I'm "Mr. Momming" it for the next three days as my wife makes a quick trip back to the state where my in-laws live, North Carolina. Pray for my kids. 🙂
(P.S. I'll bet people in North Carolina are just as sick as all those in Kansas after tough NCAA losses this past weekend.)
Anyway, I really enjoyed the reading today. It's a great section of Scripture to jump back into if you've stopped for whatever reason…
- God wants to know He's more important to you than anyone, including your husband, wife, kids, or best friends (Deut 13:6)
- Learning to tithe (i.e. give 10%) from ALL income sources is CRITICAL to cultivating a Biblical fear/awe of God (Deut 14:23)
- Becoming debt-free is a life-changing experience. It puts relationships back on equal footing. (Deut 15:1,6)
- "Is this GOD's fight?" That's the most important question to ask before diving into conflict. (Psa 108:11)
- One sign that you have a healthy, non-dysfunctional view of God is that you do tell Him exactly how you feel (Psa 109:22)

I wanted to share some thoughts on the above quote from Pastor Tim. I believe all of us have had or experience some sort of dysfunction. I embrace the dysfunctionality (is that even a word) that has been present in my life for as long as I remember. It is out of this dysfunction that I have to wholly lean on the Lord. Without Him I would be nothing, with Him it makes the journey here on earth tolerable. I don’t know how one functions without that relationship with Christ. He is my hope that there is something sooooo much better waiting for us in heaven. I know I have so many blessings. . .I know I am here today because of God. I thank the Lord for bringing me up in a Chrisian home–thankful that He is with me (us) until the day we return home.
