Thank you so very much for taking the time to share that with me. I really needed that message tonight. I was feeling like God did let me down because it didn’t go the way we’d hoped.

I don’t know why these things are happening in my life but I’m sure that my Lord will take care of me and my family. My heart is aching and I’m scared but I do trust Him. Thank you for reminding me of that.

My friend, I Stumbled Upon your website. I decided to post a reply. You should know that faith does not require the absence of concern…it does not require a lack of emotion. Faith says that in the face of emotion, I still trust the LORD. Even when things don’t go your way, you still trust the LORD. Even when there’s pain, you still trust the LORD. Don’t worry about the emotions and the “fear.” In the face of your fear, continue trusting the LORD.

My testimony…I was foreclosed on my home. I thought that the LORD should have come through and stopped the process. HE didn’t. So, my family and I packed up and moved right on back to our old house. I say, thank GOD I had a home to go back to. Maybe there’s a reason HE allowed it, and HE knows the story much better than you or I…so just trust HIM in the face of your fear.

I am the proud father of a 3-week-old baby girl; I hope I can be half as good a father to her as yours clearly was to you.

Comment on A Humble Child by Tina Kubala

Some of the same ideas apply to kids born of marriages that end in divorce. Knowing that your parents shouldn’t ever have married is some times hard to justify with a conservative Christian upbring. Understanding that God knows us well enough to plan to make beauty out of our mistakes and sins is humbling, isn’t it?

Yes, Wanda, it is sad. I’m sure most don’t realize the meaning of the “rod” in the passage, though. Please pass the message along when you can. Education is key.

It’s so sad that this verse is misused by so many to justify corporal punishment. It always backfires–I used to work in a church nursery & the worst behaved kids were the ones who were regularly punished physically–it got to where I could pick them out ahead of time.
