Distractions from the Truths of Faith

I had a dream last night…I was invited to a small church. I was not planning to speak, I was simply attending. I had to be properly dressed with a white shirt buttoned up to my neck like all the others. I remember feeling uncomfortable. The pastor and his son came in. The son was… Read more »

True Hope

Fear is healthy, panic is deadly and removes hope. Today there are so many people who have no hope. They think that the world, as they know it, is falling apart. They are fearful that we will go back to a time when there was a different type of hope. The hope of the past… Read more »

God’s Silence

2 Chronicles 32:31 “God withdrew from Hezekiah in order to test him and to see what was really in his heart.” Pride was in Hezekiah’s heart according to 32:25. Sometimes when you feel that God is silent it just might be a time for you to see what is really in your heart: pride, unbelief,… Read more »

The American Standard

Today, when I look at the next generation of America’s future, the kind of people that will be leading America, I see one great fundamental flaw. These people that are of the “woke” society want to remove our foundational standard that made America great, that made America the most desired nation of people all over… Read more »

Freedom for the Next Generation

A while back I had lunch with my grandson and enjoyed it immensely. I asked him to do some research about the time of the 60s when I was his age, and to compare what is different from the 60’s to what is taking place today. The first item we talked about was Woodstock. He… Read more »

They refuse to speak the truth… Read more »

Now That I’m Old

Now that I am old there is one thing I can say with confidence, that when I look back in my life I can see the hand of God. He has protected, provided, and given me the desires of my heart. THANK YOU LORD! Psalm 108:13 With God’s help we will do mighty things. Exodus… Read more »

The Blood of our SAVIOR!

I’ve asked God why ‘animal sacrifices’ for covering man’s sin back then, and then why His ‘Son’s sacrifice.’ Why blood? How does “blood” cover sin so that the Father’s wrath on man’s sin-nature is held off? This morning the thought came that it’s all about LOVE. God is love: Father, Son and Holy Spirit. Then… Read more »

Struggles Burdens Hope

This morning I was talking to my Father God, and I asked Him, what if Jesus had given up and asked You to save him from anymore sorrow and pain as He journeyed to His ‘physical’ end, would You have? What a question! Right? But I know that Jesus was also a human being like… Read more »

Eyes on JESUS!

Matthew 14:27-31 “Jesus spoke to them at once. ‘Don’t be afraid,’ he said. ‘Take courage. I am here!’ Then Peter called to him, L’ord, if it’s really you, tell me to come to you, walking on the water.’ ‘Yes, come,’ Jesus said. So Peter went over the side of the boat and walked on the… Read more »
