Comment on Pray…think….deliver (part II) by Nancy Chase

You are right on with this one, Melissa, and you are in good company. Or should I say you have LOTS of company?? I find myself hardly taking time to breathe when I pray sometimes because I’m in such a hurry. The best times are when I have the house to myself and can sit with a cup of tea and my Bible. Then I take a deep, relaxing breath, releasing all the tension. Next I pray using ACTS (Adoration, Confession,Thanksgiving, Supplication). Then I read the Bible and try to let it sink in. (It takes awhile when you have a thick skull!) Then I pray again, thanking God for his insights and answers and showing me HIS way. I always come away on a spiritual high. The hard part is finding the time alone. Sometimes it’s in the morning, sometimes midday and sometimes midnight; but it’s always special. I just wish it were more consistent.

I often pray on the run as I call it asking God for immediate help and guidance. I know I need to slow down more and take more time to just talk with Jesus.

How fun!!!!! You look lovely, but then you always do. Beauty shows thru from the inside out, and it radiates from your very being, Melissa! And what an amazing daughter you have. You’ve done a wonderful job raising both your son and daughter, and now you are experiencing the part every parent waits for…”her children arise and call her blessed.” Proverbs 31:28

Comment on New study on “The Shack” beginning tonight. by Nancy Chase

I began reading The Shack several months ago but never finished it. I have the bad habit of starting 2 or 3 books at once. I will return to it and keep up with your blog. The question I would ask God? Easy. “Why in the world did you make men and women so completely different??? Surely you knew they were going to have to live together!!” Also, “Why couldn’t you automatically build into parents and grandparents AT LEAST as much energy as you gave little children?” Of course, He would probably ask me why I don’t take better care of myself, since my body is, after all, the temple of the Lord.
I definitely see God in the beauty and awe of creation and how everything works so perfectly, like a well-oiled machine. Sometimes it amuses me when scientists make major “discoveries” which God had planned all along. Take the human body for example. Just a coincidence how it keeps plugging along even with all the abuse we heap on it? I hardly think so. God is definitely in control, and I’m so glad he is!!

Happy Birthday, Teddy! I don’t know when I’ve seen your mom look so happy and healthy. Good for her…
I can’t believe you actually attempted fondant frosting. Is there anything you haven’t tackled?????
