Priority-One for Today

“With the LORD a day is like a thousand years, and a thousand years are like a day” (2 Peter 3:8).

So, what’s our big hurry? We’ve all seen the morning news on TV when they show the traffic report for commuters – all the cars speeding along, diverting off on feeders, exiting going north, south, east and west doing 75-80 mph – looking like millions of busy little ants. Busy, busy, busy chattering away on their cell phones, doing what they believe is vitally important – making the most of their day.

Wait a second, what’s wrong with this picture? Are we truly making the most of our day(s)? Hopefully, we are. We are if start our day with a prayer acknowledging God’s plan for our day, and during our day, we stop every once in a while to thank Him for all He has done for us – if at the end of our day we thank Him for our jobs, our spouses, our children, our friends, the homes we live in, our financial resources, our health, our nation and our leaders we are. If every chance we get during our busy day we pray for Jerusalem and peace in the world we are making an attempt to make the most of our day.

I believe what is truly important about how we make the most of our day is we first honor our LORD Jesus Christ thanking Him for our salvation; acknowledging that without Him our day would no doubt be very difficult if not disastrous! Thank you Jesus for saving my day!

Today, be blessed my friend.

Our Walk With God

“Listen, my son, accept what I say, and the years of your life will be many. I guide you in the way of wisdom and lead you along straight paths. When you walk, your steps will not be hampered, when you run, you will not stumble” (Proverbs 4:10-12). Our lives are built upon our first step, and   then proceed step after step after step thereafter. As infants we learn to crawl, then stand and eventually to walk to the waiting hands of our proud fathers and mothers. Our walking skills can develop into running skills; some of us will go on to run races, some will even run long distance marathons, but it all begins first with our desire to walk. The Lord tells us to listen to what He says to us through His Holy Spirit and the years of our lives will be many; as we go through life, our steps will not be hampered; when we hurry through our impossible daily schedules and race through our lives, we will not stumble.   All successful runners have a professional trainer, our trainer is ...

God’s Family

He provides resources for the family “For You, Lord, are good, and ready to forgive, and abundant in mercy to all those whom call upon You” (Psalm 86:5). God’s plan for marriage and the family, in the Bible, is intended to be ideal, full of prosperity for every member. Would you say this describes your family? Maybe, maybe not, however, even if your family has missed His mark His Word deals with life realistically. Many of us experience some aspect of failure or serious disappointment with the way our family is living. Many families today are divided by divorce or living as single-parent family units. God alone can provide the needed resources and the loving care vital for the needs of these families who are dealing with life. If you are having trouble in your family turn to Jesus. He is your primary resource for forgiveness and your hope for renewal (Ephesians 1:7).   He forgives no matter if the failure is yours or it is one of those times when someone else fails yo...

GLORIOUS!

"Shout with joy to God, all the earth! Sing the glory of His name; make His praise glorious" (Psalm 66:1,2)! Hallelujah! Praise to our King! See how glorious He is! He is our awesome God! He is our Healer, our Counselor, our Morning Star, our heavenly Father, our Savior and our Redeemer. He is our Lamb of God, He is our Maker, our Sacrifice, our Bridegroom, our Living Water, our Helper, He is our Blessing, our Bread of Life, our Sweet, Sweet Song, He is Abba Father...let us make His praise glorious! He is Yahweh-Jehovah, Jehovah-Elohim, Jehovah-Elyon, El Shaddai, Jehovah-Jireh, He is Jehovah-Tsidqenu, Jehovah- Shamah, and He is Jehovah-Tsebaoth...let us make His praise glorious! What's in a name, and why would we sing the glory of God's name(s)? Often a name provides an important clue to the nature of a person. This is definitely true of God. The Bible refers to God by many different names, each one referring to some aspect of God's character or His relation...
