What would happen if we prayed for our children and released them into the things of God?

We are called to be the contrast between the gates of hell and heaven.

We are the difference we need.

As believers...there are times that all we can do is PRAY.

You're either ALIVE in Christ or DEAD. But if you are ALIVE, then you need to be able to SEE those around as God sees.

Sometimes we need to learn to drop all the facades and then to weep bitterly before the Lord. Crying out to Him.

Hannah did.

David did.

Jesus did.

God always finishes what He starts...sometimes though slower than we would like.

If we know that we can trust Him...and if we trust Him in all seasons - It can be well with our soul.

We can do FAMILY better.

We can do Church FAMILY better.

In fact...our kids need it and their kids and their kids. And Ruth is a great example

We all have seasons that feel like WINTER. But how do we move through them on our way to our SPRING seasons.

The Book of Ruth Chapter 1 has some great truths to learn from.

In Ruth Chapter 2, we see some amazing ways that Boaz loved Ruth and was good to her. He did all he could to keep her safe and have her feel like she belonged.

There are some great family lessons right here!!

Could it be that we are living in a day and age that needs a major FAMILY upheaval?

The Book of Ruth chapter 2 has some great insights for our homes and our churches.

We should always take the time to celebrate women...especially on occasions like Mother's Day.

Mums, Grandmums, Spiritual Mums, Mentors, Big Sisters etc...all the women that have invested their lives into being a blessing to those around us.
