Everything that isn’t Jesus
Love the part about putting on Christ. But in "trying" to chip away all that is not Christ are we not putting back on the flesh again after having been instructed to reckon it dead. By focusing on our flesh and in our own estimation beginning to chip away at it, are we not ultimately giving it life and more attention than it deserves. Our flesh is dead, we are not to involve ourselves in the practice of necromancy. We focus on Christ in the Word and our mind will be renewed by the washing of

What color is my dad’s hair?
Your publicist sent me The Gospel of Yes! I'm barely into it and loving it already-- made me want to stop and look you up.

I just would rather not ……

What color is my dad’s hair?

  The other day I was walking and I began to try and imagine what Dad was doing in heaven. Was he happy? What did he look like? Would I be able to recognize him? That led me to another question…what color is my dad’s hair. Here is why that matters. My father had beautiful silver hair. His hair looks like finely spun strands of pure silver.  It was one of the most distinguishing features of my dad.  Whenever I was looking for my dad, I would look for his hair. You could always find him in a crowd But ……
