and ne...
