Ebenezer....

Nope, not scrooge....but raising an ebenezer. Yes, I know....Lynne "P" and I used to laugh everytime we sang that hymn, but that was when I was stupid and unenlightened. NOW....i have marginally more knowledge and NOW I understand that raising an ebeneezer is basically setting up a monument in testimony to God's faithfulness. You know, I don't think we can have enough of those...and I think setting up those monuments gives us something to cling to when we think God isn't paying attention. So....I now "raise an ebenezer"...I give testimony to God and His unfailing love AND his presence and very real caring in my life. I think we spend so much of our lives stumbling around in the dark and then every now and then He shines a brilliant laser beam of light on us to remind us He is there.
