Yes, and we see what happens when one so completely allows God to own them when we look at the the lives of Enoch and Elijah..a literal death to self! I wouldn’t mind going out like that! Well said Dad!

Comment on Over The Top Christians? by Muffincruncher

I think that the ‘external’ Christian could not be classified as a Christ follower at all. A Pharisee maybe.

Comment on The Characteristics of Revelation by Lynn

This post is insightful, but what appeals to me even more is how practical it is. Discerning the truth of what is preached from the pulpit, the anchor desk, or on the Internet,can be a sticky mess for hearers not firmly grounded in God’s truth.
This concise list is a great tool to properly evaluate the content of another’s message.
If the timing of the message or the benefit to the speaker seems to be something of a ‘fortunate coincidence’ one may well question if it truly a revelation to be shared.

Comment on The Self-Seeking Heart by Laurie Grant

You described our desperate state well in explaining our ‘self-seeking’ heart. When we get to the point where we can truly see God’s sorrow over our selfish choices, then, and only then can we truly repent and accept God’s grace. Thanks for the wise words from you that pop into my email, always giving me a clearer picture of who God is and how much I am loved.

I did not know Papaw was a sharecropper. I loved your Dad and your Mom. They were always so good to me. Miss them both. Weird to be the lead generation now that our folks are all gone.

POWERFUL and MOVING STORY of a Father & Son.

Thanks Kristin. He was a good man but he had lots of emotional baggage (I suppose we all do) that came from a tough childhood. His parents were sharecroppers during the Great Depression and they moved a lot. I remember him telling me that when the family needed work his father would round up him and his brother and sister and they would go from house to house begging for work. I think he felt responsible for his family from a very early age and believed showing emotion was a weakness. I miss him.

I cried. I always loved your Dad. When I was little I thought he was John Wayne. I did not know about his drinking until Melissa lived with Anne. But I saw what you described. He was kind to me and I always liked him. I am so glad he was able to tell you he loved you there at the end. I am glad to know that happened. I like reading what you write. It is comforting.
