Just very busy with Adventure Camp. What a fantastic week with kids running around doing silly and wonderful things. Karen had a super group of helpers working with her to make our “Power Lab” at church work.<\/p>\n
It’s not my place to thank anyone, but everyone who helped made the burden lighter. They also helped make the “Good News” clear (like “visible”) in the way they lived their lives for<\/strong> the kids.<\/p>\n These past three weeks have been a whirlwind of activity. It was like one thing led to another – everything tied together. Rush from one thing to another – something every hour in our lives. Did manage to get away that one night just to catch our breaths.<\/p>\n Now it’s back to the “normal” things, and a little slower pace. <\/p>\n Got back to I John 2, and he pulled no punches. Even used a big word like “propitiation” to describe what Jesus is for our sins. This kind of goes along with the sermon yesterday (which talked about selfishness) when in verse 3 he says “we know if we know Him if we keep His commandments.” A hard measure to check myself against.<\/p>\n So, it makes me wonder if James and John got together in writing their letters. The old “faith and works” thing and the way I can know<\/strong> I know him.<\/p>\n Hmmm…Sounds like the measurement I need to apply to my life is based on what I know about His commandments. That implies (no demands) that there is a lot of reading for me to do just so I will know what His commandments are. It means living out (doing) what He wants me to do.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Just very busy with Adventure Camp.
