Towers

2407)  When I was young, I can remember hearing for the first time the phrase, don’t judge a book by its cover. I recall frowning in thought and concluding that I do judge a book this way. It made me question the validity and accuracy of this statement. When I go to the library or

What’s Next?

2405) I like things to be predictable in my life. I follow a schedule, and when this schedule changes or I’m in situations that are totally new to me; I get anxious. It really doesn’t matter if this new is better. It’s in times like this I try to remind myself of Psalm 16:11. Here

Majestic

2404) When you have a serious need, it’s wise to go to the one in charge. In a store, it would be the manager, but ultimately, it may mean you go straight to the owner; after all, they have the final say. In 1 Chronicles 29:11, David writes that God is majestic, meaning infinitely above

Victorious

2403) When the company that manufactures batteries came up with the marketing plan of the Energizer Bunny, they hit gold. Who isn’t familiar with the claim that its product goes on and on and on?

God is Great

2400) When I was reading through passages in the Old Testament, I came across 1 Chronicles 29:11. Reading it, I gasped because I was unfamiliar with a verse which holds so much spiritual truth. Yours, O Lord, is the greatness and the power and the glory and the victory and the majesty, for all that is

Presentation

2399) As a teacher, I learned early in my career that presentation is huge. If I were to say to my young scholars, I guess we ought to try this new thing and end with a sigh, they won’t buy into the idea. Instead, I could say, I have a fantastic idea for us to

Pep Rally

2398) I loved pep rallies when I taught high school. The energy and enthusiasm in a gym with 1200+ kids was palpable. It seemed that the athletes were charged as if hit by lightning bolts. The pep band played with huge decibels of sound. Those of us in the stands couldn’t wait to watch the

Perceived Safety

2397) Much safety we feel is really perceived. Yes, seatbelts are important for safety, but do they completely save? Just because you have a seatbelt on, does this mean nothing can hurt you? What about locks on your house? Yes, it’s important to lock up your house, but does this keep out a thief who
