This is something we started at home. First and Last Words.
We made a pact that the first and last words that we speak
to someone each day are pleasant. I have 4 and another one on the way. From an adult
who is no longer with us to one that is due in January
which will make 4 again. All under the age of 7. They can (and

God Is Love, God Is Love! 8/27/2007
“As many as I love, I rebuke and chasten; be zealous therefore,
and repent.” Rev.3:19
In reading the Bible have you suddenly happened on this
passage and then pulled back in disbelief? The idea that
God should rebuke and chasten may seem incomprehensible;
but remember, it is the glorified, risen Christ who spoke
these words. And when you look straight at the heart of ...
