You do not disgust God.
He knows everything about you.
And He loves you.

You are not a stranger to God. You are not someone whose condition He does not or cannot or will not understand. You are not a prop who is only interesting to Him until loving you takes too much. You are His beloved child. He claimed you as His own in the moment you were washed in the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ. No matter how much you may wear yourself out with your own sins, God has already destroyed them all and He is not tired from doing so. No, He remains the same. His desire to welcome you into His kingdom has never changed and never will. The compassion of your God has no limit.

@HeatherACofer In my current life station, I’m around so very few young mothers and families, so hearing your insight and experience is a treasure.

[Taylor Garms @TaylorGarms]

@HeatherACofer I’ve truly been loving your insights into motherhood. Thank you for pouring out your wisdom and God’s truth, painting what sometimes is depicted as a fearful burden as instead a precious privilege and worthy calling.

@MattBraynard This was awful and unacceptable, @MattBraynard
and @LookAheadOrg. These were unsolicited sexual and soft porn images invading our personal phones. So offensive, and a total let-down from conservative campaigning!

I truly believe that Trump's victory tonight was an act of divine intervention, and I thank God that we now have the opportunity to turn this country around.

But now isn't the time for resting on our laurels, the work has only just begun.

@BMcGrewvy I’ve seen it too many times to count this year. (That’s me soaking it in at 2 AM on a picnic bench. 😂) It’s an incredible experience— hope it’s yours tonight! 🤞🏻

In discouraging circumstances? Here's some timeless encouragement from Andrew Murray (1828–1917):

1. God brought me here. It is by His will that I am in this confined place. In that fact I will rest.
2. He will keep me here in His love and give me grace to behave as His child.
3. He will make the trial a blessing, teaching me the lessons He intends for me to learn and working in me the grace He means to bestow.
4. In His good time He can bring me out again. When and how He knows.

Murray's summary:

“I am here, (1) by God's appointment.
(2) in His keeping.
(3) under His training.
(4) for His time.”

[Wade Thomas @wadethomasjr]

Every child has his heart trained in what is good and what is bad, what is praiseworthy and what is shameful, over hours and hours and hours of small, sometimes imperceptible human interactions. Values are imparted to children through the thousands of little incidents and occurrences that involve the people they spend the most time with. An adult says to another child nearby, “Tommy, we don’t do that.” Three kids snicker at a little remark their buddy just made. A beloved grown-up smiles at a little girl’s answer to the question “What’s your favorite movie?” The big kid in class laughs at you when you tell him what your dad does for a living. All of these little interactions form what a child thinks is normal, what is desirable, what he or she is supposed to be like and is supposed to want. And a few minutes of Bible teaching a week are unlikely to undo all that assumption-training that happened for hours and hours Monday through Friday.

What a child actually thinks is good and worthwhile, down at the bone level, is bred by what his buddies joke about and what the adults he’s told to trust most admire and what gets him praised at the place where he spends most of his time, not merely by what happens at the end of the day after the bus drops him off at home or the end of the week when he’s with his church. In Deuteronomy, God tells His people that since people’s hearts can be deceived to turn from Him to other gods, they are to teach His words to their children when they are in their houses, when they are out and about, when they are going through the normal rhythms of their days. In other words, because hearts are malleable, we should make instruction about God and His ways a continual feature our kids’ days. Why are we learning math? Because God is wise and rational and made a world where math works. Why are we learning about energy and mass and gravity? Because God made a predictable world with these traits in it. Why are we eating lunch or running to the grocery store or playing with Legos in the basement? Because He made us and sustains us and is blessing us today. But, since hearts wander and are prone to being deceived, if we have our kids souls and affections shaped, daily, by an institution that assumes goodness and truth can be accounted for and achieved apart from God, we shouldn’t be surprised if they end up assuming it themselves.

When we enlist a school to help us with the education of our children, we need to take stock of the fact that we are not simply delegating someone to teach our children facts. We are also delegating them to train our children’s affections. Kids can pick up on what people really love. And young kids are going to assume that what the trusted people love is worth loving. They’re going to think that what the grown-ups we’ve given them to like and desire and smile about merits that reaction. Why would Mom and Dad give me to these people every day and tell me to listen to them if what they love and follow and live for isn’t right?

We delegate about half of our children’s waking hours Monday through Friday to these people and institutions called schools. We let them instruct, discipline, and shape the little hearts of the young souls we are ultimately responsible for, souls who are still figuring out what the world is and what the right way to live in it is. We cannot send our kids somewhere for that significant a portion of their lives and not expect it to form what they think is normal, what is honorable, what is healthy.

All schools make disciples; it’s simply a question of what kind.

[Allie Beth Stuckey @conservmillen]

Yes. This is why I will still vote Trump despite abhorring what he’s said about abortion in recent months.

Every election is a choice between the lesser of two evils. In this case, Trump is, by far, the lesser of the two evils.

It’s about order vs. disorder. Order is good. Disorder and chaos is bad. Bad for us, bad for our kids and their kids, bad for the neighbors we are called to love.

Kamala’s support of borderlessness, lawlessness, the genital mutilation of gender-confused kids, locking up pro-life grandmothers, and taxpayer subsidized 9-month abortions will all breed further chaos and death.

Trump’s immigration, foreign and economic policy have and will promote greater peace, stability, and security.

I don’t like calling abortion a “state’s rights” issue, just as slavery isn’t a “state’s rights” issue. It’s a human rights issue. However, the 2024 Dem platform calls for passing a federal law guaranteeing the “right” to abortion, which would essentially prevent states from restricting abortion at all. Horrifying.

All in all, the good that can be preserved and forged in a Trump presidency is far greater than any good that could come out of a Kamala presidency. I’m voting to fight for whatever goodness that can be won.
