Postcard Christianity
Read: Psalm 13
How long will You hide Your face from me. —Psalm 13:1
Bible In One Year: 2 Kings 10-12; John 1:29-51
When my husband and I visited Mt. Rainier, the highest point in the continental United States, I expected to see some spectacular sights. But for 2 days the mountain remained shrouded in clouds. So instead of taking pictures, I bought postcards.
Our vacation caused me to question the way I portray my faith to people around me. Do I present a "postcard" view of Christianity? Do I give the false impression that my life is always sunny—that my view of God is always clear?
That's not what David did. In the passion-filled poetry of Psalm 13, he admitted that he couldn't see God and didn't understand what He was doing (v.1). But by the end of his prayer, he was certain that what he couldn't see was nevertheless there because he had seen it before in God's bountiful care (vv.5-6).
Christians are like people living at the foot of Mt. Rainier. They've seen the mountain before, so they know it exists even when clouds are covering it.
When suffering or confusion obscures our view of God, we can be honest with others about our doubts. But we can also express our confidence that the Lord is still there by recalling times we've witnessed His grandeur and goodness. That's better than postcard Christianity. —Julie Ackerman Link
God, give us wings to rise above
The clouds of trial that block the sun,
To soar above gray skies and see
The love and goodness of Your Son. —Sper
When living under clouds of adversity, remember that the sun is still shining.

Good morning to all the Finest! I hope all our Mothers had a wonderful Mother's day, with special thoughts to the Mothers whose sons and daughters are serving. I visited with my Mother on the phone and look forward to taking her to dinner later in the week.
Speaking of our brave military...I found out last night that Ryan, the young friend who just returned from a tour in Korea, is being deployed to Iraq. He ships out in June and will be gone for a year. He's ready to get in there and rock 'n roll. Please keep him in your prayers along with all our other amazing men and women.
Also please keep the upcoming troop rally, Operation Enduring Support May 15, 2004 3pm - 6pm, in your prayers. The host has said a number of people have tried to discourage and dissuade him in the face of the Iraqi prisioner photos. Ankarlo is even more determined to carry on with the plan and I absolutely agree. Our troops need to know we are behind them and believe in what they are doing, now more than ever!!!
PS If anyone has questions about the rally please freepmail me and I'll get you the info. Thanks a million!
GOD BLESS OUR TROOPS!
GOD BLESS AMERICA!
GOD BLESS PRESIDENT BUSH!
GOD BLESS DONALD RUMSFELD!

Happy Monday. I like your idea of another thread. This is one of about 4 threads that are a pleasure to visit.
Also, your post #8 is awesome.
I'll be back later. Hope you all have a great day.
