May our lives together bring glory to you, our Saviour, and testify of your love.

What makes a good Christian marriage? Two good Christians. And, what that means is, that you both love the Lord Jesus Christ with all your heart, and He is the priority in your life, and that you, faithfully, together, pursue a path of obedience to Jesus Christ.

Philippians 4:6–7 (NIV)

6 Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. 7 And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.

I am claiming this! Come into our situation and help meeeeeeeee!!!!!

I am back!! Photos of the road trip later. But, for now some thoughts - this is the time when people move out, move away, walk along new paths in life and settle down for a more sedate and "normal" life. In other words, we're all growing up - finally. :P

We're are all "living a heartbeat from eternity".... it's so true, something I picked up from a dear friend's blog... all the more reason to live with a purpose while we still are here.

Seek ye first the kingdom of God AND his righteousness (Matt 6:33)... hmm what is the kingdom of God and what does it mean for me?

Wikipedia gives a pretty decent account of what it means.

Today's QT reading is rather apt:

Matthew 6:25-34 (New International Version)

Do Not Worry

²⁵"Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or drink; or about your body, what you will wear. Is not life more important than food, and the body more important than clothes? ²⁶Look at the birds of the air; they do not sow or reap or store away in barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not much more valuable than they? ²⁷Who of you by worrying can add a single hour to his life?

²⁸"And why do you worry about clothes? See how the lilies of the field grow. They do not labor or spin. ²⁹Yet I tell you that not even Solomon in all his splendor was dressed like one of these. ³⁰If that is how God clothes the grass of the field, which is here today and tomorrow is thrown into the fire, will he not much more clothe you, O you of little faith? ³¹So do not worry, saying, 'What shall we eat?' or 'What shall we drink?' or 'What shall we wear?' ³²For the pagans run after all these things, and your heavenly Father knows that you need them. ³³But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well. ³⁴Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own.

Just a reminder for me - it's a year of change :) bring it on!
