Five Minute Friday...Fight

I'm joining a group of bloggers who have a word and write for five minutes... Explained here:

GO

I hear the word FIGHT it brings up all kinds of thoughts about family.  And usually it involves my parents church.  And what they consider the proper thing to be done in any given situation.  And how they feel the need to cut people off.  If you do something they disagree with...poof, you are gone.

How is this what Jesus would want?  Didn't he regularly spend time with the unclean?  The prostitutes, the tax collectors.  How are we to share the love of Christ if we stay away, sheltered in our own little world?

STOP

New Year, New Me...Once Again!

My last post was a year ago when I shared my One Word and promised to post more frequently.  Well, you can see how well that worked!  In my defense (or my excuse!), we added two new grand babies this year and I have become "the Nanny" for one!  So while I have been spending time with Audrey, which I love, I need a writing outlet.  So, I'm back.  At least as of today!  :-). So here we go...

My One Word for 2014 is STILL.  As in, be still.  God has really impressed upon me my need to just shut up and listen to Him.  So we are starting there!
