HOLD ON, I’M COMING! No Stumble..No Bumble Jude V 24-25 Now to Him who is able to keep you from stumbling, and to present you faultless before the presence of His glory, with exceeding joy; God alone is our Savior. He alone is wise; to Him be glory, majesty, and power now and forever. Thank the Good Lord, He transformed the dysfunctional caterpillar, and released a beautiful butterfly from the chrysalis of baggage. That was me folks! However, ”He that waits upon the Lord shall renew his strength,” and I did! However, it was His timing, not…
THE RECREATION OF DUDLEY He Burned the Right Bridges Psalm 23 :1-3 The Lord is my shepherd. I shall not want. He makes me to lie down in green pastures. He leads me beside still waters. He restores my soul. Laurence Peter: The hardest thing to learn in life is which bridge to cross, and which bridge to burn. For all practical purposes, I’ll name him Dudley. This is a true story of a rich, (pardon the language) smart-ass punk, who balanced the beam between heaven and hell, life and death, and rebirth and destruction. All I…
MAN’S INNATE NEED TO WORSHIP Faith Brings Strength, Peace, and Wisdom Colossians 2:2-3 This is what I ask of you; that you will have the rich experience of knowing Christ with real certainty and clear understanding. For God’s secret plan, now at last made known, is Christ Himself. In Him lie hidden all the mighty, untapped treasures of wisdom and knowledge. History books and the Bible are loaded with examples. Cults, Scientology, Idol Worshippers, Islam, Buddism, Hinduism: It’s just as present now, as it was 2,000 years ago. Modern day idols include the following…
DEAR JESUS, HELP ME TO BECOME MORE LIKE YOU Song: Open the eyes of my heart, Lord; the song says it all. Psalm 139:23-24 Search me, O God and know my heart. Test me and know my anxious thoughts. See if there is any offensive way in me, and lead me in the way everlasting. Anyone that is A TRUE CHRISTIAN, wants to do the right thing. We are all sinners, and we fall and make mistakes. That’s why God gave us His Grace. He paid the price, in full. However, life is a journey. God builds…
DEVOURING THE SICK MEDIA DON KNOTTS…”Who Me Worry? Nope!” Psalm 37:7 Be still in the presence of the Lord, and wait upon Him to act. Don’t fret about evil people who prosper, or fret about their evil schemes. Yes , I’m wise in life experience. If anyone remembers the 50’s as vehemently as I do, you remember crazy variety shows like Ernie Kovacs and Steve Allen. On the Steve Allen Show, he did his skit called “Men on the Street.” The following actors got their start in comedic entertainment :Don Knotts, Tom Poston, Louis Nye, and…
FINDING MY OWN WAY With Jesus By My Side Isaiah: 43:18-19 Forget the former things; do not dwell on the past (Thank you, Lord). See I am doing a new thing! Now it springs up. Do you not perceive it? I am making a way in the desert and streams in the wasteland. Everyone has a story. My one friend has a daughter who is just beginning middle school. The teenage drama is about to begin. I think back to the little, immature girl, I once was. Then God began to take me on a journey. As my…
IT’S SIMPLE. Lord Jesus, Live In Me. Transform My Life. Isaiah: I greatly rejoice in the Lord. My soul shall be joyful in my God. He has clothed me with garments of salvation. He has covered me with righteousness as a bridegroom decks himself with ornaments, and as a bride adorns herself with jewels. The man was searching. For what exactly, he wasn’t sure. With a poor choice in marriage, the princess left before their first anniversary. Even though they lived together for 4 years, she bolted after the first sign of real difficulty. The man struggled. He…
PURGATORY MY VERSION IS PERFECT:LOL! PERKATORY:The Anguished, Prolonged Period Spent Waiting For A Fresh Pot Of Coffee To Be Ready. GUESSWHAT???? I don’t have a scripture!!! Why, because it’s not in the Bible. Twelve Years of Catholic School preached it so much that I wanted to SCREAM!!!!! With my OCD, I worried for years that I’d have to go through more punishment after life’s sufferings. Even after I went to Confession at least once a year, there was no peace. UNTIL I GOT IT! My God is not an accuser. He supped with sinners…
CONSIDER IT A GIFT? YEAH RIGHT! I Had To Put On My Big Girl Panties. James1:2 Consider it a gift, friends, when tests and challenges come to you from all sides. It was one of those days. Nothing traumatic….just ONE BIG MESS! I was just beginning to make preparations for my part-time job as a PAX Partner in Union Co. Schools. I was to meet with a Co-worker at the office to prep at 1:00p.m. I had already changed our meeting time once, since I was to pick my sister up at the airport…
For unto us is born this day, in the city of David, a saviour, who is Christ the Lord….. What does God look like? The bible teaches us that man was created in His image. The bible also teaches us that Jesus is God. So obviously, He looks like His Father! I challenge you to think past that; look at a newborn baby, a homeless person, an abused child, a victim of abuse, a victim of war, and so on. These are all faces of God! We like to think of Him in beautiful things, but He is in…
SO IT SHALL BE WRITTEN….SO IT SHALL BE DONE Yul Brynner’s Quote in The Ten Commandments. The Bible: The Map of Our Future Jeremiah 33:3 Call to Me and I will answer you, and show you great and mighty things which you do not know. That’s what the Word of God does. He does show me great and mighty things: *When I spend time with just Him. * He gives me insight and wisdom. *He teaches me about the past, present, and about what is to come. Quite often He’ll freak me out with the following…
DWELL IN A SAFE PASTURE. I Don’t Own My Extended Family’s Problems… GOD DOES! Psalm37: 3-4 Trust in The Lord and do good. Dwell in the land and enjoy safe pasture. Delight yourself in The Lord and He will give you the desires of your heart. God has created me to be a mentor..a teacher…a fixer of problems…. A cheer leader for those not knowing where to turn. LOLO!! However, there is a fine line between mentoring anWe d sticking my nose in where it doesn’t belong. There’s some issues in my extended…
DRIVE THE TRACTOR! PLOUGH THROUGH IT! You’ll Come Out Stronger On The Other Side. Psalm 112:7 He will have no fear of bad news. His heart is steadfast trusting in the Lord. This scripture sounds good doesn’t it? It’s great to say, ”I’ve been through a lot. I’m a survivor. The suffering defined me and I’m a strong woman.” It’s all true. I am a very strong woman. However, I still have a lot of fields to plough. My husband and I both have grown a lot together in 46 years. Here…
WATCH GOD WORK HIS MIRACLES. America On The Edge Oh Israel…I will Bless Those who Bless You….I will Curse Those who Curse You! I believe in the Covenant that God has made with Israel. For those of you who follow me, you already know that I am a conservative Christian. God Bless Our President! The above scripture says it all! Due to the fact that our President moved the American Embassy to Jerusalem, watch how Our God fulfills prophecy. Watch in great expectation for America to be blessed. The day the Embassy was opened, Pastor Jeffers stated the…
