John MacArthur can vote for whoever he wants

And you can vote for whoever you want

And your salvation is not political

And I really miss when we all agreed that a fundamental principle of this country was the separation of church and state
My humble, PERSONAL views are #NeverTrump but I know logically that I have to fight for the protection of those who want to vote for Trump

because freedom for me

Is actually connected to freedom for you
Lastly, I’d be very VERY weary of anyone who uses God as a weapon for political gain

God is not a weapon

God liberates, loves, and frees

My greatest testimony of God’s faithfulness isn’t an answered prayer

It’s not an outward miracle or the changing of my circumstances

It’s the work God does within me

It’s the delicate, and gentle way God continues to transform my own character

Even without the answers
God’s faithfulness, has been in the continued work of restoring me back to God & to myself

That’s the miracle

It defies my human nature

It defies answers

It’s the miracle of a relationship w/ God

& it has not been me, but God, who has been most faithful to that relationship
I just want to encourage you to hang on.

& I want to comfort you by admitting I’ve let go. I’ve been angry, and bitter and after I’m out of bargains the spirit of God STILL dwells near me

Still calls me back to God and to myself.

My own heart is God’s greatest work in my life

This morning I asked my daughter if she tells her brother she loves him

“He knows I love him..” she said

“You tell him when you are mad at him? You tell him when you want him out of your room. You should tell him you love him too” I told her

Don’t assume what ppl know

Say it
She turns to her brother (who is 7, she is 8) and says “I love you.”

He smiles and says “I love you too”

20 minutes later they were fighting again,

But at least this time he knew

She loves him too
By the way this is my crew. ❤️ being their mom is the best thing that has ever happened to me. Image

I have a student who’s a raging feminist

Says she’ll NEVER get married

She goes to a think tank in DC & meets a guy from Yale. Falls in love

He has a heart attack. Almost dies. & in the exhilaration of him being alive SHE gets down on one knee

& PROPOSES

BTW he said yes.
Who raised GenZ? Gen X? Is that who we thank??

She looks at the entire class and says “YOU ARE NO MAN’S PROPERTY!”

& then says her husband is her greatest life PARTNER

Also, I’ve never felt better about my future than knowing this girl is in DC think tanks w/ her Yale husband
They are currently living happily ever after. Gen Z is not playing with us y’all.

The reward for David slaying Goliath

Is wrestling w/ Saul

The reward for Daniel’s diet in Babylon

Is to later face a lions den

Every battle eventually leads to a bigger one

So more important than storing joy

Is living with the source of it
The reality is that every answered prayer just leads you to praying another one

So what if instead of getting joy because God answers any singular request

We found joy in the unbelievable honor

Of being able to ask at all
The greatest gift of a marriage is not money or houses or cars

It’s the marriage

It’s the relationship

That good or bad, someone is in the lions den with you

And when you feast, you can set the table for two

Unfortunately one of the weapons Christians have used for manipulation is “I’ll pray for you”

Some ppl will use it to create a spiritual chasm where one is superior & the other is inferior & in need of divine intervention

Don’t use manipulatively

It’s spiritual abuse
I have also had ppl be incredibly inappropriate & rude

And then they say “let’s pray” at the end

It’s toxic. & learn to be okay learning to say “no thank you” when someone tries to do this to you
Oops. That should have said don’t use prayer manipulatively ***

YEARS ago I was w/ guys from Notre Dame & one’s an Olympic athlete who won’t stop telling us he’s an athlete

It’s so bad my friend demands he stop the car

She screams at him & it’s all very intense

Today I randomly type his name in & this bio pops up:

“World Class Athlete”
When she made him stop the car he goes “no one has ever challenged me before”

& then looks at her like he has finally found a host strong enough to carry his athlete babies

& she goes, “No I literally hate you”
Anyway she gets back in the car, he drives us through a Taco Bell, (because apparently that’s what Olympian’s fuel on), & keeps telling us glory stories & slamming 12 quesaritos, while my friend bangs her head against the glass of the window
