The Calling Of Motherhood

 

The Calling Of Motherhood

     Not an easy job, cause its more than a job.  When the timeclock ends, they are there way past the bell.  God will reward.  He will give favor.  For those that nurture in hope, His eye is upon.  Do not think your efforts go unnoticed.  He sees your dedication.  He knows your plight.

     Child rearing is just that.  As pigs in the pasture, they must be corralled by force at times.  Stubborn noses dig and thrust uprooting all that is made in order.  So are children in their vile natures.  Shepherd of the sheep?  No, farmer in the mud.

     They take.  They laugh.  They break.  They call for another.  Mothers in mercy take punches, not throwing it back at them.  They come to challenge your resolute.  The trials they produce show and refine your character.  Failing, crossing your conscience, you plead for forgiveness when your stern stance gives way to temptation.  Mothers, in sensitivity, cry within to see their boot upside their blunt thrusts.  That is the way Godly mothers are.  So constrained by affectionate love, small corrections weigh heavily on their souls.

     Do I have to say more?  Is there hope?  We stand together to encourage one another.  The hill be hard.  Resistance lessens as the wheels spin freer.  Our calling is to help oil and push.  Rust grabs the spindle.  Working it round until the grind expulses the infirmity.  Foolishness is surely bound up in the heart of a child.  We enforce Mom’s commands reassuring little ones Another is watching.

     Fear is not by nature.  Holy respect is learned.  We will help today?  A sharp stick will bruise.  We work to aid Mom’s hand.  Only she understands the heart of her children.

Sojourning

  Sojourning Sojourn: a temporary stay Hebrews 11: 8  “ By faith Abraham, when he was called to go out into a place which he should after receive for an inheritance, obeyed; and he went out, not knowing whither he went. 9  By faith he sojourned in the land of promise, as in a strange country , dwelling in tabernacles with Isaac and Jacob, the heirs with him of the same promise: 10  For he looked for a city which hath foundations, whose builder and maker is God. ”      This indeed is a strange place.   I call my house T.L.A. or Temporary Living Accommodations.   In the Air Force, TLA housed those who were just passing through.   Like airman using the base as a skipping stone to get to their next assignment.   Hotels of sorts, they offered the comforts of home on a smaller scale.      We are a people set in Babylon.   Even in Sodom as we shut the doors as night.   This world so interferes wit...

The Church Picture

  The Church Picture 2 Samiuel 6: 20  “ Then David returned to bless his household. And Michal the daughter of Saul came out to meet David, and said, How glorious was the king of Israel to day, who uncovered himself to day in the eyes of the handmaids of his servants, as one of the vain fellows shamelessly uncovereth himself! 21  And David said unto Michal, It was before the  Lord , which chose me before thy father, and before all his house, to appoint me ruler over the people of the  Lord , over Israel: therefore will I play before the  Lord . 22  And I will yet be more vile than thus, and will be base in mine own sight: and of the maidservants which thou hast spoken of, of them shall I be had in honour. ” Revelation 4: 10  “ The four and twenty elders fall down before him that sat on the throne, and worship him that liveth for ever and ever, and cast their crowns before the throne, saying, 11  Thou art worthy, O Lord, to receive ...

God's Successive Revelations

  God’s Successive Revelations Search Me diligently, and I will reveal Myself to you.      Yah, that sound like something God would say.   I understand He revealed the Trinity to us.   I plead ignorance in Church history.   Some theologians, perhaps 400 A.D. came upon this gem that we hold true today.   The idea of the rapture is new on the Church radar.   Late 1800’s?      What if God revealed His truth to His people in time?   Surely, Solomon was the wisest man in his day, but did he know about Pentecost?   Daniel, the far seer, was only shown glimpses.   What did he know of Peter and miracles in the temple?   A certain king discovered God’s truth again and that made for a reformation, but what did he know of the beast standing in the sea?   God gives insight in His time.      I have trained seven children.   As young  children, I did not flood them with...
