When animated veggies spoke truth to me, I asked you all to share what a significant message you had heard recently to enter to win your own copy of the new Veggie Tales DVD The Penniless Princess.
From Learning Patience in AZ:
My 2 year old daughter has taken to saying what I’ve said to her since she came home –and said it to her older brother this am, “I love you, Jacob, no matter what–no matter what, Jacob, ok?” Truly melted my heart…
JJ spoke truth to me in her comment:
Don’t conform the Cross to your way of life, conform your way of life to the Cross. . . . The cross doesn’t bend. We do. It shouldn’t be a “whatever works for you” mentality. It’s whatever the bible says. The whole bible, not just the parts that are most convenient for our life.
After hearing a sermon on missional living, Tracy shared some simple truth in her comment that I feel like should be wallpapered in my kitchen:
All it takes to live a missional life is these five things:
Pray
Love
Tell
Serve
Give
My kindred spirit Jenna shared something I feel like I’m going to learn well this coming year as things may be a-changing a bit around here:
we need to be more comfortable being uncomfortable
Carrie, a mama and woman I so admire (and wish I lived close to me–can you move here, Carrie?), shared something I so need to remember myself:
I was reminded to slow down and be thankful by my 19 mmonth old daughter when she insisted on holding hands before our meal to pray. Something I was passing over so I could get to the next thing.
I used old faithful random.org to choose a winner–and that winner is Terri Casebier, who just came home with Seth just 3 weeks ago.
I think I need to offer a giveaway every week just to hear some truth from you all. Can you keep speaking truth to me, friends?
YAY for Terri!!!!! And what is WITH that teaser, about things a-changing and getting comfortable with the uncomfortable?! Spill it girl. :)
