Who Will You Serve?
July12
After the boys said their night time prayers, JB looked at me and said, “Mama I will always love God and serve God.” Caleb, 3 at the time, said “I’m not gonna serve God.” “You’re not? Caleb, everybody serves something or somebody whether they think they do or not. Who are you going to serve?” “I’m gonna serve myself.” Yet again, my children have wrapped up the whole Spiritual truths. We either serve God or we serve ourselves through whatever pleasure we want. How many people have I watched be devoured by their sin and then say, “Why does God let me suffer?” “Why has God done this to me?” We really are stupid people sometimes.
I came across your blog while Googling “Joni B”, a line of women’s clothing. (Grateful for my latest Goodwill find!)
I just want to tell you how encouraging it is to read of your love for The Lord. As a seasoned grandmother, I can tell you that there is no greater joy than knowing your children are walking with Him, as John tells us in 3 John verse 4. I have every confidence you will reap this joy in your children! Blessings from my heart to yours.
