Last night, we gathered in the living room to bring some "LIFE" to our children. We sat around talking about the summer and preparing for this NEW school year. We asked each of them to share about their hopes for this NEW school year and then Rob shared his hope for them this NEW year. Rob shared this truth: " You were taught, with regard to your former way of life, to put off your old self, which is being corrupted by its deceitful desires; to be made NEW in the attitude of your minds; and to PUT ON THE NEW SELF, created to be LIKE GOD in TRUE RIGHTEOUSNESS and HOLINESS." Ephesians 4:22-25 As our children, "put on" their new school clothes or as we "put on" our new work clothes, may we all be mindful of putting on our NEW SELF..........."created to be LIKE GOD." May the "ATTITUDE OF OUR MINDS," be FULL of righteousness and holiness. Blessings from Bombadil...........home of an 8th grader, 6th grader, 4th grader, 1st grader, and preschooler who are FULL OF EXCITEMENT at the NEWNESS of a school year. Kristy LInk "I will continue with all of you for your progress and joy in the faith, so that through my being with you again your joy in Christ Jesus will overflow on account of me."
