I woke up at 3 a.m. thinking about another friend who had lost a loved one to CoVid. This virus is no respecter of bank accounts. You can’t buy yourself immunity from it. Your position, your zip code, your resume, or your political party, can’t keep you from catching it. You may run ten milesContinue reading “3 a.m. thoughts”

He walked in on her with another man.
I sat our piping hot soup on the table last night and asked my man if there was anything new from the day. He rattled through some things and then says, “Oh yeah, pretty cool, I got to share with a guy at work how (his first wife) cheated on me. I told him IContinue reading “He walked in on her with another man.”
Who do you celebrate?
The angel said to the shepherds, “Fear not, for I bring you good news of great joy that will be for all the people.” There is good news of great joy because the Savior was born. Yet so many feel no joy. They remain unaffected by the familiarity of the Christmas story. So many, especiallyContinue reading “Who do you celebrate?”
peace.
Jesus is our peace. It’s sounds like such a calm, relaxing, silent night, kind of word. But to better understand we need to think of peace as in terms of war …war and peace.

If we say we follow Christ, it alsoContinue reading “One way… everything else is FAKE NEWS!”
He CHOSE this…
I have heard it said we should preach the gospel to ourselves everyday. For many, even those in the Church, the Cross is a thought mostly for Easter. But Jesus came for the Cross. He didn’t come for social justice.He wasn’t killed by racists, as some are saying these days. The Son of God cameContinue reading “He CHOSE this…”
Judas Heart
Judas betrayed Jesus. His name is forever linked with betrayal. He sold Jesus for thirty pieces of silver, and we’ve all shaken our heads that he could betray the Son of God for so very little. While I know Jesus was completely in control, came to die, and could have called down a legion ofContinue reading “Judas Heart”
Do you know the thing that makes for your peace?
Christ predicted the destruction of Jerusalem. He warned the Jewish people, but so many did not believe Him. He told them, when they saw the armies surrounding the city they should flee to the mountains (Luke 21:20) Those who believed Him to be the Messiah believed His words and fled; but those, who did notContinue reading “Do you know the thing that makes for your peace?”
