Let's Not Talk About It
My husband is earlier than an early bird. We are talking 3AM is a normal wake up time for him and some days earlier than that. My internal clock leans more towards a 6AM eye opener. Sometimes, I can catch him for a snuggle right about that time before he leaves for work. This one particular morning I looked at him and said, "Someday, one of us is going to wake up without the other." My man always has something worth listening too. Yes, for those of you who know him, it is often a joke, but his response this time to me was "Let's not talk about it."
What is something you do not want to talk about?
I sat around the kitchen table with my small group from church, everyone there was a grandmother. The topic, which most people do not want to talk about, shifted to those of us with children who are not bringing up our grandchildren to love and serve the Lord. Many are not in church, not prayed over by their parents daily and not having scripture poured into their lives. One friend, began to weep, as we all should at the reality that if we are right in our faith, which costs us nothing to believe, we will not spend eternity with these we love deeply.
Easter is days away. One of these grandmothers shared that she never called it Easter with her children, but Resurrection Sunday. She wanted them to grasp, from a young age what was being celebrated.
God gave Jesus to die for our sins, and he raised him to life, so that we would be made acceptable to God. Romans 4:25
Without the death, burial and resurrection of Christ our faith is worthless.
And if Christ has not been raised, then our preaching is in vain and your faith is in vain. 1 Corinthians 15:14
With whom are you are avoiding the discussion of this topic? They should be offended if you do not share your faith with them?
