It is the unbelief, the worldliness, unconsecration, and strife among the Lord's professed people that have kept us in this world of sin and sorrow so many years. Ellen White, Evangelism p.696

Oh that faith, consecration, and love would fill my heart!

Having a debate with my 7yo this morning, and he doesn’t believe me so
He says, “Just ask Google.”
And who told Google, I ask.
7yo: Siri
Me: And who told Siri?
7yo: Alexa
Me: And who told Alexa?
7yo: ChatGPT
Me: And who told ChatGPT
7yo: Google

Haha. I guess Google wins.

Do the right thing. And do it for the right reasons.

“The pure motive sanctifies the act” (SL, p9).

@michelsunlee I intentionally take up more space than is warranted by my size, recognizing that I'll ultimately probably have to give up at least half of that real estate... #lessonsfrombeingayoungersibling

@anthony_bosman @AdventistReview Thanks Anthony!

[Sikhu @hsikhu]

@triadelphiasda That was a moving story he shared!

@jonathan_walter Good taste in sermons @PastorDelthonyG 😁

[Sikhu @hsikhu]

@jonathan_walter CD Brooks' "I Want My Church Back." A homiletic masterpiece. I'm constantly drawing lessons from it!

One minute you're sobbing at the thought of Christ's selfless sacrifice, and the next, you're sternly reprimanding your kid for attempting to decorate the pew hymnal in ink.

Parenting is such a wild ride!

Just a word of encouragement to mothers out there:

"The sphere of the mother may be humble; but her influence, united with the father's, is as abiding as eternity. Next to God, the mother's power for good is the strongest known on earth."
AH 240.1

@BradSheppard1 Sadly too true 😞 After today, my husband @LifeInTheArch shared how a couple he was studying the Bible with only visited church once when a concerned Saint angrily "shushed" their restless toddler. They also stopped studying the Bible with him after that 😖

There's this woman at my church who scowls at me any time one of my children makes a squeak.

My kids are 6, 4, 2, and 11 months old. Invariably, one of them will make a sound during service.

Today was no exception. She responded as usual. I had had it.

@Inarosekatha3 That's so wonderful of you to go a step further and offer to help! I'm certain you have been the Sabbath blessing to many a wearied mother 🙌🏾

[Sikhu @hsikhu]

@Ryan_Musser1 The prayers are much appreciated and well received!
God bless you and your ministry 🙏🏾

[Sikhu @hsikhu]

@GinaWahlen Thank you for this special message of love! The negative experience is certainly an outlier 🙃

[Sikhu @hsikhu]

I'm convicted to pray for my scowling friend.
I don't know why she's so mean to me (I don't know if she looks at other Moms the same way).
But apparently my prepared speech wasn't what she needed to hear today.
God took care of my heart. Now I pray He'll take care of hers.

A kind word, or look, can go a long way as we encourage each other on this Christian journey!

Nobody is unbreakable. We're all fragile. Let's be gentle with each other.
