We’ve all had those times where we have tried to be careful how we walk. It might be try- ing to sneak down a hall or into a room without waking someone up. Maybe it was before day- light on a crisp winter day and you are trying not to make any sound so that… Continue reading Careful How You Walk

The Holiday has come and gone, The need to be Thankful has not
Well, we have made through another Thanksgiving holiday season. The turkey, dressing, cranberry sauce, pumpkin pie, and all the casseroles are behind us. Black Friday has come and gone. The Iron Bowl has been played. Now to work off all the junk we have eaten and shake off the laziness that comes with the long… Continue reading The Holiday has come and gone, The need to be Thankful has not
So Many To Be Thankful For
One of my favorite obscure verses in the Bible is Philippians 1:3. Paul simply states, “I thank my God upon every remembrance of you.” It is a simple statement but it is one that has come to have significant meaning for me. Paul is thanking God for the people in his life, specifically his brethren.… Continue reading So Many To Be Thankful For
Be the Reason For Thanksgiving
This is the season for giving thanks. Giving thanks for family, possessions, friendship, abilities, and certainly the blessings we find in God. If I asked you here to list all the blessings in your life, you could probably fill up the rest of this page. If I asked you to list all the people in… Continue reading Be the Reason For Thanksgiving
God is in Control
There’s an interesting narrative about Jehoshaphat in Second Chronicles chapter twenty. As King over Judah, he is faced with three nations allying themselves against God’s people. He was told that a vast army of Moabites, Ammonites, and the Meunites from Mt. Seir were marching toward Jerusalem where he publicly goes to God requesting His intervention… Continue reading God is in Control
The Scariest Thought of All!
So what is the scariest thing to you? What kind of movies or scenarios frighten you the most? Is it spiders? Clowns? Werewolves? Monsters? The list could go on I’m sure. Many people have their own phobias that are as varied from person to person as the costumes that were worn by our kiddos at… Continue reading The Scariest Thought of All!
Connecting God and People Together
The Church is not made of people who believe they are better than others, but rather it is made of those who realize they should be better than they are and must continually strive to do better always. The church is not made up of perfect people, but people who realize they are following a… Continue reading Connecting God and People Together
Christians Preparing to Vote
Election Day is upon us. How will we vote? Will we vote a straight ticket regardless of the convictions of the individual? Let me suggest that we be compelled by our conscience to say like the Apostle Peter: “We must obey God rather than men.” This includes voting with integrity and a good conscience. This principle must… Continue reading Christians Preparing to Vote
Assembling to Worship God
We should want to assemble with the saints to fellowship, learn, encourage and worship. Our attitude should be like David’s, “I was glad when they said to me, Let us go into the house of the Lord” (Ps 122:1). In today’s vernacular we would say, I was glad when they said to me let’s go… Continue reading Assembling to Worship God
Life Is Short
With each passing month I am reminded how short this life is. Job says, “My days are swifter than a weaver’s shuttle” (Job 7:6). Job continues to say, “Man who is born of woman is of a few days and full of trouble. He comes forth like a flower and fades away; he flees like… Continue reading Life Is Short
