Michael Pearl's nogreaterjoy.org a great resource for parents

I just wanted to share that my family has found Michael and Debi Pearl's ministry, No Greater Joy, and their website, www.nogreaterjoy.org, to be a wonderful parenting resource. They have at times been brought into unnecessary controversy over hideous crimes commited by other people. For a hint of truth, read this:

PEACE

While listening to the radio the other day, a topic came up that intruigued me and made me want to blog...

What's your definition of 'PEACE'? Many people would say "it's the opposite of war...or a lack of conflict". I want to challenge you to look at it through "spiritual eyes" and see how Jesus talked of it.

John 14:27 says: 27Peace I leave with you, My peace I give to you; not as the world gives do I give to you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.

I believe His definition of peace would be something more like this: a steadiness of mind and heart, a resolve of spirit amidst conflict, trial, and temptation.

Many a beauty queen, Sunday school room, pastor, etc has wished for world peace. Frankly, I don't see that happening while the Lord tarries, but we can have His peace that passes all understanding even now, today!, accompanied by the presence of the Holy Spirit, when we put our faith in Him.


Anyway, I found that interesting... :-)

Titus 2:1-5

1But as for you, speak the things which are proper for sound doctrine: 2that the older men be sober, reverent, temperate, sound in faith, in love, in patience; 3the older women likewise, that they be reverent in behavior, not slanderers, not given to much wine, teachers of good things—4that they admonish the young women to love their husbands, to love their children, 5to be discreet, chaste, homemakers, good, obedient to their own husbands, that the word of God may not be blasphemed.

Happy Birthday Big-E!
