I am always fascinated by the way God takes someth I am always fascinated by the way God takes something ordinary, combines it with a little faith and obedience from His followers, and then uses it to display His glory and show forth His power. Once there was a widow who obeyed the instructions of God through His prophet Elisha. The widow's commonplace jars of oil miraculously continued to refill repeatedly so she could sell the oil to pay off her debts and provide for the needs of her sons. (2 Kings 4:1-7) Or how about over 5,000 hungry people who were fed one day by Jesus - not with a prepared banquet but with only two humble fish and five common loaves of bread donated by a young boy? (Matthew 14:13-21) In Judges 15, we encounter Samson, who one day wielded a simple object - the jawbone of a donkey - that God provided as a rather unconventional weapon. That improvised instrument, powered by the Spirit of the Lord, enabled Samson to strike down 1,000 Philistines. Read the remainder of my teaching from Judges 15 over on the @proverbs31ministries @first5app ! 💙

🎉HAPPY HALF-BIRTHDAY TO MR. JASPER RIDGE EHMAN🎉 The joy of our family turns 6️⃣ months old today.🎂 Since his family moved in June to Tennessee, we’ve swapped out holding him on Sundays during church to seeing him over FaceTime on Friday afternoons. He is slowly losing his baby face and looks more like a little man every day. 👶🏻We can see both his Michigan Mitten-raised dad ✋🏼and his sweet Southern Georgia peach of a mom 🍑 in his face. My college boyfriend turned husband, affectionally now known as “Pops” and I (Grandma Kit) can hardly wait to see him in person just one week from now!! 🎉(You Tennesseans out there will have to excuse the screaming you will hear across your state when we drive into their driveway.)😉 We love you, Jasper Ridge. Tell your mama to put on the coffee pot ☕️ and your daddy to gather some eggs 🥚🍳from your chickens 🐔to make an omelette because Kit and Pops will be there soon to celebrate you and your first half trip around the sun.☀️ “Grandchildren are the crown of grandparents, 👑 and parents are the glory of their children.” 💙 Proverbs 17:6
