Mental Blog

I have several blog topics running around in my head but nothing seems to work it's way past my brain to my fingers. So many things I want to say yet nothing ... so until I'm free of the mental block, I'll post some favorite scripture.

Okay, so I started this post this several days ago and didn't get anywhere. Does that mean I don't have any favorite Bible verses? Well, no because I could rattle off a number of favorites but I started a search on Bible Gateway because I wanted to find something new. Yet nothing "jumped out" at me. I am stumped. I think that means that I haven't been in God's Word enough lately. I could blame it on being a single parent (this week while Jim's out of town), a single working parent, a single working parent with a dirty house, a tired, single, working parent with a dirty house, etc. You get the picture. Nothing really seems adequate to say why I haven't been in the Word. Yet, God is here. God is speaking.

"I'm listening, Lord. Teach me."

Let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts, since as members of one body you were called to peace. And be thankful. Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly as you teach and admonish one another with all wisdom, and as you sing psalms, hymns and spiritual songs with gratitude in your hearts to God. And whatever you do, whether in word or deed, do it all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through him. Colossians 3:15-17

Compelling Love

For Christ's love compels us, because we are convinced that one died for all, and therefore all died. And he died for all, that those who live should no longer live for themselves but for him who died for them and was raised again. 2 Corinthians 5:14-15 A love so compelling brought life to the dead, sight to the blind. It is unimaginable to me that people choose to refuse such love. But it is because of that love that we are convinced that Christ died for all and it compels us to share this love with others. No matter the cost.
