God with Skin On
May 27, 2018
Share with the Lords people who are in need. Practice hospitality.
Romans 12:13
My husband left for a month-long trip, and almost immediately I was overwhelmed by the needs of my job, our house, and our children. A writing deadline loomed. The lawn mower broke. My children were on school break and bored. How would I take care of all of these things on my own?
I soon realized I wasnt on my own. Friends from church showed up to help. Josh came over to fix my lawn mower. John brought me lunch. Cassidy helped with the laundry. Abi invited my kids over to play with hers so I could get my work done. God worked through each of these friends to provide for me. They were a living picture of the kind of community Paul describes in Romans 12. They loved sincerely (v. 9), considered the needs of others rather than just their own (v. 10), shared with me when I was in need, and showed hospitality (v. 13).
Because of the love my friends showed to me, I remained joyful in hope and patient in affliction (v. 12), even the mild affliction of solo parenting for a month. My brothers and sisters in Christ became what one friend calls God with skin on for me. They showed me the kind of sincere love we ought to show to everyone, especially those in our community of faith (Galatians 6:10). I hope to be more like them.
God, thank You for placing us in communities. Help me to look out for others needs and to show hospitality.
Share your ideas of hospitality at odb.org.
To whom do I need to be God with skin on today?
The practice of hospitality is a key teaching in the New Testament. Jesus told His disciples to depend on the hospitality of those they ministered to (Matthew 10:11; Luke 10:78). Jesus also received hospitality from others (Mark 2:15; 14:3; Luke 7:36). Mary and Martha opened their home to Jesus (Luke 10:38), and this is probably where He stayed each time He came to Jerusalem (see Matthew 21:17). Luke mentioned a group of women who were helping to support [Jesus and the twelve disciples] out of their own means (Luke 8:3). The apostle John commended Gaius for his cheerful generosity and loving hospitality because he provided itinerant Bible teachers a place to stay (3 John 1:58).
When we lovingly support ministry workers in practical ways, we are their partners in ministry (v. 8). Therefore, Paul urges us, When Gods people are in need, be ready to help them. Always be eager to practice hospitality (Romans 12:13 nlt). Peter echoed the same sentiment: Most important of all, continue to show deep love for each other . . . . Cheerfully share your home with those who need a meal or a place to stay (1 Peter 4:89 nlt).

To: All
Dear God: I ask that no Airman, Coast Guardsman, Marine, Sailor, Soldier, Reservist, National Guardsman, or Merchant Marine feel alone or forgotten.
O Israel, hope in the Lord; For with the Lord there is loving kindness, And with Him is abundant redemption. And He will redeem Israel From all his iniquities.
Psalm 130:7 & 8

Memorial Day is very special to me as it brings memoiries of riding to DC on the Harleys and honoring our Vietnam Veterans as a part of Rolling Thunder. My late husband and i did it nine years in a row.

He Who blessed our forefathers Abraham, Isaac and Jacob - may He bless the fighters of the Israel Defense Force, who stand guard over our land and the cities of our G-d from the border of the Lebanon to the desert of Egypt, and from the Great Sea unto the approach of the Aravah, on the land, in the air, and on the sea.
May HASHEM cause the enemies who rise up against us to be struck down before them. May the Holy One, Blessed is He, preserve and rescue our fighting men from every trouble and distress and from every plague and illness, and may He send blessing and success in their every endeavor.
May He lead our enemies under their sway and may He grant them salvation and crown them with victory. And may there be fulfilled for them the verse: For it is Hashem, your G-d, Who goes with you to battle your enemies for you to save you.
G-d bless and keep your children safe, Alouette.

There was a Memorial Day parade in my town and it's always a grand, patriotic event.
My Sister is in town so she, son and I headed out to the gun range this morning and then we all had lunch together afterwards.
I hope all is well your way.
