Our greatest need is connection, to be known, to be seen. But most of us are not brave enough. We have too much to hide. Too much shame. Too much fear. But we have a Father who does see us. He knows us completely. Even our shame. And he chose to love us. He is faithful to it. He wants you to know it's safe to love him back. He forgives you. He completes you. He fills you with joy and wonder. He has given you purpose. That purpose is love. Here are a few scraps of thought so you can "see" me.

Student Devotions September 9, 2008
I am hoping this devotional turns out better than yesterday's. The video was too large yesterday. Now I am afraid it may be too small. I will have to experiment with it to get it just right. :-) Where is baby bear when you need him?
There is some things that do catch our eyes......and sometimes hard to resist...but that's when discipline comes in. We should have the discipline to say "No" to whatever it is we isn't right in the sight of God
She shouldn't have looked at it... nope.... now look at the pickle we're in... Curiosity... not a good thing sometimes... a lot, actually... it seems to cause a lot of problems... better off without it....
I agree with Sasha and Ray. 1. We should have someone there to remind and help us. 2. Curiosity CAN be bad, but ONLY sometimes. If it weren't for curiosity, we wouldn't have the technology we have today (its only the person using the technology that makes it bad). But, I am curious about one thing. What kind of fruit was it? Most people say it was an apple, but it doesn't say in the Bible what it was. :D

I find it's dumb how satan tried to tempt Jesus with the kingdoms, i mean it's like wowww, like they weren't already his
There are alot of things that satan uses to tempt us but we can always resist. Its are choice.
PS. I thinkl the fruit was a banana!
I think that we do need someone beside us to help us ; make the good chooses but also to make us release when we are going to fell into temptation.
I think it was an apple...but Sasha is right, we do need someone.
