Good advice & lots of it 10/23/2011
Maybe God wants us to meet a few wrong people before meeting
the right one so that when we finally meet the right person,
we will know how to be grateful for that gift.
<br>
When the door of happiness closes, another opens, but often
times we look so long at the closed door that we don't
see the one which has been opened for us.

Having The Talk With Your Teens 12/29/2010
Having 'The Talk' With Your Teens Meg Wilson
If you are the parent of a and haven't yet talked
with him or her openly about God's amazing plan for
sexuality and the intimacy between a husband and wife,
I'm afraid the current culture may have spoken in your
place. In this age of ubiquitous sexual messages, I am surprised
by how many parents still treat the subject of sex as taboo.

Invitation to Christmas 7/13/2010
Not so very long ago,
A little boy came to me and said:
" How come you done not invite me over?
What does my old room upstairs look like?"
We have been remodeling
The old farmhouse
Where he once lived.
I said: " There have been some changes made
And it is not quite finished yet.
I hope you will like what you see
In your old upstairs ...

Special Sauce 6/21/2010
I was sitting at the drive-through window at McDonald's
this weekend (ok, I eat out a lot). I did the usual thing,
I drove up to the menu and ordered. I proceeded to the first
window and paid, then drove to the second window and waited
for the order. After sitting there for a few minutes, the
clerk slid back the window and asked, "Will you please
pull over to the side? your order is not ready." ...

Why Should I Help The Poor? 5/23/2010
Oh, the joys of those who are kind to the poor. The Lord rescues
them in times of trouble. The Lord protects them and keeps
them alive. He gives them prosperity and rescues them from
their enemies. The Lord nurses them when they are sick and
eases their pain and discomfort. Psalm 41:1-3 NLT
He will rescue the poor when they cry to him, he will help
the oppressed, who have no one to ...

angels.
And in this angelic host of the Almighty God in heaven, above
the super-powerful archangels, above the fiery seraphim,

Witnessing To Others 4/21/2009
Many of us are intimidated by the fact of trying to witness

a half!" You're never thirty-seven and a half

ARE YOU DECEIVED Part 3 7/15/2008
My final thoughts on being deceived are around another
set of feelings. How often do we say, “I feel like God…” Not
many of us hear an audible voice when God “speaks” to us.
Mostly it is a sense that this is something we are to do or
not do. This is where it is critically important to know
your shepherd’s voice. It is also of vital importance to

Your Character? 11/10/2007
Your character is what you really are, while your reputation
is merely what others think you are. No matter the storm,
when you are with God, there's always a rainbow waiting.
Leave gentle fingerprints on the soul of another for the
Angels to read. I don't want to get to the end of my life
and find that I lived just the length of it. I want to have lived the width of it as well.
