Share Your World April 16, 2018

It is time to Share My World again. It just seems like the weeks are flying by this year even faster than usual. I am half convinced time is collapsing!

Anyway, my answers to the weekly questions are below. Please check out Cee’s blog by clicking the link above . Do it now before time collapses any further!

List things or events that changed your life?

Wow! That is a huge list. It feels like my life has been one change after another as I look back to get me where I am. To pick out one life- changing event is like playing a game of Jenga. Each change has its place in making me who I am remove just one and the whole tower comes down.

But here are four life events that seem to have dramatically changed the direction of my life.

  1. Becoming a Christian
  2. Getting married
  3. Having Children
  4. Getting divorced

Complete this sentence: Is it a bird? Is it a plane? No it’s…Superman of course!

This quote has kept me all week.

For by grace you have been saved through faith. And this is not your own doing; it is the gift of God, not a result of works, so that no one may boast. 10 For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand, that we should walk in them.

 

My Little White Dog Makes Me Think

My Little White Dog Makes Me Think

by JE Lillie

I remembered

My little white dog bursting out of his night-crate.

He leant his nine-pound panting frame, more fur than skin and bones,

Against my bent legs as I fixed

Him in his blue harness, white sweater and red leash.

He loved me just because he was dog and I was man.

It makes me think how

My little white church bursts with songs on a Sunday morning.

Ladies in their summer white cotton dresses, “Hallelujah!” and “Amen!”.

Meanwhile the steeple leans its fragile cross

against an opaque sky as the culture clamps down with a burning American flag.

They hate me because I am Christian and they are not.

I will realize

My wedding garment glistening with a holy halo.

I shall burst forth behind a white horse leaning upon a broken Zion.

I will be bound with unbreakable chords:

Faith, Hope and Love!  I will look into the fiery eyes of the One who loved me first.

I will love Him because I am man and He is God.
