Thoughts on Figuring it Out

Be in it to end it. President Obama said this about the issue. There's no denying the awful reality when a man desperate for work finds himself in a factory or on a fishing boat or in a field work, toiling for little of not pay and beaten if tries to escape, that is slavery. When a woman is locked in a sweatshop or trapped in a home as a domestic servant, along and abused and incapable of leaving, that's slavery. When a little girl is sold by her impoverished family- girls my daughters' age- [or] runs away from home, or is lured by the false promise of a better life and then imprisoned in a brothel and tortured if she resists, that's slavery. It is barbaric and it is evil, and it has no place in a civilized world.  http://iipdigital.usembassy.gov/st/english/article/2012/09/20120925136587.html#ixzz2KdlShxQ7 Join the End Movement here:  http://enditmovement.com  More to come later.

‎"He will swallow up death forever. The Sovereign LORD will wipe away the tears from all faces; He will remove His people’s disgrace from all the earth. The LORD has spoken." Isaiah 25:8

"Men go abroad to wonder at the height of mountains, the huge waves of the sea, the long course of rivers, the vast compass of the ocean, the circular motion of the stars; but they pass by themselves and they don't even notice."  -St. Augustine  "For you created my inmost being;   you knit me together in my mother’s womb.  I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made;  your works are wonderful,   I know that full well.  My frame was not hidden from you  when I was made in the secret place,   when I was woven together in the depths of the earth.  Your eyes saw my unformed body;  all the days ordained for me were written in your book   before one of them came to be."   - Psalm 139:14-16

Oh MY GOSH! I LOVE this video! Watch it and apply it. :)

Today is Good Friday. Why do we call the day that Jesus died GOOD Friday? Why not like Sad Friday or Bad Friday? I asked my dad he said well what do you think? Friday: The Day Jesus Died (Or at least we think) Good: Usually when you think of someone dieing it is a sad affair. But for Jesus this was a good death. This death covered the sins of everyone who will ever live or has lived. Today is the day we remember Jesus' Death on the cross. How much he loved us to go through what he did. You can read about it here . Today just take some time to reflect upon what Jesus has done for you and thank him for it.

I am reading through the gospels and just started Mathew. It was going through Jesus' genealogy and in verse six (part b)of chapter one it says " David was the father of Solomon, whose mother had been Uriah's wife. In 2 Samuel chapter eleven it tells us that David saw a woman bathing and she was beautiful. He sent someone to get her and they slept together, after she had gone home she sent word to David and told him she was pregnant. David had Uriah put in the front line of a battle and he was killed. David later had Bathsheba (Uriah's wife) brought to him and she became his wife. Her son was Solomon. Jesus came from him. Why did God choose an adulterous to have Jesus come from? I think it was because God wanted us to know that he can make good come from bad. Just think about it. What do you think??

I was able to plan crafts (craft team) that the children will keep and that will remind them of the experience and the gospel.
