I like to listen to XM Bookradio while I’m driving to work in the mornings.
Yesterday morning I was listening to a book that was written by a British author.
I know this because of some terms used for parts of an automobile like bonnet and boot which is the hood and trunk.
There was one other term that confused me for just a moment. Continue reading

Is It I?
Did I not choose you, the twelve, and one of you is a devil? John 6:70
Imagine for a moment that you are one of the twelve disciples and hear this statement.
You couldn’t help but wonder if He’s talking about you. Continue reading
It’s Right In Front Of Your Nose
I remember running into Miss Darlene not too long ago and she reminded me of one of her funny stories about aging.
She told about going to the grocery store, digging out her list of grocery items.
She looked in her glasses case but it was empty.
“Oh no! Where are my glasses?” she thought. Continue reading
Wolves, Bad Fruit, & Lukewarm
“I know your works, that you are neither cold nor hot. I could wish you were cold or hot. So then, because you are lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will vomit you out of My mouth.” Rev 3:15-16
Another confusing, lukewarm issue is this; there are far too many “preachers” more interested in Continue reading
Lukewarm Is A Misuse Of God’s Name
“I know your works, that you are neither cold nor hot. I could wish you were cold or hot. So then, because you are lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will vomit you out of My mouth.” Rev 3:15-16
Yesterday I looked at the result of combining good and evil lifestyles into a mixture of lukewarm. Continue reading
Lukewarmness
What is lukewarm?
While praying about and then writing yesterday’s Morning Thought, I had an open-my-eyes moment; it all made sense.
Jesus said in Rev 3:15-16, “I know your works, that you are neither cold nor hot. I could wish you were cold or hot. So then, because you are lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will vomit you out of My mouth.” Continue reading
A definitive statement on living for Jesus.
I saw a Facebook status pop up on Sunday evening from a young college girl in Texarkana.
This is what she said; Don’t go out and get drunk on a Saturday night and the next morning make a status about how much you love Jesus. Be one way or the other! Revelation 3: 15-16 Continue reading
Become Accountable
I take my Christianity very seriously!
I try not to do anything to bring dishonor to my Lord and Savior; this is a full time effort that seems to be getting easier as years go by.
Perhaps it is because for so long I have worked at not cussing, not getting excessively angry, watching where I go, and avoiding danger zones on the Internet. Continue reading
It’s Not Too Late
Turn at my rebuke. Surely I will pour out my spirit on you; I will make my words known to you. Prov 1:23
What a wonderful promise from the Lord.
Who would not want God’s Spirit poured upon them; to feel His sweet presence in all that we do, not just at church but at work, at school, at a ball game, in Wal-Mart; anywhere you are. Continue reading
Early
I’ve been up since early this morning when a wrong number woke me up at 2am.
I lay in bed for an hour and was just about to doze off to sleep (maybe) when a thunderstorm started rumbling its way toward me.
So I got up.
Now that may be early for me but it may be late for you. Continue reading
