  • Rebels, Saved By Grace

    Rebels, Saved By Grace

    “He’s a rebel and he’ll never ever be any good. He’s a rebel ‘cause he never ever does what he should.” [Songwriter: Gene Pitney.] [He’s a Rebel lyric, copyright Kanjian Music, Royalty Network, Warner Chappell Music, Inc.] How many of you sung that as you read it? I think you have to be a certain…

  • Jealousy, How Does it Start?

    Jealousy, How Does it Start?

    Jealousy is not an emotion we speak of very often. However, we all have, at one time or another, (I’m being generous) been jealous. There are times when we simply state to someone, “I’m so jealous.” This really means that we’re happy for them. We’re talking about true jealousy in this post which can be…

  • What You Can Learn At Disney World – Part 1

    What You Can Learn At Disney World – Part 1

    I have just returned from the trip of a lifetime made possible by the women of Cornerstone Baptist Church. As I prepared for retirement, the women were pooling their money to send me, cost free to, Disneyworld. It was a surprise that still overwhelms me. I didn’t even have to drive. My friend, Kim, did…

  • On Track

    On Track

    Have you ever thought about a train and how it stays on the track? The wheels have a flange on the bottom that looks like an L. This is what hooks to the inside of the track. Does the train ever derail? Yes, it does. There are a few reasons for this. It could be…

  • I’ve Fallen and I’ve Gotten Up!

    I’ve Fallen and I’ve Gotten Up!

    Embarrassment is so much a part of our thinking, isn’t it?  We want others to think the best of us and certainly don’t want them to see us do something stupid!  However, there are times in our lives when we do things by accident that still cause us embarrassment.  Last night was that night for…

    The Spiritual Battle: Suffering and Satan’s Devices – Part 1

    Suffering is part of the life of everyone who breathes on this earth.  It doesn’t matter whether you are a believer or not; we all suffer.  Our suffering can be in the areas of relationships, health, sin, or the results of a natural disaster.  We can suffer emotionally, physically, mentally, and spiritually. The suffering we…

  • God is in the Unknown

    God is in the Unknown

    My ducks need to be in a row.  I have a friend who says the same thing as I do.  We don’t like it when one of our little ducks veer off to the right or left.  The ducks, of course, represent our plans.  We plan and want it to go the way we want…

  • Everyday Life and God’s Presence

    Everyday Life and God’s Presence

    It’s just another day with all the ups and downs of life.  As you move through the day, there are so many times you wonder if God is really with you.  Sure, you’ve said you believe he’s always there, but do you?  When the utility sink is overflowing with water onto the basement floor because…

  • Good News or Bad News…All About Perception

    Good News or Bad News…All About Perception

    In this world of social media, news travels fast.  We no longer have to wait until we can make a long distance call or write a letter that will take days to get to our family members.  It’s fun to be able to share the birth of a baby or wedding pictures immediately with everyone…
