A Picture Of Him
August 23, 2012
One day my son uncapped an orange marker and drew a picture of his father. His toddlers rendering featured eyes, a nose, and a mouth, all inside of a circle on top of two long sticks (he informed me that those were the legs). Although my little boy scored high marks for effort, his picture didnt quite capture the specifics that would have created a close likeness to my husband: blue eyes, a confident smile, and silver-flecked hair.
As Gods children, we sometimes create images of our heavenly Father that arent accurate. We may view God as unloving when He corrects sinful patterns in our lives. And because discipline is painful (Heb. 12:11), we may assume that Gods correction is a form of divine revenge or the result of His anger. In reality, it is proof of His love for us. The Bible says, Whom the Lord loves He chastens (v.6). He disciplines us for our benefit, so that we may be partakers of His holiness (v.10) and experience the peace that comes from right living (v.11).
Today, if you are facing Gods discipline, remember that He isnt peering down at you with an angry scowl or shaking a vengeful fist. Picture Him as a concerned Father, lovingly correcting His child in whom He delights (Prov. 3:12).
Lord, when I sin and You discipline me,
help me to see its Your love in action. May Your loving
discipline mold and shape my character
so that I become more and more like You. Amen.
Gods hand of discipline is a hand of love.
Read: Hebrews 12:3-11

Good morning, Everyone.
Good morning to our
Military, our Allies, and their families.
Thank you, Ma, for preparing the Canteen for today's activities
LOL...I'm looking at the boy's face in that Father & Son picture.
It says the beginning of the course and I'm thinking
that boy is not going to be happy at the finish.

In ancient Greece, where the mouse was sacred to Apollo,
mice were sometimes devoured by temple priests.(YUCK!)
Theodore Roosevelt was the first U.S. president
to ride in an automobile.
The first baby born on the Mayflower
during its voyage to the New World
was named Oceanus Hopkins.
The second child born after the ship set anchor
was named Peregrine White.
Taxi drivers in London, England
are required to pass a training test
based upon "The Blue Book."
Preparation for this test takes between two to four years.
Of ten who start, eight or nine drop out before completion.
