God is good

When I cannot stand I'll fall on you

Children who commit crimes

I have watched some documentaries today about children who commit serious crimes and are sentenced to life in prison. They said that the US is the only country in the world that will allow children to be sentenced to life. Bad choices as a child can haunt you as an adult.

Waiting here for you

unity in the body

I want my people to be free to be who I have called them to be
Not constrained by what other people think
If people get upset because flags are waved, coffee is bad, people are too loud or too quiet, people do things differently than they would, that is not unity and  is missing the point.
Unity is loving and accepting others
Not judging
Not thinking that you understand God's ways
Because you don't  
Not on your own
That is why we need people who are different from ourselves
To see God in new ways
No one person can have a complete view of God
We need and are reliant on others to build a more complete picture of God
When He says that He loves you, there are no strings attached
So should it be when we love others.
We've been a broken body but we're coming together again
Coming together in love, forgiveness and unity
