My Jerusalem

He said to them, "Behold, we are going up to Jerusalem"

"In our Lord's life, Jerusalem was the place where He reached the culmination of His Father's will upon the cross."

It is our goal in life to find and follow His Will, and go toward our "Jerusalem."

"Nothing ever diverted our Lord on His way to Jerusalem. He never hurried through certain villages where He was persecuted, or lingered in others where He was blessed."

I don't know where my Jerusalem will be, but I know that The Lord will lead me there, if I am not diverted by things on this earth. I pray that we keep our eyes on Him so that we can follow Him, and "By the Lord's grace, end in glory."

-My utmost for His Highest

Just a little chuckle :)

Roger Renfroe-Jones Kincaid

The meanest boy in the fourth grade
Is Roger Renfroe-Jones Kincaid.
He's meaner than a junkyard dog.
He's meaner than my sister's frog.
My sister's frog ate my friend, Brown,
And all Brown did was fly around,
Then land on top the frog's dumb head.
Brown licked his wings and 'THWACK! ' was dead.
My sister's frog is called Boo Bear;
Though he's a frog and not a bear.
But bears get mean when they're afraid,
Like Roger Renfroe-Jones Kincaid.

Busy as a...

These days, life is filled with athletic work, school work, running, cooking, and reading! Lots of FULL days! Lovely days!

But...

my strength lies daily in God's Word, without which I'd be in trouble.
Thank you Lord for giving us what we need for the tasks you've given us!
