“Count your blessings, name them one by one, and it will surprise you what the Lord has done.” That is a song we’ve sung often, but not very often do we sit down and actually, one by one enumerate God’s particular blessings. Well, I have done so, but the list I came up with isContinue reading “Count Your Blessings”

I Am Thankful for…
Thanksgiving is straight ahead. It is time to prepare our hearts, our heads and our homes for another special day of giving of thanks to our heavenly Father for His abundant goodness to us now and always. Do you have a list of praises assembled? One need not labor long in writing down an itemizedContinue reading “I Am Thankful for…”
What’s The ONE THING You Do?
“…But this one thing I do…I press toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus.” (Phil.3:13) Many will never succeed in life at what they do because their attitude is not like Paul’s who with single-heartedness said, “This one thing I do….” Many will not succeed because theyContinue reading “What’s The ONE THING You Do?”
How To Be Happy Though Human
On September 14, 1982, the “story-book life” of Princess Grace Kelly, wife of Prince Rainier III of Monaco, came to a sudden, tragic end. On the day following her death, The Washington Post described Princess Grace as follows: “Absolutely beautiful; immaculate, perfectly groomed; a first-generation American beauty.” Most women so described, married to a prince,Continue reading “How To Be Happy Though Human”
Christian Fellowship—Vanishing Virtue
“One of the best ways to emasculate our faith is to cut ourselves off from other Christians.” Those words are a commentary on the 20th/21st century churches of our Lord Jesus Christ. The Church that Jesus promised to build, begun on the Day of Pentecost as recorded Acts 2, was birthed in “doctrine and fellowship,Continue reading “Christian Fellowship—Vanishing Virtue”
An Evil Heart of Unbelief
Drop out, cop out Christianity is an accurate way of describing late-20th century and early 21st century mainstream Christendom.

Last Stop, Next Station
In Plato’s Republic, that ancient philosopher had a dream of a utopian society in which everyone would be useful, everything would be controlled, and “heaven on earth” would rule. Dreamers have, since the time of Plato, tried to revive his ancient paradise. The political system known as “communism” started out as the dream of anContinue reading “Last Stop, Next Station”
Of Angels, Dogs, and Hogs
The three nouns comprising this post’s title are a rather unique combination of words—to be sure! One might well ask if they have any connection to each other whatsoever. The answer to the question would be, “Yes!” Each is mentioned in one chapter of God’s Word. Follow along with me as we examine II Peter,Continue reading “Of Angels, Dogs, and Hogs”
Holy Heartburn
It was on the afternoon of the day that the Lord Jesus Christ put His foot upon the Serpent’s head, having been raised from death and from the grave—victorious over Death, Hell, and the Devil. Two followers of Jesus, one named Cleopas and the other unnamed (we’ll call him Zeke) were walking from Jerusalem toContinue reading “Holy Heartburn”
