God has so been challenging to be a living example of His Word in practical ways (i.e that bag of groceries you were talking about). I cannot wait to see who He puts in my path!Sarah W.https://www.blogger.com/profile/07498360398626998594noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30016058.post-46112095266479581132009-01-24T10:33:00.000-06:002009-01-24T10:33:00.000-06:00Amen, Amen and AMEN!!!Amen, Amen and AMEN!!!Dreamahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15962044779098962382noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30016058.post-85504038348734400032009-01-24T07:08:00.000-06:002009-01-24T07:08:00.000-06:00These last two posts made my "Best of the Blogs" l...These last two posts made my "Best of the Blogs" list.

We've got to stop telling them and start showing them. Great post!

The refrain is "Wherever we go, that's where the party's at." Despite the deplorable sentence structure, they are absolutely correct. We have the joy of God, the peace that passes understanding, the promise of salvation, the deposit of the Spirit, and the hope of heaven. <BR/><BR/>I want to show my hope each and every day.Roxannehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03483570734127165995noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30016058.post-6814441658563618912009-01-23T11:07:00.000-06:002009-01-23T11:07:00.000-06:00What a beautiful post, Melanie!

Only Christ's strength can carry the hope of all people.Susannehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02757963698816530787noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30016058.post-11207569712561974792009-01-23T10:34:00.000-06:002009-01-23T10:34:00.000-06:00Hi there...I have been reading your blog for a lon...Hi there...I have been reading your blog for a long time, but don't comment very often! <BR/><BR/>I wrote a similar sort of post today, and my word for the year is hope. This is weighing really heavily on my heart at the moment, and unity too. Without hope, and without unity, I think the coming years would be a nightmare to face, but with them, and with tangible action, things could be so different. We need to be examples, don't we. Great post.Lindshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17141761866483224572noreply@blogger.com
