Day 25: Hillbilly in a China Shop

Scripture: Psalm 34:8

 No Disrespect
Sometimes I feel like a
hillbilly at a tea party.
Like an elephant
in a china shop.

 (Yes, I know it's "a bull.")

 But no matter
whether I can 
"celebrate god with each 
of [my] senses" or I 
just say, "Hey, Papa
God, what's up? I I love
you!" no matter how 
I say it, he loves me back.

 Celebration & Sarcasm,
Rachel

Year 2, Day 5: For Better or For Worse

Scripture :  Ecclesiastes 3:1-20 Every Moment I've hit that point, God, Where I remember that I need you. It's not that I forgot,  I just start to go numb with the knowing you'll always be there. It's not that I want to be tested, It's definitely not that I want bad things to happen, But I know you are there when they do. I take you for granted on the good days But I need to remember you on more than the bad. Thanks for sticking with me through the ups and downs the good and the bad For better or for worse, We're in this together. Love & Appreciation, Rachel

Preach it!

This morning I preached at York Center Church of the Brethren. Here's what I said! Scripture: Matthew 14:22-31 22-23  As soon as the meal was finished, he insisted that the disciples get in the boat and go on ahead to the other side while he dismissed the people. With the crowd dispersed, he climbed the mountain so he could be by himself and pray. He stayed there alone, late into the night. 24-26  Meanwhile, the boat was far out to sea when the wind came up against them and they were battered by the waves. At about four o’clock in the morning, Jesus came toward them walking on the water. They were scared out of their wits. “A ghost!” they said, crying out in terror. 27  But Jesus was quick to comfort them. “Courage, it’s me. Don’t be afraid.” 28  Peter, suddenly bold, said, “Master, if it’s really you, call me to come to you on the water.” 29-30  He said, “Come ahead.” Jumping out of the boat, Peter walked on the water to Jesus. But when he looke...

Year 2, Day 2: "I'm a damsel, I'm in distress, I can handle it. Have a nice day."

Scripture : Ephesians 6:10-18 Armor of Champions I sense a quest coming on. Find the cloak of invisibility. The wing of a broken winged bat. The necklace of eternity. On the surface, this verse sounds Like something straight out of A fantasy novel. But the difference is That God can actually clothes you in truth Shields you from harm And keeps you safe. He is your armor. His love is what keeps you safe. He empowers you to save yourself. Not from the evil dragons of the world, But from those things that would hurt you. Even from yourself at times. Trust in your armor to keep you safe,  Trust in God's warm embrace, And you'll save the damsel in distress, You'll make it to the castle in one piece. Peace & Hope, Rachel
