Let’s Roll Back…

For today's post I want to point back to one of my favorite subjects. I first wrote this note some time back but it did not get many views so I want to bring the post back up. It's titled "But God", too many times I've seen plans change. At the moment these changes are usually frustrating … Continue reading Let’s Roll Back…

Better

I was driving the other day home from work when on the radio the song, Better Is One Day, came on. I've not really listened to this song for a long time. I've mentioned reading the book Awe Of God a few weeks ago. I'm re-reading it now because the message in the book really hit me. The Lord … Continue reading Better

Did It Make Sense?

I mentioned the other day I'm reading The Awe Of God by John Bevere. In this morning's reading of the book he mentioned several stories from the bible where things just did not make sense at the time but it became an "Oh" moment. Moments such as Jesus turning water into wine. It made no … Continue reading Did It Make Sense?

Awe

And they were calling to one another: “Holy, holy, holy is the Lord Almighty;    the whole earth is full of his glory.” - Isaiah 6:3 I just started a new book, The Awe Of God by John Bevere. This morning as I read the book I was really hit by Chapter 6 which is titled: Beholding Him. There are … Continue reading Awe

Thankful

I'm trying to be more focused on what I'm thankful for. As I think on it I have so much to list to be thankful. First, I'm thankful for the truth we read in John 3:16,  For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but … Continue reading Thankful

Be Strong & Courageous

The other day my reading and scripture study time took me to the story of Joshua. There's much to say on this story but in the first chapter of the book of Joshua the phrase "Be Strong and Courageous" is said three times to Joshua from God as Joshua was chosen to lead the Jewish, … Continue reading Be Strong & Courageous

Moments Of Influence

I've mentioned before how messages that I need in life seem to repeat. What I thought the other day was the key point hit me this morning as a part of it. There are moments in my life of influence both good and bad but looking back the moments have shaped me in who I … Continue reading Moments Of Influence

Two Years

I did not realize it had been two years until my wife reminded me the other day. Two years ago at the end of September after being in the hospital for about three months I finally got to come home. Oh the journey it has been! The day two years ago was special. Oh the … Continue reading Two Years

But God…

I mentioned last week reading Courage by Mark Clements. I've finished the book but am going back through the book now. It struck me the other day in chapter 2 these sentences: "But God is not surprised by any circumstances. He is especially not surprised by those of His own doing." (Mark Clements, page 19) … Continue reading But God…

Courage

Right now I'm reading Courage - For Perilous Times - Life Lessons from Esther - By: Mark Clements. I could not recommend the book more, each chapter leaves me wishing to keep reading to see what is next. I typically read about two chapters from the book plus the chapters it is referencing in the … Continue reading Courage
