Pure Words



"The Words of the Lord are PURE words, Like silver, tried in a furnace of earth, Purified seven times. You shall keep them, O Lord, You shall preserve them from this generation forever."


-Psalm 12:6-7 


Outside the pottery studio 
I read this verse last week and made a list of words that could be used to describe the words of the Lord. Some that came to my mind were these: untarnished, spotless, undefiled, unfailing, perfect, magnificent, shimmering, sparkling, reflective, righteous,  up-lifting, instructive, whole, unhindered, piercing to the quick, wholesome, delightful, convicting, beautiful, awe-inspiring, encouraging, correct, right, unwavering, steadfast, indefatigable, inexhaustible, and true.











My sister and I are taking a pottery class right now. I took a few pictures at our last lesson. It is so much fun to make something from scratch, from the raw clay into a beautiful pot, bowl or vase.






"Finally, brethren, whatever things are true, whatever things are noble, whatever things are just, whatever things are pure, whatever things are lovely, whatever things are of good report, if there is any virtue and if there is anything praiseworthy—
meditate on these        things." 


-Philippians 4:8

Walking with Christ

From that time many of His disciples went back and walked with Him no more. Then Jesus said to the twelve, “Do you also want to go away?” John 6: 66-67 What does it mean to walk with Christ? I asked this question today. To walk means to move, to go from one physical place to another. Unless you are walking on a treadmill and then you literally go nowhere! To walk with someone else you have to keep up with their pace, whether they walk slower or faster than you. To walk with Christ we need to watch Him and match our stride with His. Not lagging behind, yet also not walking too far ahead of Him either. I know I tend to run ahead to the future in my thoughts and not always listen to what the Lord tells me in the His Word, the Bible. Who are some people who walked with God? Abraham is one who comes to mind. When Abram was ninety-nine years old, the Lord appeared to Abram and said to him, “I am Almighty God; walk before Me and be blameless.” Genesis 17:1 Abraham walked so closely with God ...
