Love is Just a Sniff Away
I never ceased to be amazed at the number of ways God speaks to us. I see Him say, “I love you” through a robin’s eggs, sunsets, purple-flowered weeds, hugs from children, a snuggle with your Bride, and a cool breeze upon a sweaty brow. By His grace, God has opened my eyes to His…

Teachable Moments
“I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me” (Philippians 4:13 NKJV). Jackson and his Dad came over the other day to help get Christmas decorations down from the attic. Now you may not think that would be a big deal, but Wanda has more Christmas stuff than Walmart. One day, if you hear…

In Everything Give Thanks
“No matter what happens, always be thankful, for this is God’s will for you who belong to Christ Jesus” (1 Thessalonians 5:18 NLT). We watched a documentary last night about two brothers who suffered from retinitis pigmentosa, a degenerative eye disorder which gradually leads to blindness. The twins inherited the disorder from their mother who…

You Have Not Because You Ask Not
“You parents—if your children ask for a loaf of bread, do you give them a stone instead? 10 Or if they ask for a fish, do you give them a snake? Of course not! 11 So if you sinful people know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your heavenly…

Punkin’s Wilderness Experience
1 Peter 5:7 NLT— Give all your worries and cares to God, for he cares about you. We lost Punkin last week. Punkin is our cat. Wanda still calls her Cinderella which is her given name, but she is Punkin to me. She spent a year at the vet’s office as a homeless cat. No…

I’m Still Learning
“Always learning but never able to acknowledge the truth” (2 Timothy 3:7 NIV). I’ve spent my entire life learning. I have a bachelor’s degree and two master’s degrees and have been to more seminars and read more books than I can count. As I become more and more chronologically gifted, I’m still learning. I’m learning…

Fearfully and Wonderfully Made
praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful; I know that full well (Psalm 139:14 NIV). I take a lot of pills in the morning. Supplements, allergy, blood pressure pills. A lot of pills some of which are very small. I take a whole handful at one time. This morning…

You Can’t Fool God
All the peoples of the earth are regarded as nothing. He does as He pleases with the powers of heaven and the peoples of the earth. No one can hold back His hand or say to Him: “What have You done?” —Daniel 4:35 NIV Has it ever occurred to you that nothing has ever occurred…

I’m a Little Nostalgic
“Listen, my child, to what your father teaches you. Don’t neglect your mother’s teaching. What you learn from them will crown you with grace and clothe you with honor” (Proverbs 1:8-9 NLT). Do you know the first requirement for salvation from your sins? Admitting that you are a sinner and taking responsibility for the choices…

The Ancient Paths
For they have deserted Me and turned to worthless idols. They have stumbled off the ancient highways of good, and they walk the muddy paths of sin. Therefore, their land will become desolate, a monument to their stupidity. All who pass by will be astonished and shake their heads in amazement at its utter desolation …
