Something to Share

Hey Y'all! The southern side of me keeps popping up lately. It's something I have been trying to hide to often. I still says my eh's? but there's definitely always been a little twang in me.

All that aside, it's somewhat appropriate since I wanted to share a blog post with you that's written by a dear woman from the US of A.

As I was avoiding writing this paper, that is somehow magically going to become 10 pages because I have no more academic writing abilities left in me, I saw that Bithiah had posted something new on her blog. Since I've always loved her writing I decided I should check it out, since I was procrastinating I had even more motivation to do so. I'm so glad I did.

I had the pleasure of getting to know Bithiah, or as I know her Veto, through camp. Just this morning I was looking through some pictures from the camp years and there was her beautiful, smiling face. She was always able to make us ladies laugh at camp, I know that as a camp staff we had more than a few moments of hilarity thanks to her.

But humour aside, this woman is a beautiful writer. Whenever I need a moment of humility her blog is one of the many I will check in on or remind myself of. I think that you will enjoy it as well.

Here's what she posted:

A Letter to Canadian Believers

  Dear brothers and sisters,  I am writing to you from the darkness of my bedroom in the dead of night because my heart aches within me.  I’ve had this song running through my head recently that I learned back in grade three. It goes, “They will know we are Christians by our love, by our love. They will know we are Christians by our love."  I don’t believe this is how Christians are seen anymore which deeply saddens me. When I look at the general state of  North America and the hate that is often spewed and fear that is lobbied like bombs, meant to attack, used to defend, I feel so heavy. I think Christians are known more for our hate- not only for those outside of "us” but for those within "us”.  I think it is truly time for all of us who call ourselves believers and followers of Christ, myself included, to really look at ourselves and look at the Bible. Actually, read for ourselves verses in context, and read to discount our own hypothesis (because this i...

A New Series

 Hello! Thanks for reading this. I know it's been a while. I'm not the most consistent and steady of bloggers so I appreciate you taking the time to even click the link and pop over to my blog! I'm so glad you're here. Recently, as I've been reading the news and talking with close friends I've had this heaviness weighing on me. It is partly the heaviness that comes with the reality that the world is not as it should be. I think no matter your faith background you could probably agree with me on this point. Another aspect of the heaviness comes as I observe and see Christians within Canada (and much of North America) and the way that we show up in spaces. In reflecting on this I had this song pop up in my head that I had learned in elementary school (I went to a Christian school). That song spun out into more reflection and one night when I was lying in bed, unable to sleep because of the sadness (and to be honest anger), I felt prompted to write a letter to my f...

A Letter Reflecting on Unity

  Dear brothers and sisters, I implore us to seek unity with one another, just as John encouraged us to do through his letters to the early church. Let us not be pulled apart by disagreements that lead to hate and division. Can we show the world what it looks like to disagree with love? Can we show what it looks like to have differences but be united because we have something so incredible connecting us that we can’t be pulled apart? We all have this one major, amazing, life changing thing in common, not only with each other in the church but with those outside the church. We are loved by God, who provides and cares for us so deeply. Within the church we recognize the need we have for God, not only for salvation but for true and abiding hope, for unshakable peace and unspeakable joy. We know as a church family that the only reason we can stand before a loving, perfect, Holy God is because Christ stands besides us and reminds God that we have been pardoned because of His sacrifice. ...
