Although I haven't shared very many photos to Instagram this year, it's still interesting to see what the #topnine2019 were. Not surprisingly they included #mountains, #waterfalls, #flowers, and #sunsets ---all portraying the creative beauty of my Father's world. The lyrics of the hymn written by Maltbie Davenport Babcock are good for reflection at the end of one year and the start of a new one--especially the words of hope and victory in the third verse. #thisismyfathersworld #Godreigns #letearthbeglad #happynewyear "This is My Father's World" 1 This is my Father's world, And to my listening ears All nature sings, and round me rings The music of the spheres. This is my Father's world: I rest me in the thought Of rocks and trees, of skies and seas-- His hand the wonders wrought. 2 This is my Father's world: The birds their carols raise, The morning light, the lily white, Declare their Maker's praise. This is my Father's world: He shines in all that's fair; In the rustling grass, I hear Him pass, He speaks to me everywhere. 3 This is my Father's world: O let me ne'er forget That though the wrong seems oft so strong, God is the Ruler yet. This is my Father's world: Why should my heart be sad? The Lord is King: let the heavens ring! God reigns; let earth be glad!

New Year's Eve is like standing at life's crossroads-- new beginnings and new roads to explore, choices to be made. But the best choice to make and the best place to be on New Year's Eve is at the foot of the cross where Christ himself teaches us to "Seek the Kingdom of God above all else, and live righteously, and he will give you everything you need" (Matthew 6:33 NLT). 🙏❤ #seekfirstgodskingdom #seekhimfirst #newyearseve #newyear #thecross

As final exams approach this time of year, students be like, "Hey! This shirt is my teacher!" But behind the scenes the following lines may be their teachers' perspective: 'Twas the night before exams and all through the school All the students were studying to learn every rule Of geometry, science, and grammar combined. They cried and they shouted, "I'm losing my mind!" "Too many names and dates to remember... Can't we bypass exams and enjoy our December? The teachers must surely be some type of Grinch Or 'Bah-Humbug' Scrooge sitting perched on their bench." But the teachers were furiously writing away. Were they oblivious after all of their students' dismay? No! As they wrote and they planned and prepared every test, They were praying for students to perform at their best. And so, our dear students, we want to proclaim, We pray for you daily--we call you by name Asking Jesus to be your true Teacher and Guide; May His lessons forever in your hearts abide. We know that you're stressed, and we pray for God's peace To help you prepare and sense a release. May His Presence be with you in all that you do-- We want you to know we are cheering for you!
