“A year from now, you will wish you had started today.” Don’t put off tomorrow what can be done today for there are no guarantees on what tomorrow will bring. People aren’t so much lazy as they are paralyzed by fear and the best medicine for fear is faith put into action. Whatever you are…

Merry Christmas…one day at a time
John 3:16-17, “For God loved the world so much that he gave his one and only Son, so that everyone who believes in him will not perish but have eternal life. God sent his Son into the world not to judge the world, but to save the world through him.” Wishing all of my blog…

So I am on my way home from work Wednesday evening and my wife has notified me “I’m on my own” as far as dinner goes. Knowing I need to get some gift certificates for a friend’s Christmas present, I figured it would be time-effective to sit at the bar of my friend’s favorite restaurant,…

Proverbs 12 is one of the shorter Proverbs but it contains a powerful recipe for success. Below is a stream of “success” virtues laid forth for us from Proverbs…
All Means All
Jeremiah 17:5-8, This is what the Lord says: “Cursed are those who put their trust in mere humans, who rely on human strength and turn their hearts away from the Lord. They are like stunted shrubs in the desert, with no hope for the future. They will live in the barren wilderness, in an uninhabited…
Leading is Leading
2 Timothy 2:15, “Do your best to present yourself to God as one approved, a workman who does not need to be ashamed and who correctly handles the word of truth.” (NIV) I came across the following recorded from the Chinese founder of Taoism, Lao Tzu. What amazes me is he had these beliefs about…
“It”
Acts 1:8, “But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes on you; and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth.” (NIV) Last night we had our small church group over for dinner. After dinner we began to discuss “Christmas is…
