Word Is Out

"We who preach and write, do so in a manner different from which the Scriptures have been written. We write while we make progress. We learn something new every day. We speak as we still knock for understanding...If anyone criticizes me when I have said what is right, he does me an injustice. But I would be more angry with the one who praises me and takes what I have written for Gospel truth than I would be with the one who criticizes me unfairly. Augustine
Grace To all,

So much to share

I really don't know where to start...this morning started with the
news of 8 yr. old Stephanie having a rare blood disease...please pray for
her and her parents and brothers. They are on a new journey of trust with
God.
Then off to my favorite retreat, down the path, through a short
jaunt in the woods, to the canoe which I use as a table, overlooking the
lake. It is an idyllic setting. While there, I was reminded of God's care
for us in Isaiah 41:10 "fear not, for I am with you; be not dismayed, for I
am your God; I will strengthen you, I will help you, I will uphold you with
my righteous right hand."
Then I was reminded in the Psalms (62), to not set my heart on
riches but on God's steadfast love: "...those of high estate are a delusion;
...if riches increase, set not your heart on them. Once God has spoken;
twice I have heard this: that power belongs to God and that to you, O LORD,
belongs steadfast love."
Well, we have a guest this morning, so I must be off. May we all
catch of glimpse of our great and beautiful God today.
