Estefan Acts 7:59 While they were stoning him, Stephen prayed, “Lord Jesus, receive my spirit.” Estefan is the Spanish name for Stephen. Estefan is a kid at our feeding center. Remember him? The Piñata thief from last year’s party. A very hard case. Some would say an impossible case. More than one person visiting here […]

humanism
Humanism Acts 8:18-19 When Simon saw that the Spirit was given at the laying on of the apostles’ hands, he offered them money and said, “Give me also this ability so that everyone on whom I lay my hands may receive the Holy Spirit.” Simon thought he saw a formula that he could purchase to […]

12 hours John 11:9King James Version (KJV) 9 Jesus answered, Are there not twelve hours in the day? If any man walk in the day, he stumbleth not, because he seeth the light of this world. 99.99999% of the good things that happen to me happens just because I show up. Cause I walk onto […]
Yay
YAY Matthew 5:37King James Version (KJV) 37 But let your communication be, Yea, yea; Nay, nay…. This is King James English. In those days the word for yes was YEA. When we are happy, we say YEA, or better spelled, YAY!! a hold back from the 1600’s. I think YAY came from a big YES […]
pre k is like heaven
Matthew 19:14 But Jesus said, Suffer little children, and forbid them not, to come unto me: for of such is the kingdom of heaven. Our Pre-K started on Monday. We are so happy. I had my first teaching job when I was still in the army. When I returned to CONUS, I was given the job […]
you
YOU! Efesians 2. … As for YOU!,,,, I remember that phrase from an incident in elementary school! It makes my blood run cold to this day. It is a great argument against teachers carrying fire-arms in public school. Once I had the whole classroom going when our little old blue haired school teacher stepped out […]

CRITERIA John 13:7 Jesus answered and said unto him, What I do thou knowest not now; but thou shalt know hereafter. Jesus answered people when they tried to communicate with them.

taste
Taste (re-aired) Psalm 34:8 Taste and see that the LORD is good. We try to encourage the children to pray before they eat. Once a little boy prayed. LORD, HELP DEAN TO BEHAVE HIMSELF TODAY, AND MAKE THE FOOD TASTE GOOD! I don’t know if the Lord answered the first request, but the food […]
Late
LATE! Timeliness is a man thing, not a Jesus thing. Waves of kids never stop. There will always be MORE late ones than punctual ones. Do you know that Jesus never yelled at any one for being late? It’s because He was late sometimes too! Yup, Jesus was LATE from time to time. Even when […]

Paths Psalm 16:11King James Version (KJV) 11 Thou wilt shew me the path of life: in thy presence is fullness of joy; at thy right hand there are pleasures for evermore. Sorry I haven’t been writing much. Been at the doctor. He has me on a diet, and told me to walk 10,000 steps a […]
Titus 1:15 Unto the pure all things are pure: but unto them that are defiled and unbelieving is nothing pure. A pastor asked me “Why do you post so much stuff about your every move?” I was kind of shocked. I replied, “I believe in the power of prayer, don’t you?” James 5:16 says, […]
Honor
HONOR – Rom 9:21 Has not the potter power over the clay, of the same lump to make one vessel unto honor, and another unto dishonor? God is the potter, we are the clay. We, as clay, are formed (past tense) into vessels by His hand. Some vessels were made pretty and perfect. Some vessels […]
Evening
Evening Genesis 3:8 New Living Translation When the cool evening breezes were blowing, the man and his wife heard the LORD God walking about in the garden. So they hid from the LORD God among the trees. There is absolutely NOTHING like taking a walk in the cool of the day in Nicaragua. After […]
mercy
MERCY my favorite theology. Micah 6:8 ……..what doth the LORD require of thee, but to do justly, and to love mercy, and to walk humbly with thy God? I love that verse,, It is completely do-able!

Visitors Hebrews 13:2 Do not neglect to show hospitality to strangers, for thereby some have entertained angels unaware They have lots of sayings about doing something different to get different results. 1.

REST
REST Genesis 2:2 And on the seventh day God ended his work which he had made; and he rested on the seventh day from all his work which he had made. God’s work was done so He rested. BECAUSE HIS WORK WAS DONE. People in general LOVE a day off. I have some questions though. For […]

BROKEN 1 corinthians 11;24Jesus took the bread, and when he had given thanks, he brake it, and said, Take, eat: this is my body, which is broken for you: God breaks stuff usually before He uses it. He broke the 5 fishes and 2 pieces of bread and fed 5000 people. He was brought […]
Self-talk
Self-Talk Psalm 103:1 Bless the Lord, O my soul: and all that is within me, bless his holy name. Who was King David talking to? He was talking to himself, his essence, which is his soul. The Bible is full of Self-Talk. Self-Talk is good. It is not bad, if you are saying good […]

Disappointed Hebrews 9:27(KJV) 27 And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment: Appointments are dates, or times when you need to be some place.
