Why doesn’t the Pledge have God in it, or was that a small mistake?
Good evening, Hawaii...((HUGS))...it’s really cold here. Hope you have nice sunny weather.
Don’t look now, but that plane on the taxi way is missing a wing.
trying to use a laptop and touch pad that is overly sensitive but, HI!!!!!
Why is it taking my hair so long to get dry? I wondered. As usual, I was in a hurry, and I didnt want to go outside into the wintry weather with wet hair. Then I realized the problem. I had changed the setting on the hairdryer to warm instead of hot to accommodate my nieces preferences.
I often wish I could control the conditions of life as easily as I can change the setting on my hairdryer. I would choose a comfortable settingnot too hot, not too cold. I certainly wouldnt choose the heat of adversity or the fire of affliction. But in the spiritual realm, warm doesnt get the job done. We are called to holiness, and holiness often involves heat. To be holy means to be set apart for Godseparated from anything unclean or impure. To refine and purify us, God sometimes uses the furnace of affliction. The prophet Isaiah said, When you walk through the fire, you shall not be burned (Isa. 43:2); he didnt say if. And the apostle Peter said that we should not be surprised by trials (1 Peter 4:12).
None of us knows when well be called to walk through the fire or how hot the furnace will be. But we do know this: Gods purpose for the flames is to purify us, not to destroy us.
