Suppose a woman has ten valuable silver coins and loses one. Won’t she light a lamp and look in every corner of the house and sweep every nook and cranny until she finds it? Continue reading

Walking Dead?
I watched my first ever (and probably last) episode of Walking Dead. The premise of the program is a virus has infected mankind. People get a burning hot fever and die only to come back as a zombie. The infection can be spread by being bitten by one of the zombies. The program centers on the survivors more than the infected. Continue reading
Regret
Everyone has some regret over something said or done. Each handles it in a different way.
I carried around the burden of a regret for several years. Then I realized that I could not do anything to change the past – that I can only affect now and the future.
I released that burden. Continue reading
I do and don’t understand but I believe!
Last night at church there was a question about Revelation. To be honest, I’m not sure it was answered.
If you have ever read the book, then you know some of the difficulties and the imagery involved.
Some things are pretty easy, like seeing a Lamb as though it had been slain (Rev 5:6) is obviously a reference to Jesus the Messiah Savior. Continue reading
Protecting Life
One of the great sins of our nation is its failure to protect the unborn. They are seen as disposable tissue with no purpose and not life. Certainly in the hands of lawmakers and abortionists the unborn have no chance. Continue reading
Mom, the Lord is with you!
I was in a restaurant last week and the waitress, whom I have known since her birth, came over to take our order. I asked her, “When is the wedding date?”
She gave me a look and said, “I’m not even going out with anyone!” Continue reading
God’s word in your heart, mind – in your life!
Aaron saw how excited the people were, so he built an altar in front of the calf. Then he announced, “Tomorrow will be a festival to the LORD!”
The people got up early the next morning to sacrifice burnt offerings and peace offerings. After this, they celebrated with feasting and drinking, and they indulged in pagan revelry. Ex 32:5-6 Continue reading
As children grow – worries grow!
Life can be very difficult. Think about it.
You are brought into this world and are taken care of.
Someone feeds you, clothes you, and cleans you up. All you have to do is watch TV, play, and maybe do a few chores as you get older. Continue reading
What I remember!
It’s strange to me the things one remembers in life.
It’s like I remember mom carrying me to the car and putting my shoes on but I don’t remember anything else around that time.
I’m not very sure that I can remember things in the right order. Continue reading
What can I do for You?
There are several places in the Bible where the phrase “what do you want me to do” appears. Most of them involve that ability to see.
In Matthew 20:32, Mark 10:51 and Luke 18:41, Jesus asked the question, “What do you want me to do for you?”
The response was “Lord, that our eyes may be opened”, “Rabboni, that I may receive my sight”, and “Lord, that I may receive my sight.” Continue reading
