Junk Food

As much as we appreciate the support from you dear friends that read this blog everyday...as much as we like seeing your lives change because of some piece of advice we have given, we have to admit that we are so extremely humbled that you visit here.  We are nothing more that a married couple that have made some mistakes and have lived through it and are endeavoring with every ounce of our being to allow God to get glory from it.

In order for us to allow God to receive all the glory from us and our testimony we have to make sure that we are constantly sending you back to Him and His Word. If we don't then we are assuming that WE actually have something of value to offer you.  Let's just make it clear right now...apart from God, His written word, and His specific revealed word to each of us we have nothing.  It is God alone that is able to be our everything and constant.

In the course of your day as you find time to read this blog, do you read it with the hope that we will say something to inspire or encourage you to stand one more day?  If what we say or do that is your hope, then we have missed our purpose of this blog.  We write this with our hope being that we can point you back to the Father.  Your hope, your encouragement, your everything should be found...NEEDS to be found...in the person of Jesus, not us.

Is our blog your daily bread?  Or is His Word your daily bread?  If His Word is then you are feeding yourself on complete and perfect sustenance for your stand.  His Word will give you everything you need to maintain your stand.  But, if you are reading only our blog for the hope and encouragement you need to keep up your stance you are feasting on junk food.  What we write may give you a boost in your spirit but it will be short-lived and temporary at best.  His Word will fill you so that you staying power for the road ahead.  Our blog will only give you a short burst of hope but will leave you wanting and hungry for something else.

Although we love knowing that you read this faithfully, we would be more honored knowing that you invest time reading His Word FIRST.  Don't look to us to be your hope because, eventually, we will let you down.  But, He will NEVER let you down.  His Word is life.  Our blog is only junk food.
