Happy Mother's Day!

The influence of a mother upon the lives of her children cannot be measured.  They know and absorb her example and attitudes when it comes to questions of honesty, temperance, kindness, and industry.  - Billy Graham


Listen, my child, to...your mother's teaching.  What you learn will crown you with grace and clothe you with honor.  Proverbs 1:8,9 NLT

I Love You Month

I've got three big hearts around three bigs days this month!!!!  One is Feb 12th, which is me and Sean's 9th wedding anniversary!  The second one is drawn around the 14th, which is "I Love You Day!"  Last, but not least, our due date is Feb 17th!  What an exciting, love filled, God blessed month!!!!!!  


ON LOVE:  

Agape love is selfless love...the love God wants us to have isn't just an emotion but a conscious act of the will...a deliberate decision on our part to put others ahead of ourselves.  This is the kind of love God has for us. - Billy Graham 

1 John 2:5  But whoso keepeth his word, in him verily is the love of god perfected:  hereby know we that we are in him.

Commitment

Our preacher, Mr. Bates, urged our church to make a commitment yesterday during service.  It's sorta like a resolution for the New Year.  He asked all of us to commit to reading our Bibles 10 minutes a day, memorizing scripture 10 minutes a day, praying 10 minutes a day, and handing out 30 tracts a month.  Well, I have made the commitment.....and I'm pressuring Sean to commit, too!  :)  lol  We pretty much do all of it already, but we have never handed out tracts before, therefore, Sean's hesitance in making the commitment.  It is very scary, I admit, but I'm excited to do it. 

Now, may I encourage you to make the same commitment for 2013!!!!  :)
