Lord, Lord, open to us Matt 25:11
It is a legitimate question that you should answer truthfully and honestly – how important is God to you?
Many wait until some last minute ditch effort in their life to suddenly make God a number one priority Continue reading

Washed!
Then the LORD said to Moses, “Go to the people and consecrate them today and tomorrow, and let them wash their clothes.” Ex 19:10
Think of how difficult it was to wash clothes back then. You can moan, groan, and complain but you have it made today compared to the standards of 1000 years ago or even 100 years ago. Continue reading
Refreshing Rain!
Let my teaching drop as the rain Deut 32:2
Last year was the worst drought I have seen in all my life.
It was the driest and the hottest that I ever remember.
Wildfires broke out all over the state; and Lake Sam Rayburn dropped and dropped to 18 feet below normal. Continue reading
Get to know someone!
As Saul watched David go out to fight the Philistine, he asked Abner, the commander of his army, “Abner, whose son is this young man?”

So You Wanna Go Back To Egypt.
Then they plotted among themselves, “Let’s choose a new leader and go back to Egypt!” Num 14:4
I was reading in my Bible where the Israelites decided they could not take over the promise land.
After being delivered from bondage in Egypt, they decided they wanted to go back into that bondage. Continue reading
You can’t DVR it all!
I love a DVR!
If you don’t know what that is, it stands for Digital Video Recorder. It’s pretty well a standard on most satellite TV receivers.
It allows you to record hundreds of hours of movies, programs, shows, cartoons, or Home Shopping Network (if that’s your thing). Continue reading
It’s Secure!
We are now in the process of securing the new A/C units at the church.
I’ve been doing lots of research on different ways to do this, most are secured by alarms or cages.
I found a place in Texas that has cages but some of the men in church believe we can build it for much less. I do too! Continue reading
God’s Will
Have you ever heard someone say they were right in the will of God and it seemed to you that they weren’t?
I see it all the time. I don’t believe a person can be a purposefully sinning and be doing God’s will.
What is sin but to go against the will of God, Continue reading
The message you get when you meditate on God’s word
Last night at church I made the statement that all of the Bible is inspired by God and has a message and purpose for us.
I was challenged to find purpose in Josh 12.
I’ll admit that it is a bit difficult to keep your mind on what is being read and not drift off into some other thought. But then, that may prove my point.
Josh 12 says: Continue reading
Kindred spirits in the ministry
As each one has received a gift, minister it to one another, as good stewards of the manifold grace of God. If anyone speaks, let him speak as the oracles of God. If anyone ministers, let him do it as with the ability which God supplies, that in all things God may be glorified through Jesus Christ, to whom belong the glory and the dominion forever and ever. Amen. 1 Peter 4:10-11 Continue reading
