| Our Beautiful Daughter |
Today seems to be the day of doubt and the feeling of defeat
for so many and for different reasons. For our family it is financial crunch
time as the hubby works for the RV Company, called Keystone, which is shut down
for 2 weeks for the 4th of July. For others it may be personal
reasons I cannot share.
Friday June 26, 2015 many were celebrating the fact that
same sex marriage is now legal in all 50 states, however, for the Bible and
Jesus believing Christians it is a huge set back for our nation.
It grieves me to think how many people think that being gay
and or homosexual is quite normal, even people who claim to be a Christian or
attend church. How does it make God our Father, the creator of the world and
author of the Bible feel?
Many places in the Bible it is quite clear that living a
homosexual life is a sin. It is not a bigger sin than any other sin, however,
still a sin. How can Christians turn their eyes against God and his word? How
can they say drinking and or drug use is wrong and a sin and yet agree to the
homosexual lifestyle simply because they know the person. Yes love that person
and it is the greatest commandment, however not the sin.
“Praise You in this Storm” by Casting Crowns came to my mind
Friday morning and “Turn Your Eyes Upon Jesus” to my sister while she was at
work.
Our family, a big family with 10 siblings, was raised going
to church and believing in God the Father, the Holy Spirit and Jesus Christ the
son. It has gotten us through many a hard time and I often wonder how others do
it without a faith-based life.
Newsboys Turn Your Eyes Upon Jesus
Now, while the song she first remembered was the old hymn we
once sang in church, Turn your eyes upon Jesus, the Newsboys a few years back,
took that song and gave it an up beat and even a better song. Many will be
familiar with the old hymn; however, in case you do not know the words, here are
the lyrics to follow along with the You Tube video.
Our family has undergone test and trials, however, we know
where to place our trust, turn our eyes and give praise, do you?
