Take Your Own Advice

Given January 1, 2009
My wife and I had a good discussion this morning.  We talked about our aspirations, dreams, and goals and how they might align with God’s plans for us.  We concluded, which we both already knew, that God has a plan for us, (and everyone), and we needed to submit ourselves to […]

A Lesson On Worrying

Given December 19, 2009

We are in the middle of a giant snow storm here in Southwestern Virginia with no electricity for two days and everything that goes with that.  However, we have a gas stove which provides warmpth and a cooking option and we are making it OK.  I tend not to worry too much […]

That’s Crazy - The Exodus

Given August 2009

In chapter 12 of Exodus, we read of the night Israel left Egypt.  God gave Moses some very specific instructions to pass on to the people about the course of events which were about to happen, (verses 3-11).  Some of it sounded pretty crazy.

During morning devotions and prayer on this morning, I was praying for my pastor as I ususally do.  I asked God to give him favor in what he was doing in our church.  I believe God has a plan and purpose for each of us and we are to seek out what […]

Promises Of God - Part 3

Given August 2, 2008 

“I will supply all your need…” Philippians 4:19a

 

God promises to give us everything we need.  Do we have all we need?  Before answering, think about the difference between what you need and what you want.  When taken in that context, our needs are really pretty basic; food, shelter, clothing.  We all […]

Fear Not

Given January 6, 2009

“Fear not, believe only.”  Jesus spoke these words to the synagogue ruler Jairus when messengers brought news of his daughter’s death, Mark 5:36.  He’s saying the same thing to us now.  During this time of economic distress, many of us are in a position to be fearful; it’s hard to avoid.  Maybe […]
