It was our first date, I spent half the afternoon getting ready and making sure my outfit was just right. I was a little nervous because we were friends first before we decided to move to “dating” ……click here to continue reading.

In Other Words and come visit me at Internet Cafe….
This week the bible verse that was selected for memorization was Psalms 118:22 (NIV), “The stone the builders rejected has become the capstone.” To be honest I like how the King James tells it,
“The stone which the builders refused is become the head stone of the corner.” (Psalms 118:22, KJ)
I know the words rejected and refused pretty much mean the same thing, but to me the word refused shows more of a deliberate action taken by the builders. When I looked up in Strong’s what each word means I got:
The stone which the “established” “rejected” is become the “chief” of “rulers.” Psalms 118:22
I came home from an event one day last week and all the way home I was saying to the Lord, “Father, I just don’t fit.” It is a group I will remain around because of my kids involvement, but as an adult it is hard.
Then I got to thinking, Father did you feel like that? Here He was there to save every person on the entire planet, but yet he felt like a stranger in a strange land. I can not compare my feelings to what Christ went through, but we all have felt rejection in some form or another. And no matter what the degree, it still hurts.
Did people only seek out Christ because of the miracles he was able to perform or the healing he was capable of? Did they only see what He can do, not who He was? When in reality Christ wanted them to see deeper; to see Him for what he was, the Savoir. Just like he asked Peter, “Who do you say I am?” Many saw Him as a prophet or Elijah returned, but Christ desired to be known for who He was, “the Son of the living God.”
When I was driving home I kept saying, I have the feeling these people see me as a Mother who is not very active in the scheduled functions (even though I make sure my kids are). But part of me wants to stand up and say, “Please see me for who I am, a mother of three boys, going in three different directions, trying to have God lead and direct my life. Should I be more active in front of people instead of the computer screen, possibly…… but right now this is the ministry Christ has led me to. Personally, it has been an answer to prayer, I wanted to make a difference for Christ, to get his word out but also be able to physically balance my household and be there for every homework assignment and or emergency.
Being misunderstood, feeling not accepted, even among your own kind of people. Why should I expect to feel any different, isn’t this a very small account of what Christ said we should expect?
“They gave our Master a crown of thorns. Why do we hope for a crown of roses?” Dr. Martin Luther

“Laurel close those blinds, we are like fish living in a fish bowl with the blinds wide open,” my Mom would always say. So I would pretend I was a fish and swim over to close the blinds. As a little girl I would lie in bed and look out my window staring at the moon dreaming that my future prince charming was looking at the same moon. (click on over to read the rest…)
