Tim - Phillipians 3:8

Who is the most successful person you know? What are the most valuable things in this world?
(some answers: Oprah, bill gates, daddy, king David , houses, money, gold, people. )

People like Tim Tebow who proclaim "my lord and savior Jesus Christ"...are great examples of giving glory to God with our lives.

I consider everything a loss compared to knowing Jesus. You can have everything but once you have Christ nothing is more valuable. Nothing.

We must give God glory with our lives.

He is the most valuable thing we have.

Devin - 1 Corinthians 2: 6-10

Gods secret wisdom.
No eye has seen , no ear has heard...

Have you ever felt like God revealed His wisdom you? Mom shared how she has times where she had no answers or words and yet it flowed from her....and then later she thought- where did that come from???

Daddy shared of a situation just yesterday where the truth was being revealed to him as it was coming from his mouth to someone else.

We desire His great wisdom and all he will give to us. We must yield to the Spirit so we can obtain His wisdom.

Livia - Proverbs 14:30

"A heart at peace gives life to the body but envy rots the bones. "


Anger happens to all of us.
Your response is best when you trust God and meditate on His word.
The book of proverbs is filled with wisdom regarding envy, starting quarrels and overlooking an offense.

I want peace!!! I pray that God will make me a person who is not easily angered. I don't want to quarrel or cause problems in my relationships.

Kadin said "we don't Want peace in our home we Need peace!"

Hum.... He's so right!
From the mouth of babes.

Tim - 2 Corinthians 7:10

Godly sorrow works repentance to salvation. Repentance means to turn away from sin. The relationship with God, is the most important one. By true change we honor His work in is. Repentance is a gift from God. Examine yourself and see if you have forgotten how to be sorry. We must understand our relationship with God and that forgiveness and change does not come by hard work but rather surrender to Christ.

Kadin - Matthew 2

Jesus was born!
Kadin said he picked this chapter because he saw Jesus's name and anything with his name is interesting to him.

"Great joy is a good thing so I wanted to know more about it" said Kadin.

It's a good time of the year to remember how Jesus came to us and what happened. The King was worried that he would be overtaken so he sent some people to check it out. They ended up worshipping Jesus.

Jesus must be worshipped!
Let's do that today !
Our savior. Our King!

Devin - John 3:16

For God so loved the world that He gave His only son, that whosover believes in Him will have eternal life!"

It's Kadins birthday and we took turns telling him everything we love about him After we had Tim hortons donuts for breakfast!!! It's going to be an awesome day!!!!

We are so thankful for His goodness and faithfulness to our family.  We pray today that our hearts would be pure before Him and that we would be open to His voice and belong completely to Him.'

Livia- Revelation 9

Gods judgement. Wow, We know what will happen according to scripture that in the end Jesus will call for us and take us to heaven. This scripture really makes you think about life and what is most important.

What will make us turn from our sin, our idolatry, our selfish desires? What? God is worthy of our attention but are we giving it to Him ?

What does a man gain if he gains the whole world and loses his soul?
