Only one week to go to determine the course of this great nation. Oh, dear families, I trust you are praying. I trust you are meeting daily as a family to pray for this nation and for these coming elections.We are living in an unprecedented time in our history where we who believe God, in His Word, in His ultimate truth, and in righteousness are facing an enemy that is so huge. We have never faced such evil as we face now in this nation.
The current president (although illegitimate) and all his party, stand on the side of abortion (even if the baby is born alive), for same sex marriage (which is an abomination in the eyes of God), and now the advocating of transgender and the mutilation of young children’s bodies to the opposite sex. Joe Biden wants to make it a federal law that not even states cannot go against the choice of a young child to change gender!
Does this not want to bring you to your knees? This coming week, could you gather your family to pray together morning and evening for God to move mightily and to spread forth His holy arm to rain down righteousness upon us? Get all your children praying. God hears the prayers of children.
If we are not praying in our homes, we won’t be praying in our churches? And if we are not praying, how can we expect God’s blessing.
God has promised to answer those who humble themselves, pray, seek His face, and turn from their wicked ways (2 Chronicles 7:14). When we do this, He promises He will heal our land. But is this happening? How many Christian families are praying together daily? Do we rally want our land to be healed?
And we must not only pray but vote. To not cast a vote is to align ourselves with all this evil which can only bring the judgment of God. We must stand on God’s side. We must vote for righteousness. We must vote against all this evil, deception, tyranny, and ultimately the New World Order which is a complete takeover of our families and our lives.
We have a dear friend from Venezuela who has come into our lives. He had to escape. Even though he has escaped he is still under the surveillance of this communist government. He grieves daily as he sees that everything that was happening in Venezuela to lead to the communist takeover is happening in our nation right now. He pleads with people to vote.
If we do nothing, it means we are happy to come under servitude. If we care for our families and future generations, we will forget everything else on our agenda this coming week and will pray and make sure we vote.
Let’s join together as God’s people to stand for truth and righteousness,
Nancy Campbell

My last post to you was from Way’s translation of Titus 2:3-5. Here is something else I noticed. I was struck by how Way's translation exhorts wives "to be amiable and submissive to their own husbands."
Jean Marie writes:
I love the Arthur S. Way's translation of Titus 2:3-5 where it tells the older women their responsibilities: "They should be teachers of virtue, qualified to school in self-control the young women, to teach them to love their husbands and their children, to be discreet and chaste, to recognize that their sphere is home, to be amiable and submissive to their own husbands, so that no slander may assail the Word of God."
When God first got a hold of my heart completely at 17 years old, He changed me from the inside out. My attitudes changed as this new life of Christ began to unfold in my life. I saw all things He created as if it were the first time. I couldn’t get enough of His presence. At 17 years, I spent all free time and weekends soaking in the presence of God, saturating myself in His Word, and praying for hours upon hours. I couldn't wait to be with Him in the secret place every day.
It’s so easy to get burdened down with negative thoughts, isn’t it? If we don’t discipline our thoughts they tend toward self-pity, “poor me” attitude, selfishness, and even thoughts of God that are not worthy of Him.
Dear ladies, as you are aware, I love to send out a picture to you with every post I write. A picture is worth a thousand words! But it is not always easy to find the right picture and as I look for pictures there is often a problem with copyright.
In order to counteract distractions this we must get into the habit of becoming disciplined and focused. How can we FOCUS? I'll share an acrostic with you, and as I do, I'll point three fingers back at me!
Three of our grandsons singing "On Christ the solid rock I stand, All other ground is sinking sand." They loved to sing with all their hearts.
Wow, wouldn’t your children think it was was cool if you could give gold to them every day? Dear mother, you have the power to do this. You have gold in your hands. As you and your husband read God‘s word to your children each day, you are giving them gold. Gold that is eternal. Gold that will lead lead them on a path of success. Psalm 19:10 says that God’s words and more precious than much fine gold. They are sweeter than honey dripping from the honeycomb. The most important thing you can do each day is to dispense the goal of God’s word to your children. Don’t let other things interfere. Make it a priority.
It grieves me when I hear people say they are angry with God. Really? Who do we think we are to be mad at Him? He is the God of the universe, the Creator of the world, the Creator of our bodies, the God who judges righteously and perfectly, the God who loves us with an everlasting love, the God who works everything out for our good even when we can't see it, and the God who sent His only Beloved Son to die and save us from our sins.
Are you a grumbling mother or a praising mother?
Yesterday I shared with; you seven adjectives of how God wants us to fill the earth. But there’s more. Not only does God give us these adjectives but He also paints pictures for us on this subject. He wants us to feel His heart about this subject. God promised the patriarchs of old that their descendants would be like . . .
As I read the Scriptures, I invariably find that my thinking is quite opposite to God’s thinking. What should I do? I’ve got to change my opinion to God’s way of thinking. I think that many who call themselves Christians don’t really believe in the God of the Bible after all. It is so easy to believe in a God of our own imagination. Unless we constantly fill our minds with God’s Word, we can be deceived. The other day I was checking out God’s attitude toward fruitfulness. I notice the Bible is far removed from how even Christians think today. The average number of children per family in America is only 1.9 children per family but God’s vision is much bigger.
Some people allow themselves to get eaten up inside with bitterness, hurt, and jealousy etc. As mothers, we cannot allow these attitudes in our lives for they destroy us and our entire family. We must keep our spirits whole--pure, blameless, and continually forgiving.
Do you remember the account of Jesus when he was only twelve years old? The family came to the Feast of Passover at Jerusalem. On the way home, along with all the other hundreds of families returning from Jerusalem, his parents noticed Jesus' was missing. They immediately returned to Jerusalem, but it was three days before they found Him.
Ephesians 6:8 tells us: “Whatsoever GOOD thing any man doeth, the same shall he receive the Lord.”
Dear ladies, the other day I was searching for a certain article on my computer and while doing so, the following birth story popped up! I read it again and laughed and laughed. I had printed this in Above rubies back in 2004 and here it was, still on my computer. Although it was written so long ago, I thought I’d share it with you again today. I know you will enjoy a laugh, and also enjoy reading again of the wonder of birth. I have contacted Suzy and she is so happy for me to share it with you again. And after all these years, they are still growing their organic grains, but sorry, it is too far away to order them in New Zealand!
