I kept seeing all these old photos on Facebook with #tbt under them. Well, it took me a while, but I finally figured out what it meant!
Haven’t posted these pics yet from when B was around 17 months so here’s our family #tbt.

Faith Dare – Day 23
Dare to quite being critical of others.
The teachers of the law and the Pharisees brought in a woman caught in adultery. They made her stand before the group and said to Jesus, “Teacher, this woman was caught in the act of adultery. In the Law Moses commanded us to stone such women. Now what do you say?” They were using this question as a trap, in order to have a basis for accusing him. But Jesus bent down and started to write on the ground with his finger. When they kept on questioning him, he straightened up and said to them, “If any one of you is without sin, let him be the first to throw a stone at her.”
John 8:3-7

Faith Dare – Day 21
Dare to love well.
Blessed are the pure in heart, for they will see God. Blessed are the peacemakers, for they will be called sons of God…You have heard that it was said, “Love your neighbor and hate your enemy.” But I tell you: Love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you, that you may be sons of your Father in heaven….If you love those who love you, what reward will you get? Are not even the tax collectors doing that? And if you greet only your brothers, what are you doing more than others? Do not even pagans do that? Be perfect, therefore, as your heavenly Father is perfect.
Matthew 5:8-9, 43-38

Faith Dare – Day 20
Dare to speak praise, sing praise, and live with confidence in God.
I ask him to strengthen you by his Spirit – not a brute strength but a glorious inner strength – that Christ will live in you as you open the door and invite him in. And I ask him that with both feet planted firmly on love, you’ll be able to take in with all followers of Jesus the extravagant dimensions of Christ’s love. Reach out and experience the breadth! Test its lengths! Plump the depths! Rise to the heights! Live full lives, full in the fullness of God.

Peach Picking
I always have an interesting time picking fruit with B. With the strawberry picking, he would throw the strawberries in the containers back into the plants. Now with the peach picking, he liked to find the most rotted, disgusting peaches off the ground and add them to our basket. Thanks, B. Gotta love ya. 🙂
Now, what should we make with all these peaches?!?
Faith Dare – Day 18
Dare to live with a new focus.
Let us fix our eyes on Jesus, the author and perfecter of our faith who for the joy set before him endured the cross, scorning its shame, and sat down at the right hand of the throne of God. Consider him who endured such opposition from sinful men, so that you will not grow weary and lose heart.

Faith Dare – Day 17
Dare to live in the miracle of who you are.
For you created my inmost being;
you knit me together in my mother’s womb.
I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made;
your works are wonderful,
I know that full well.
My frame was not hidden from you
when I was made in the secret place.
When I was woven together in the depths of the earth,
your eyes saw my unformed body.
All the days ordained for me
were written in your book
before one of them came to be.
Psalm 139:13-16

Faith Dare – Day 16
Dare to choose whom you will serve and the direction you will take.
And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose. For those God foreknew he also predestined to be conformed to the likeness of his Son.
Romans 8:28-29
Let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us. Let us fix our eyes on Jesus, the author and perfecter of our faith…Do not make light of the Lord’s discipline and do not lose heart when he rebukes you, because the Lord disciplines those he loves…Endure hardship as discipline; God is treating you as sons…God disciplines us for our good, that we may share in his holiness. No discipline seems pleasant at the time, but painful. Later on, however, it produces a harvest of righteousness and peace for those who have been trained by it. Therefore, strengthen your feeble arms and weak knees. “Make level paths for your feet,” so that the lame may not be disabled, but rather healed.
Hebrews 12:1-2,5-7,10-13
