A Glimpse into Our Weekend

A Glimpse into our Weekend | Faith and Composition Whew, it’s been a bit quiet over here! The mister was out of town for a few days last week, and my mom came down from Missouri to share some time with us and help out while the hubbie was away. And while she’s here, well, we play … a lot! Needless to say, there weren’t many moments spent composing blog posts.

But the air was crisp, flag football was played, we walked a bit of our new land (we’re going to be building soon!), soup simmered away on the stove, and on Sunday we went on a lakeside hike. It really was lovely. Here are a few glimpses of our hike through the lens of my iPhone (all images captured with myiPhone 5). If you follow me on Instagram, you may have seen a few of these. And speaking of Instagram, I’m currently taking part in Embrace the Camera, a challenge to get out from behind the lens and in front of the camera. If you’re an Instagrammer, join me. It’s been a lot of fun!

Three years ago, my brothers and I with our famili Three years ago, my brothers and I with our families met at a vacation home to surprise our parents for their 70th birthdays. It’s still one of my favorite memories, and the older I get, the more I realize what a true gift it is to simply have everyone beneath one roof.

Don’t looks away. Don’t silence the headlines. Don Don’t looks away. Don’t silence the headlines. Don’t close your ears to the anguished cries of people created in the image of God.

Now more than ever, bring these people before the throne of God. Get on your knees and pray with fervor for the people of the Middle East. For their protections. For their freedoms. For their wholeness. For their salvation and their sanctification. 

Pray that the darkness would be banished and the light would dawn. Pray that the Gospel of Jesus Christ would go forth. That it would take root in hearts across the region and bear fruit. Pray that chains would drop, that slaves would be set free, that captives would be liberated. Pray that the goodness and the grace of Christ would saturate the hearts of people who are living in darkness. 

And do not tell me that prayers don’t work. Because ultimately the struggle in the Middle East is not against flesh and blood. It’s against “the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms”. (Ephesians 6:12) And the only way to fight a battle against the spiritual forces of evil is to get on our knees and fight it with the tools of spiritual warfare. 

(This isn’t a political post, and comments that seek to incite political hate one way or another will be deleted.)

For the one who feels like you don’t measure up … For the one who feels like you don’t measure up … at home, at school, at life, at work. Consider these three things, then set your mind on Christ.

1️⃣ Where am I finding my worth?

It’s easy to define our worth by the world’s standards … success, wealth, influence, intelligence. But these standards will always leave us empty because they rely on WHAT we are, not WHO we are. When we allow our worth to be defined by who we are as a child of God and a daughter of the king, it radically changes our understanding of our value.

2️⃣ What voices am I allowing to speak into my life? 

Are we constantly listening to voices of the world? Or are we seeking the truths of scripture and the life-giving affirmations of other believers?

3️⃣ Am I cultivating a heart of gratitude? 

It’s tempting to feel like we don’t measure up when we fail to cultivate gratitude for what we do have and for the intricate ways God has gifted us. When you start to feel the threat of comparison or inadequacies seeping in, combat it by thanking God for all he has so graciously gifted you!
