Thank you! She is quite the girl. She runs in circles, especially when she's excited. She only runs in one direction, so my nephews both love to get her to run in the other direction. smh

The USA is currently undergoing a period of cultural, political, economic, and
religious disintegration in the hands of some very unholy people. I don't like
it, but I have to live thru it as best I can; always keeping in mind that for
Jesus' followers; these kinds of disagreeable circumstances are conditioning
us to better associate with Christ.

It's easy to think of his sufferings as only those that occurred on the cross
and the night of his arrest. But it's important to remember that Christ lived
on this earth for about 30 years prior to his public appearances; and during
those years did not lead a sheltered life; in point of fact, during those 30
years he underwent a sort of boot camp.

Heb 5:7-9 . . During the days of Jesus' life on earth, he offered up prayers
and petitions with loud cries and tears to the one who could save him from
death, and he was heard because of his reverent submission. Although he
was a son, he learned obedience from what he suffered and, once made
perfect, he became the source of eternal salvation for all who obey him.

There aren't many of Jesus' impassioned prayers in the Gospels. The place
to look for those is the Psalms where David did quite of a bit of ghost writing
for him. (cf. Luke 24:44-45)

The Bible says there is no trial taken you but such as is common to the
entire human race (1Cor 10:13). Jesus wasn't shielded from any of those.
The Word not only came as a man, but he also lived as a man.

Heb 2:17-18 . . It was necessary for Jesus to be in every respect like us,
his brothers and sisters, so that he could be our merciful and faithful High
Priest before God. He then could offer a sacrifice that would take away the
sins of the people. Since he himself has gone through suffering and
temptation, he is qualified to help us when we are being tempted.

Heb 4:15-16 . .This High Priest of ours understands our weaknesses, for
he faced all of the same temptations we do, yet he did not sin. So let us
come boldly to the throne of our gracious God. There we will obtain mercy,
and find grace to help us when we need it.

So then, when we meet with Christ around the table in God's home, I don't
expect to meet a stranger to my way of life; no, I fully expect to meet a man
who's been around the block a time or two. Not only will he be able to relate
to my stories, but I in return will be able to relate to his. Sharing in Christ's
glory would have the nature of an entourage if not for the fact that I will
have the satisfaction of knowing that Christ, in a manner of speaking, came
from the same neighborhood as I to get to where he is today.
