We Remember...

 Heavenly Father, today we remember September 11th and all the lives that were forever changed. We lift up the families who lost loved ones, the survivors who still carry the memories, and all those who answered the call to help that day.


Lord, comfort those who continue to grieve. Give strength to the families who still feel the pain of their loss, and bring peace to hearts that carry difficult memories. We are grateful for the courage, sacrifice, and selflessness of the first responders and ordinary people who helped others in their greatest time of need.


May we never forget the lives lost, the heroes who served, and the love and unity that followed such tragedy. Please watch over our nation and keep us safe. Help us to choose kindness, compassion, and love for one another.


In Jesus' name, Amen. πŸ™❤️πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡Έ

Happy Anniversary....

 In Heaven my ❤️ love 


Today, my heart is missing you more than ever. I think about all that you are missing… watching our 6 kids grow into adults and become the amazing people they are today, and all of our 13 beautiful grandchildren who you would have loved so much.


I think about the future we dreamed of together—the rocking chairs we were supposed to sit in on the porch, side by side, growing old together and watching our family grow. That was supposed to be us. ❤️


Not a day goes by that I don’t miss you and wish you were still here to share in all of these precious moments. I hope somehow you know how much you are loved and missed.


Happy anniversary in Heaven, my love. Until we meet again, you will forever be in my heart. ❤️πŸ•Š️

ich liebe dich ♥️

Terrific Tuesday

☕️

Employees ask, "Did I do enough?" Children live from belonging. That difference is everything when it comes to how you relate to God.


Paul writes that God "predestined us for adoption to sonship through Jesus Christ, in accordance with his pleasure and will" (Ephesians 1:5). Not reluctantly. Not because He was short on options. It pleased Him.


It's easy to slide into relating to God like a boss instead of a Father, especially if you're wired to be useful. You know how to show up. You know how to fix what's broken, provide for your family, keep everyone on schedule, make sure everybody's okay. Those are good things. But if being dependable quietly becomes the way you prove you're valuable, you'll eventually turn even your relationship with God into a performance review, hoping for a passing grade instead of resting in a place at the table.


Adoption means you didn't earn your seat and you can't lose it by having an off week. You can bring God your tiredness, your short temper from last night, the argument you're still replaying, and you don't have to manage His opinion of you while you do it. A child runs to a parent with a skinned knee without wondering if he's still welcome in the house. That's the access adoption gives you.


This is worth carrying into your family today, too. The same grace that lets you stop performing for God is the grace that can help you stop needing your spouse or your kids to perform for you. You don't have to run your house like a business that only rewards output. You can build a home, like God built a family, where people belong before they perform.


Today, when you're tempted to measure your standing with God by how the day is going, remember: you're not an employee waiting on a review. You're a son or a daughter, already home.

God bless
