• this smacked

  me today from God’s word….. “But I do not account my life of any value nor as precious to myself, if only I may finish my course and the ministry that I received from the Lord Jesus, to testify to the gospel of the grace of God.” Acts 20:24

• loved,… and thankful

  I love the freshness of this:-  “Thank you for your love, thank you for your faithfulness.” Psalm 138:2, The Message We give more applause to a team playing a 90-minute-kick-about than to the maker of creation. We have more hopes in lanky-lumpy footballers than we do to the God who made us! We sing more songs in raw-curious-national-jingoistic-pride than to Jesus Christ who saved us . . .!! Though we may not act like our Father, there is no greater [...]

• what love….says?

  These words, from 1 Peter 4:8, fairly cover a blanket of life’s stuff ! “Love covers a multitude of sins.” Have you ever heard anyone gossip about someone you know? . . . What do you have to say? or want to say,…. or scream inside!? Here is what love says: Love says nothing. Love stays silent. “Love covers a multitude of sins.” Love doesn’t expose. It doesn’t gossip. If love says anything, love speaks words of defense. Words of [...]

• early morning…..

  As I headed out early this morning, it was so wonderfully still and bright. I watched a bird chirp, dive and dig into the little soil around a tree sapling, grab a worm, and take off. I swear, I think he smiled (!!) The early bird got the worm. It reminded me of a scripture from earlier in the weekend: I will awaken the dawn with my song (Ps 108:2) The longer I live, the more I believe that. The [...]
