Do Not Fear

Last week I wrote about God is my strength. Last Week's Strength Post This week I'm going to continue with the thought. I just finished my morning reading of scripture and part of the reading was in 2 Chronicles. I thought about a series of verses from this reading and how I'd write about them … Continue reading Do Not Fear

BUT GOD is MY Strength

The habit I've developed over the past few years is waking up early during the week or sleeping in a little on Saturday but then before anything else I read God's word. Right now I'm reading the bible reading plan: "The Bible With Nicky and Pippa Gumbel, Classic Version" with some friends at my church. … Continue reading BUT GOD is MY Strength

All I Really Want…

If you've been around here and read my ramblings you might notice Philippians 1:20 several times. In high school I first was introduced to the verse at church camp. I noted it and it has become my "life verse". I believe I've mentioned that before. The other day I was driving somewhere and the song … Continue reading All I Really Want…

Back To His Table

I'm re-reading a book I read a while back right now. It is Don't Give The Enemy A Seat At Your Table by Louie Giglio. I read chapter 4 this morning and it hit me straight in the teeth. My pastor, Rob Leonard, at Pauline Baptist Church has challenged the church to start memorizing scripture. … Continue reading Back To His Table

Hope!

I posted yesterday on my favorite times of the day. It is an "extra" post this week as I typically post on Tuesdays and Thursdays. As I posted the song "Promises" it says "Great is HIS faithfulness". As I've experienced throughout my life trials come but then looking back on the struggle a time of … Continue reading Hope!

We Shall Behold HIM!

Most days are one rush after the next. As I have moments with the Lord I jot them down in a note on my phone but sometimes I forget what I was thinking about! This week I had several thoughts in my notes as well as a thought from some messages I've heard recently. I … Continue reading We Shall Behold HIM!

It’s The NAME

As I mentioned it was back in 1996 that I met Jesus as my savior. From that moment I was changed! No more fear of death (as a kid death was a constant fear). I was changed in a moment. I called his name, I am washed by His blood, I am forgiven, I am … Continue reading It’s The NAME

The Valley

So, as I talked about last week - He (God) heard his children then and he hears His children now. He's the Same God, He's the ROCK. The other day I got in my truck to go somewhere and a few songs came on the radio that really hit me. I really didn't think about … Continue reading The Valley

The Rock

I think back to my times in the hospital. The times I've been there either before or after surgeries it wasn't a fear of death that got me down but a fear of a changed life. But as I would get down someone would come to encourage me. I usually didn't recognize the encouragement as … Continue reading The Rock

A Six Month (since surgery) Update

Ok, that picture proves it for those of you wondering...I do have a brain! This is from my six month checkup after surgery and the photo is from the MRI I had along with the checkup. My surgeon told me everything looks great and he'll see me at my one year checkup/MRI in November. The … Continue reading A Six Month (since surgery) Update
