Assuredly, I say to you, unless you are converted and become as little children, you will by no means enter the kingdom of heaven. Matt 18:3
Linda and I made a quick trip to Dallas and back after church on Sunday. We just had to see our grandson, Barrett. Continue reading

It’s only a number!
Do you have a favorite number?
I do, I always have. My preference is actually two numbers; 5 and 7 and probably stems from the fact that my birthday is May 7th.
There are many people that play a lottery using the same numbers over and over. And there have been a few instances of winners that played for years using the same series of numbers over and over. Continue reading
O, Say Can You See…Jesus
There was once a man sent to secure the release of a prisoner-of-war. He was successful but could not escort the man home until the enemy had ended an attack against an American fort.
During the night, there had been only occasional sounds of the fort’s guns returning fire. Continue reading
Entertain an angel!
There is some scripture, neatly tucked away in Hebrews, that you may have read at one time or another; don’t forget to show hospitality to strangers, for some who have done this have entertained angels without realizing it! Heb 13:2
I don’t know if you take this to heart but I do. Continue reading
Let God’s Word Work In You!
I’ll be honest with you; sometimes I sit at my computer, praying, reading scripture, and staring at a blank page.
I think to myself, “What is wrong today? I can’t think of anything to say. I can’t write a Morning Thought if I don’t have any thoughts.” Continue reading
This one is for Katie!
Even a child is known by his deeds, whether what he does is pure and right. Prov 20:11
I want to take time to honor my friend.
Van Walker was one of my very best friends through high school. He was not an acquaintance – we hung together, ate lunch together, sat together; we were together on weekends, whether at the beach or camping on the Trinity River. Continue reading

And I want women to be modest in their appearance. They should wear decent and appropriate clothing… 1 Tim 2:9
Kylie Bisutti, a Victoria’s Secret lingerie model, recently quit that job because it conflicted with her Christian beliefs, and to save her body for her husband.
She will still model, but only in ways that honor the Lord. Continue reading
Quit stealing…
Listen to this, you who rob the poor and trample down the needy! Amos 8:4
Last time the subject was on being a thief.
After meditating on God’s word a bit more I realized it is more than stealing someone’s blessing by denying their giving; it is also about stealing their encouragement, happiness, hope, and joy. Continue reading
I’m no longer a thief!
Pick up any newspaper, go online and read any wire service, or turn on a televisions news channel and you will soon see and hear a story about robbery.
Whether it’s high officials in the government or a young man at a convenience store, the motive is the same, to take what doesn’t belong to you, by force if necessary. Continue reading
It Can Change!
In every place of worship, I want men to pray with holy hands lifted up to God, free from anger and controversy.
And I want women to be modest in their appearance. They should wear decent and appropriate clothing and not draw attention to themselves by the way they fix their hair or by wearing gold or pearls or expensive clothes. For women who claim to be devoted to God should make themselves attractive by the good things they do. 1 Tim 2:8-10 Continue reading
