Lovely memories in a time of upheaval? Yes!

A couple more pictures of Germán with grandkids...and Silly String...and laughs and fun.  (How come Eli didn't get any on him? Only Abuelito and Liliana were hit.)

 Noe got more of a head-full!

Looking through pictures of our five cute grandchildren, we remember that in spite of all the political and moral upheaval going on in the U.S., our family, with our shared faith and values, is a God-structured anchor to true reality.

I found numerous Bible verses that I thought would be very pertinent to a description of Trump.  The temptation was there to add them here...but I decided I should not stoop to his level!

Just a couple of suggestions for him, things to keep in mind:

"What you say flows from what is in your heart." (Luke 6:45)

""A truly wise person uses few words; a person with understanding is even-tempered."  (Proverbs 17:27)

""Those who guard their mouths and their tongues keep themselves from calamity."  (Proverbs 21:23)

But...you know what?  It's not only Trump who should be much more careful what he says (and how he says it).  Especially when considering our interaction with our young children and grandchildren, we would do well to remember the above verses ourselves. Would we have any right to criticize his ethics, insults and massive ego if we don't watch our own ethics, refrain from insults, and remember that, as true followers of Jesus, we should be humble?  It's not always easy, but we have Someone ready to help us with His strength.  (Too bad Trump doesn't know Him the same way.)

"Set a guard, O Lord, over my mouth; keep watch over the door of my lips."   (Psalm 141:3)
