This week, a lesson in Civics.

And living. And following a call. And letting others follow theirs.


Who are you to judge someone else's servant?
To his own master he stands or falls.
And he will stand, for the Lord is able to make him stand.


Romans 14:4

And a mighty civics lesson it has been... even for me.

And wow! What an introduction to America! She exceeded my expectations to be sure.

And I'm with you on this one-before her own master she stands or falls. Who are we to judgeabout that which we have no REAL knowledge?

ps. for those zooming in to see what Fifi is holding on her lap--it's the knitting book with the pattern for what she's trying to make.

Exactly what I shared with some young moms a few weeks ago.
Will meditate on that verse!

Thanks for that verse. I needed that! It wards off self-righteousness. :-D

Dear Robin--

I have fully enjoyed becoming acquainted with your blog. The classical music in the background is moving and the photography shows your love for that art.

Thank you for inviting me.
Warmly,
Corrine

Yes, I've been very frustrated with the people who are trying to put God in a box and tell Him what He can and cannot do....
loved this post!
