It is Sunday. It is Super Bowl Sunday. Plans to be with friends tonight, which should be fun! But what I am really thinking about right now is how "Love Conquers All." This was the message today at Hosanna! Pastor Shea is amazing and I always love listening to him preach. The sermon series is Hot Topics, and last week was on sexuality, this week was religion, and next week is politics.
Religion. I LOVE my Lord and I seriously want to shout it from the rooftops! I want everyone to know what a LOVING Lord we have. I want everyone to ASK Jesus into their hearts, so we can all spend eternity in heaven. BUT not everyone receives this message very well. So, there are many times I just keep my mouth shut. I don't share what I know (but there are many times I share A LOT!). Today's message was to Live It. Live what I know through my actions, and THEN be prepared to answer the question of, "Why are you so happy?" or "What happened to you today?", then and only then will I share that I am filled with the Holy Spirit and LIVE for HIM!
How can I do this? Through my parenting. I need to show LOVE to my children, show them how Jesus would have cared for the children. I need to be PATIENT, UNDERSTANDING, CARING. I love my boys more than anything, and I want them to LIVE with the Lord in them as well. So far, I think they are doing a pretty good job...except when they are calling each other names, and hitting, and.....I could go on. But I LOVE the moments where they are just playing and laughing, and truly enjoying each others company!
I started this blog, wondering what I was going to blog about. Would anyone want to read what I have to say? What do people want to hear? What do I enjoy that I want to write about? What do I knowledge do I have to share with the world? How can I LIVE IT and SHARE IT?
Stay tuned, as I am going to try to help people out. Answer questions I may have, or have heard other moms ask. And I am going to try to do this by just LIVING IT!
Happy Sunday!
