The Do-Gooders
For by grace you have been saved through faith . . . it is the gift of God, not of works, lest anyone should boast.
Ephesians 2:8-9

Galatians 1:1-9


How hard do you work at trying to be "good"? Technology can help you! Families can now view movies in their homes through the use of a television filter, muting unacceptable language, behavior, and violence. There's also Internet filter software to block pornography and foul content. And if you're trying to make good nutritional choices, you can buy a handheld electronic calorie counter. So technology can help you be good. But is it good enough?
God asks us to live in obedience to His Word, and our behavior should imitate Christ. But what a liberating thought that we don't need to be "good enough" for God's love! In the Book of Galatians, the apostle Paul's anger toward the Judaizers was justified. They were trying to change the Gospel of grace by adding required works (Galatians 1:9). Paul's message was clear: It's either the Gospel of grace or it's not the Gospel at all.
Do you worry about being good enough for God? Filling your hands with good works is not the answer. Show Him empty hands, and ask Him to fill them with His grace.
I have a great need for Christ; I have a great Christ for my need.

Park's Easter Egg Hunt

My friend Lisa just got me this disc because my camera went dead at the hunt. We had it inside the church because it was rainy.

Park's New Joke

My little man is so funny!!! He says,"Hey Mom, I have a joke to tell you." Me, "Ok, tell me baby." Park, " A platapus would have put it over the top!!!" I love it!!!
Our giggle boxes were turned upside down and we did belly laughs...Nothing better!

Boxers are best!!!

I don't know why but it just cracked me up to see my lil boy in boxers...I mean he is a doll!!! Of course I know he is a doll in everything, but it was like he was all grown up...I love you Park! Thursday is his last day of 3year old preschool. I am so glad we have next year. I may have to go to school with him. Ha!
