Life is a fragile thing
Sometimes in life we think we understand or know what someone else is going through. Dr. Hyles would say, “Be kind to everyone, everyone is having a hard time.” You see what we see on the outside is not always what in on the inside. The best way to illustrate this is to tell you…

Words and Actions
I was reminded this week that we do not often say and do what we should. Words spoken and unspoken have their own message. A very famous Preacher would always say, “Be nice to everyone, everyone is have a tough time.” We do not know everything that is going on in someones life. One kind…

Are we Numbered?
Many times there are things in the Bible that I ask the question: How does this apply to me today? When I was reading the book of Numbers I was intrigued by this verse. Numbers 4: 49 “According to the commandment of the LORD they were numbered by the hand of Moses, every one according…

Count Your Blessings

I am all set
Acts 16:31-32, “And they said, Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved, and thy house. And they spake unto him the word of the Lord, and to all that were in his house.” People think because their Parents, Grandparents, and those down the line all went to Church that they are…

Accused
Many of us know the story of the Fiery Furnace and can tell the story. I found something really interesting today in my Bible reading. In the story the King makes a command that when you hear the music you bow down to the image. What I found interesting was verse 8 of chapter 3,…

Be Not Afraid
I started reading in Ezekiel this morning. In chapter two verse 6 &7 “And thou, son of man, be not afraid of them, neither be afraid of their words, though briers and thorns be with thee, and thou dost dwell among scorpions: be not afraid of their words, nor be dismayed at their looks, though…

Investments
Many people make investments for monetary gain. Setting up for the future. There are many avenues to do this. But there is a greater investment that has an endless value. The investment in others. As a child I had my parents who invested in my growth and welfare. They taught me the values of work…

Saying Goodbye
We went to Oklahoma and were able to see our Daughter’s. When it was time to say goodbye it was sad, but we knew it would only be for awhile. The reason we went to Oklahoma was my sister-in-law graduated to Heaven. Saying goodbye to her is also for just a little while. We are…
