I spent the last weekend partly with my daughter in her home with her family...and partly with my daughter in New Orleans hearing Beth Moore expounding on 1 Thessalonians 5:12-24
The Holiness of Wholeness:
1. The essence of holiness is wholeness-verse 23
2. I can't be a whole person without other people-vs 12-15
3. Wholeness releases persistent joy-verse 16
4. Wholeness relates through persistent prayer-verse 17
5. Wholeness reacts with persistent thanks-verse 18
6. Where I lack wholeness, I lack protection-verse 23
7. God is wholly faithful, and I am found holy in Him-verse 24God is worthy of our trust!
It was, as always, a wonderful time of praise and worship with Travis Cottrel and team. It was a great time with the group from my daughter's church.
As great as that was, the highlight had to be seeing my second grandson baptized and participating for the first time in the elements of the Lord's Supper. It was great spending time with all four of my grandchildren which you can learn more about on My Daughter's Blog.
I've heard the term "Living With Cancer". I couldn't apply that to myself. I wasn't fighting cancer in my body like some. I'm now accepting that term for myself--not in a defeatist way--in a proactive way. This is the plan God has for me. It's not what I would have chosen for myself, but I want to know what God means for my purpose in this. This blog is my journey and testimony of God's faithfulness each step of the way.
