Wow...it sounds like you and your dear Mom covered the gamut! What a blessing to have your mom...and that she’s still “with it”! She sounds like she’s up-to-date on all the latest.

Although her eyesight is failing she still reads, AND corrects the spelling, grammar, and syntax of popular authors. One of favorite sayings is: “Doesn’t anybody PROOFREAD anything anymore????????”

She would fit in here at FR!

Happy Tuesday, Potlatch. I’m a little late getting here. This is a really busy time for me and Marissa is keeping me on the run.

She is in the 8th grade and is a busy, busy bee.

Thank you for the beautiful flowers. Have a delightful day.

This is so pretty, Meg. Thank you.

We’ve had a little rain ..... not nearly enough to make a difference in the drought. I’ve been praying that the storm makes its way to Texas.

Saturday Marissa and I went to see Disney on Ice. It was nice to get out and do something different.

Thank you for being here these past few days. I feel less guilty.

Wishing you a beautiful Tuesday.

“The most treasured gift we can give to God is one that He can never force us to give—our love.”

So true, Rus. Thank you for sharing ODB today and every day.

Have a Terrific Tuesday.

Of all the characteristics needed for both a happy and morally decent life, none surpasses gratitude.
Grateful people are happier, and grateful people are more morally decent.

The Telltale Heart

February 5, 2014

Read: 1 John 3:16-24

If our heart condemns us, God is greater than our heart, and knows all things. —1 John 3:20
Bible in a Year:
Exodus 36-38; Matthew 23:1-22

Recently I read about a private investigator in the US who would knock on a door, show his badge to whoever answered, and say, “I guess we don’t have to tell you why we’re here.” Many times, the person would look stunned and say, “How did you find out?” then go on to describe an undiscovered criminal act committed long ago. Writing in Smithsonian magazine, Ron Rosenbaum described the reaction as “an opening for the primal force of conscience, the telltale heart’s internal monologue.”

We all know things about ourselves that no one else knows—failures, faults, sins—that although confessed to God and forgiven by Him may come back to accuse us again and again. John, one of Jesus’ close followers, wrote about God’s love for us and the call to follow His commands, saying: “By this we know that we are of the truth, and shall assure our hearts before Him. For if our heart condemns us, God is greater than our heart, and knows all things” (1 John 3:19-20).

Our confidence toward God grows out of His love and forgiveness in Christ, not our performance in life. “We know that He abides in us, by the Spirit whom He has given us” (v.24).

God, who knows everything about us, is greater than our self-condemnation.

No condemnation now I dread,
I am my Lord’s and He is mine;
Alive in Him, my living Head,
And clothed in righteousness divine. —Wesley
The one who receives Christ will never receive God’s condemnation.
