My life, as I know it, seemed to come to an end last night. Well at least I felt that way. I carried six boxes of baby food to a little pocket of people down a slippery path. Didn’t weigh much, it’s baby food. Got home, took my shoes off and sat barefoot in our […]
Pain
Revelation 21:4 And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away. King James of Scotland dressed as a beggar and walked among the poor to feel their pain […]
Lines
Psalms 16:6 The lines are fallen unto me in pleasant places; yea, I have a goodly heritage. If you don’t like waiting in lines, do not live in a developing country. I never liked lines. The Army ruined my taste for them. Children love lines, like waiting for food, presents, or a piñata. They […]
Finders Keepers
Genesis 4:9 Then the LORD said to Cain, “Where is your brother Abel?” “I don’t know,” he replied. “Am I my brother’s keeper?” Caine was in big trouble. He just bumped off his brother Abel because God accepted Abel’s sacrifice of a first born, choice lamb. Caine was also mad because God rejected his […]
BusYness
Luke 2:49 And he said unto them, How is it that ye sought me? Wist ye not that I must be about my Father’s business? When people tell me they are ‘slammed’ or ‘busy’ I get frustrated! We are all busy. Relationships should always take precedence over agendas. Especially if you are a follower of Christ. Being […]
Tithe
Hebrews 7:9 And as I may so say, Levi also, who receiveth tithes, payed tithes in Abraham. A tithe literally means 10%. I learned in seminary that theologians love to argue. Worst of all, theologians aren’t very kind people as a rule. FB proves it even more. Arguing is sin, because it’s vanity. Paul said in […]
Move
Acts 20:24 But none of these things move me, neither count I my life dear unto myself, so that I might finish my course with joy, and the ministry, which I have received of the Lord Jesus, to testify the gospel of the grace of God. I promised myself not to become an old man […]
Be Attitude
Matthew 5:16 Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven. Winnie and I used to tell our kids when they were grumpy that we didn’t like their attitudes and that they had 3 minutes to change it. We used to quietly […]
You
Matthew 6:25 Therefore I say unto YOU, take no thought for your life, what ye shall eat, or what ye shall drink; nor yet for your body, what ye shall put on. Is not the life more than meat, and the body than raiment? ‘You’ is a very personal word. In the wrong hands it can aggressive, […]
Fingers
John 8:6 This they said to test him, that they might have some charge to bring against him. Jesus bent down and wrote with his finger on the ground. Hmmmm that sounds familiar, lets see who else wrote with their finger… Deut 9:10 And the LORD delivered unto me two tables of stone written with the finger of […]
