God

Have you all ever felt like our religion is not what it used to be? I mean i know that all of us belive in God and all that but the differences within the churches confuses me. You find people that are upset with the church they are in(kids not adults). And you find people that use church as a cover-up, a crutch to fall back on when they know they're doing something wrong..."yes i'm sinning but its ok, i go to church". But that church is just another high school. I'm sorry this post probably doesn't make any sense. I just remember when i was younger and the song leader went right in the center of the congregation and let everyone turn and face the middle, then we sang It is Well With My Soul. You could see everyone, and we just weren't singing to the "front of the building" we were singing to uplift each other. That is what it is all about, it doesn't matter if you show up every sunday and wednsday in designer clothes and matching accesories; there are people that love the Lord in Wal-mart attire. Because someone has more money doesn't have a thing to do with there christianity. Or because someone's skinnier, or socializes more, or sings better, is younger, or even older. We are all the same to
God. And we need to be very aware that even if the Lord has blest us more than that person that sits all by themselves every service, it just might change their life if you go and talk to them

    I think in a lot of ways we have wrongly defined Christianity and need to go re-educate ourselves. Thanks for the great post! Did you find someone to watch Chariot Sat. night?

Food

I am so proud of my daughter!!! Some programs that we have been involved in have thought that she wasn't using her hands like she should. But today when i put her puffs onto her feeding tray she picked one up and put it into her mouth all by herself. Also she can do patty cake and "itsy bitsy spider" as well. She is so smart. But teething has taken its toll on the family and i need to get off so i can go to sleep. Surgery set for June 20.
Thanks for your prayers,
Rachel
  • beckdobbins
    That is so wonderful! I am glad she is doing so well with her hands, she is very smart. Hope the teething phase passes soon!

Chariot

Ok, so if most of you didn't know, my daughter was born with eleven fingers. So we have to go get it removed. The appointment to see the hand specialist is Monday and more than likely they will want to set up the surgery. My daughter is 8 months old and the type of surgery that they are doing is pretty extensive and anesthesia will be used so we need prayers and encouragement please.
A Very Strung Out,
Rachel Holland
