Well, I feel like I need to stay home today and do lunges and squats and push-ups to get ready for the big game tonight. I need to stay focused. So don’t bother me about stuff like whether or not womans can exegete.

@ftwglobal I took a picture of this porcupine a couple of weeks ago in Palo Duro Canyon, outside of Canyon, Texas USA. He was about 50ft up in a tree.

Animal of the Week: American Porcupine Unlike their African cousins, these elusive critters spend much of their lives in the trees. Not endangered, but rarely seen. Head into the woods at dawn/dusk and look up! 🧡 FTW #ftw #ftwglobal #freethewild #animaloftheweek #wildlife

You guys are so wonderful. Truly you keep me on here. When people talk about all the meanness, I think to myself, you’re not blocking, muting & ignoring enough. Lol. Thank you for your prayers for us! And I do mean us because I HAVE MY HANDS FULL. We’re better & turning a corner!

My guy’s been really sick again. Home from the hospital now but you wouldn’t waste a prayer on us.

@BethMooreLPM What kind of owl is it? Does it need an owl house? I might could make you one! I love making bird houses.

An owl hooted all through my devotional time this morning, an accompaniment which delighted me to the mere extremities. It didn’t sound like Owl Mohler. His hoots have a certain ring to them. I think it well could have been Owl Lelujah.

What I love most in all the world is to go to the Lord, tumble my arms full of burdens, concerns, aches and asks at his feet, then turn my face to the Scriptures and my focus to the throne and find myself enthralled in such a way to forget for just a whit I ever had them. It does not always happen that way. He is always present by faith but not always so dashingly apparent. But when he is, the time is sufficiently sublime that I think to myself, this is what eternal worship will be about: losing ourselves in Jesus, swept up in the grandeur of him, oblivious to time, light in his Light.

Because Beth graciously responded publicly, I want to do the same. Beth, couple quick things... 1) The creation mandate to "be fruitful and multiply" is given as sort of the "default mode" of humanity. This was the general *command* (not suggestion) given to mankind as a general whole. So yes, it is *definitely* a good thing to encourage people in general toward marriage and children, and marrying a cute girl who loves Jesus and having lots of kids is *definitely* a way to live a consequential life. I didn't say it was the ONLY way, but I definitely think it is not only *a* way, but the *primary* way God would have most people do it. 2) I'm speaking as a man to young men, and I can tell you with a very high degree of certainty the vast majority of men need to apply the command, "It is better to marry than to burn with passion" more than trying for Paul's singleness, which even he acknowledges will be the exception rather than the rule. 3) Probably just an accidental oversight, but you omitted in your reply the "who loves Jesus" part of my encouragement to young men when looking for who they're marrying. I did not say "just look for a cute girl" 4) I surely don't think you're saying this, but for any onlookers who are - good grief. Surely, we're not scolding young men for wanting to find a woman he's attracted to to marry? If anything, the Bible sets forward the example that a man should be and stay passionately, joyfully attracted to his wife (Prov 5, SoS, Gen 2) We have got to stop scolding young men for virtually any drive, desire, or masculine instinct they have. Those are God-given, and should be harnessed for his glory. 5) I fear this is a good example of CS Lewis' admonition that Satan is always confusing Christians to try to solve the opposite NET problem they are facing and "bringing a fire extinguisher to a flood." We have generationally-low marriage rates, generationally-low birthrates, the collapse of the family, people waiting until their 30's to get married (long past their biological clocks and most fertile years), cultural population collapse, and the rise of "stay single, wine-down-Wednesday, and travel, YOLO culture"... I don't think the primary problem we are facing is that young men are too focused on marrying godly women when they are young and having big families.

Josh, you have been so dear to me. I legitimately love you. I don’t even like writing this reply but I’m flummoxed. Numbers 4 and 5. What are we to make of the apostle Paul whose life was the furthest thing from inconsequential and unfulfilled? Or of his recommendation of singleness to those who could control their passions? And, Josh, cute girls? Is that our qualification for being a good pick to marry?

Possibly I am...I’m so longing for a community of believers that actually love like Jesus instead of taking cheap shots at each other. I’ve been battered and bruised by spiritual bullies most of my life. I see so much of it on X. Breaks my heart. I’m tired of staying silent while women like Beth are assaulted by judgement and hatred simply because she is a woman that shares God’s Word and teaches. If I were not already a Christ follow…these types of bullying behaviors would drive me away from Christ. Glad Jesus loves her and me. Truthfully….that’s what matters.

Really Harry…not much love or humility in that comment. Beth Moore has been a blessing in my life and pointed me towards Christ through her teachings. I’ve learned so much from her. I don’t understand why there are “believers” who are quick to be so hateful and arrogant and continue to assault this woman of God. But I’m tired of it! @BethMooreLPM this woman has your back. Thank you for continuing to teach and share Christ with me. Please don’t ever let the haters get to you…people like me need Jesus. I need teachers like you. I long for the honesty and integrity in how you teach. I love Jesus so much, but I’m so exhausted by the meanness coming from “Christians.” My heart literally aches. I see Jesus shining in you and through you. You may not need defended…but I needed to defend you!!!

@howertonjosh @BethMooreLPM With all Christian love and humility, I wouldn’t listen to Beth Moore on a recommendation for a veterinarian much less Christian dating or marriage. The deceiver has been using her for quite awhile and she needs prayer.

I know right now the reason some of y’all don’t like me is because the Lord shows me great birds. Can I help it if the rare Eastern Towhee was in my woods this morning?? Or that I just had a visitation by the deaconess of all believing birds, the Eastern Phoebe?

@BethMooreLPM I've been homeless for 12 years due to magic & mind control. Talk about crosses to bear.. most of my Christian friends don't understand/care/offer me alms. Free will isn't even biblically guaranteed. Unusual suffering and it's fruit is peerless but I know God believes me.

This way of life so beautifully packaged that sounds free and fun and still makes room somewhere for Jesus is not exactly the life he called his disciples to. We naturally want Jesus without the baggage. That’s completely understandable. But there is one piece of baggage that comes with Jesus. A cross. I don’t particularly love this part either but it doesn’t change what he designed. Jesus said to us, if anyone wants to come after me, let those persons deny themselves, take up their cross and follow me. We’re called to lay down our self-centered lives and, in effect, lose them and, in turn, find this Jesus life we were created to live and a love that would be utterly beyond us. This way of the cross, this way of daily seeking (not always succeeding) to decentralize self and centralize Christ, has not been, for me, religious bondage and legalism. It has been my freedom. It has been the healing of a self destructive and deceitful heart. If I had just done whatever I was drawn to, I’m pretty sure I’d long since be dead. I don’t hate myself. I don’t deny my feelings and emotions. I don’t distrust every desire of my heart. I don’t have to analyze them constantly. I can trust a good many of them but, honestly, only because Jesus is Lord and I’m not. Jesus is not just our help though he is certainly that. He is not just an aside to our lives or a means to manifesting our dreams. For those who follow him, what we discover increasingly along this rocky way is that Jesus is our life. Our whole life. And this life in all its hardship and suffering and befuddlement is a good life that gives itself to others, that loves sacrificially and is willing to lose in order for others to win Christ. And this life gives way in the blink of an eye to a life of everlasting joys in his presence. Hold tight to the gospel.

@BethMooreLPM That cross is heavy today… hurting for those I’m called to serve. Trusting the Lord today when the road before me seems impossible. I must hold on to the truth that God is love and truth. I’m weary and need renewed strength to carry this cross.
