The Fullness of Time

1666) If you want to find out what time it is, there are a plethora of resources. You can, of course, check your smart watches, your phone, the clocks in your cars, stoves, electronics and more. It seems like time is right in our faces. Time has also changed. If you need to contact someone,

The Mystery Of Prayer

1666) I have a confession to make and that is, I find the subject of prayer confusing. Why? Let me see if I can explain. I know there are verses throughout the Bible that admonish us to pray, 1Thessalonians 5:17, for example. (Pray without ceasing.) I know most of these verses by heart, but what

Backseat Drivers

1665) I don’t think I know of anyone who enjoys having a backseat driver. You know, the person who tries to tell you, sometimes assertively, how you’re supposed to be driving? I know. I hear you grinding your teeth. Has it ever occurred to you you might be called by God to be a backseat

Proud or Horrified

1664) There have been some school years when I would jump at the opportunity to take a class on a field trip. Other years, it would be the last thing I would do. You see, I don’t want to take my class somewhere if they don’t know how to behave. It reflects badly on them,

These Days

1661) It’s interesting how I can wake up one day and feel a slump when nothing has yet caused me to feel this way. Other days, I might wake up, ready and excited about what may happen. When I wake up feeling one way or the other, it’s easy to get “sucked” into feeling and

Is God Safe?

1659) One of the deepest needs I have is to feel safe. Notice I said “feel” safe. I was particular with my words here because I know there are many things that give me the feeling of safety when circumstances really aren’t. For example, every night we lock our doors. This makes me feel safe

The Great Giveaway

1658) When I was a child, I won a coloring contest at the local 7 Eleven. I won 25 free Slurpees. For me, that was a prize of great value. Now, there are contests, raffles and giveaways everywhere, though I don’t find I have much luck with them. However, if we just participate, we can

Dignity and Respect

1657) Throughout the years, many have stated their current generation lacks dignity and respect. The 60s and 70s, for example, had continual strife. Watching news clips from these years seems to parallel the societal behavior of many today. When I observe these things, I sometimes sit back and wonder where dignity and respect have gone.
