how...

   do you handle a situation with 100% grace and 100% truth?  is that even possible?  i don't think so.  i'm not GOD.  so then, what does being full of grace and full of truth look like?  is truth at all measured by worldly standards? laws, justice, social mores etc.   ...or is the truth strictly biblical truth? then is it new testament truth not bound by o.t. law?  

can you tell i'm struggling with this? :/  
i probably shouldn't blog when i am in such a state of questioning....

Here's Your Sign...or is it?

So lately I've been asking God to show my husband and I what His plan is for our lives...in jobs, house vs. apartment, location, family, etc. However, I don't feel like I'm hearing anything. David's been looking for a job now since about November because his is supposed to end in June, which means we'll lose our insurance also. And with a baby on the way, this is not good. He has sent resumes out everywhere, and he hasn't received even as much as a call...until lately.

He is now in the top 40 to make it into the newest class of the fire department. The class started out with over 630 applicants, and now there is 40-some, of which they'll pick 20-30. And my questions lately have been this...is the reason we haven't heard as much as a call because God's plan is the fire department? Does God work like that? Or is this just a way that women get their hopes up for their husbands futures only to find out that things don't work out as we want them to? And are there times when our desires and God's plan match up? It says in Psalm 37:4 "Delight yourself in the LORD;And He will give you the desires of your heart." Now I know our desires won't always line up with His, but how do we pray to Him then...when we know our desire is one thing but we know His might be different? And should we expect Him to answer us when we pray, or how should we expect Him to answer us?

Do We Really Treat People the Way We Should?

While at the church planting conference last week i was listening to an innovative church planter (who denies being a church planter at all) say the following:

"We treat our people (visitors, guests, friends, neighbors, strangers) like they are Christians until they realize they are not."

Help me unpack the wisdom (or folly) in this statement, will you?

to break the silence

So because not much is going on with this blog, I thought I would come in and add some deep thoughts for you all. All I'm going to do is pose a question.

With the weather getting warmer each and every day, ( thank goodness) what's something that you enjoy doing outside in the warm weather?

I told you it was deep.

I know that this has nothing to do with worship, but I wanted to post something on here and I really didn't have any deep thoughts at the moment. The deepest thought I have right now is, 'what am I going to have for lunch'

But anyway, I hope you are all enjoying the beautiful day outside.
