“Weekly Inspiration Roundup – Vol. 9
Posted on September 8, 2017 by Christy B
It’s Friday! What, you didn’t need the reminder? 😉 Here is the latest in inspiration from around the blogging world. Let’s keep raising one another up with written words!
The History of American Labor
On Labor Day Monday, the blogger known as who is known as His Perfect Timing, which is also the name of her blog, shared a post on American labor, then and now. Her words of gratitude as an employee, supervisor, mother, and grandmother are beautiful to read.”
Now our Lord Jesus Christ himself, and God, even our Father, which hath loved us, and hath given us everlasting consolation and good hope through grace, Comfort your hearts, and establish you in every good word and work.
2 Thessalonians 2:16-17
Happy Monday! Life has been challenging in Florida, but we are so thankful and blessed. Last night our power was out, but this morning we have electricity. We have cool temperatures, strong winds and rain, but the weather we are experiencing is nothing compared to other places in Florida. My son, who lives in Tallahassee, is without electricity this morning, but otherwise safe. My son-in-law left for south Florida on Thursday. He’s been in Fort Meyers helping in shelters and with other needs in the area. The stories he has shared are sad. Provisions are limited and people are hungry. We’ve been helping my daughter. She’s a nurse and college student. She’s been working midnight shift, so we’ve had a little visitor . . . our sweet grandson. What a blessing! We took him with us to church yesterday. He was very well-behaved and the other parishioners were glad to see him.
Don’t you love that smile! He’s telling me that he is Batman Mickey Mouse and I’m the Flash.
I have heard so many wonderful stories about our community. Local residents have been donating supplies, money, food and time to our local shelters. The Wal-Mart parking lot is full of travelers with nowhere to stay. A local church cooked and served these evacuees food. The stories I’ve heard warm my heart and should be more mainstream news. Not only did the efforts help those in need, but they taught others, especially younger generations, how Christians should help others in need. That is something good!
Yesterday was also the first time I taught Sunday School. I wasn’t expecting to see many people during the storm, but I had about 10-12 people in my class. That’s pretty good for a small church. Sometimes God asks us to step out of our comfort zone and do his work. That is what happened to me. I was a little nervous, but I learned so much from those who attended my class and had so much fun! I can hardly wait until next week. It feels good to do God’s work.
The storm certainly isn’t over. If you are in the path be safe. My husband and I always pray for my viewers and followers, and we pray for your safety through this storm, too. If you are safe, step out of your comfort zone and find a way to help others, as Jesus would do. God bless you.
