What Is A Day


“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? Have you ever watched the news when they show the traffic report of a large city from a helicopter—all the cars speeding along on the highways diverting off on feeders and exits going north, south, east, and west and doing eighty miles an hour—looking like millions of busy little ants. Busy, busy, busy chattering on our cell phones, doing what we think is vitally important—trying to make the most of our day.

Wait a second what’s wrong with this picture? Are we truly making the most of our day(s)? I hope we are. If we are starting our day with a prayer acknowledging God’s plan for our day, and during the day we stop every once in a while to thank Him for all He has given us. If at the end of the day we get down on our knees and thank Him for our jobs, our spouses, our children, or friends, the homes we live in, our financial resources, our health, our nation, our leaders. If every chance we get during the day we pray for Jerusalem, and His peace in the world. 

What is truly, no vitally, important about our day is that we first honor our LORD, Jesus Christ thanking Him for our salvation; acknowledging that without Him our day would no doubt be hell. Thank you Jesus for saving our day!

I pray you have a blessed day today!

God never changes who He is

The popular cry of the people here in America today is for “change.” Yet in some parts of the world there are those who use all means, including terrorism to resist it. There are some people who are determined to leave ancient traditions, and often times, corruptible governments just as they are, and have been for hundreds of thousands of years. Many of these nations do not recognize God. God is always the same; today, tomorrow, and forever. He never changes; this knowledge about Him enables us to have total reliability in Him. His character is as follows: God is omnipotent . All power is His, and nothing is beyond His control. He enforces His perfect will. He is unstoppable by any force in heaven or on earth! God is omnipresent. He is everywhere imaginable and unimaginable all at the same time! No person or place is beyond His presence. Space and time are before Him always. He determines everything for all places and all persons. God is omniscient. All that is happening to all ...

Over the past few years I have been inspired by the Holy Spirit to write what He has given me; many times I was awakened in the middle of the night to write them down. I hope you will take look at these brief messages which can be found in the "sidebar" of this blog under the heading of "BLOG ARCHIVE." There may be something in these that personally speaks to you. I pray there is. Thanks for reading my blog and may God richly bless you.

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...
