Our One True Love

I love a good love story. One of my favorite movies is Pride and Prejudice. It is one of those movies that I can watch over and over. I recently discovered another movie that I love. It’s called, Far From the Madding Crowd. I am not a bit embarrassed to say that I’ve already watchedContinue reading “Our One True Love”

A Quiet Strength

I watched something interesting the other day. A hawk was perched atop a light pole and an angry crow was repeatedly dive bombing him. Now I don’t know if the hawk did something to incite the attack or if the crow simply saw the hawk as a potential threat and therefore figured he better tryContinue reading “A Quiet Strength”

The Same God

Do you ever find yourself putting God into two different categories? For instance, “Bible Times” God and “Modern Times” God? I think sometimes I unwittingly do. I read God’s Word, both Old and New Testaments, and the numerous accounts of miracles, deliverances, provisions, and so forth and I think, “Wow, that’s so cool how GodContinue reading “The Same God”

Help!

We live right off of one of the main streets in our town. In fact, our backyard is only about 50 yards away from it. That being said, because our house is so close to the main road, we hear every ambulance, fire truck, and police car that whizzes by. And let me tell you,Continue reading “Help!”

Dad

I consider myself to be one of the fortunate ones to have a kind and loving father. Growing up, I had a dad who was there. He worked hard to provide for us and when he wasn’t working he took the time to be with us. My dad has never been the overly affectionate type,Continue reading “Dad”

Did God Really Say?

I realized something this week. I realized that Satan is just as crafty today as he was in the garden with Adam and Eve. Satan is the ultimate deceiver, while God is the ultimate Truth. Every human being is faced with this fact: God offers salvation; Satan offers death in disguise. I think for usContinue reading “Did God Really Say?”

Happy New Year!

I don’t know about you, but for me, this time of year is always bittersweet. The closing of one year and the beginning of another is both happy and sad at the same time. As the previous year closes, I can’t help but take stock in what has transpired over the last twelve months. Just likeContinue reading “Happy New Year!”

Seek God

I’m looking out the window watching the sun go down and the light slowly fade. Another day is coming to a close. And in just a handful of hours, the dawn will break again and a new day will begin. Life. A continuum of sunrises and sunsets filled with ever changing moments of joy, sorrow,Continue reading “Seek God”

He Sees You

Everyday, when I’m sitting in the parking lot of our son’s school waiting to pick him up, I always watch for him to come out. The bell rings and within mere moments, a sea of Junior High students come flooding out. It never fails, no matter how many kids there are encompassing where he isContinue reading “He Sees You”

Give Thanks!

This past Thanksgiving week, I was given the opportunity to apply 1 Thessalonians 5:18. It started Monday afternoon when our youngest son came home from a friends’ house saying he didn’t feel well. It didn’t take long for his complaints of a stomachache to come to full fruition. I will spare you the details, butContinue reading “Give Thanks!”
