One of my wife's great joys is that when she asks me to do something, I say, "I will." It is music to her ears. Honestly, I don't always respond that way. It is more like, "Ok honey, I'll get around to it." When I finally do, she is happy. I thank God for my wife. She is a tremendous blessing. We …
Have We Missed The Parade?
Everyone loves a parade? Right. I loved attending the Fourth of July parade in our town as a child. I guess I didn't understand what it meant—our independence from a foreign entity. None the less I enjoyed the sights and sounds and the candy from the firemen. Of course, the fireworks at night were …
The Price of Admission
Life is full of entering places and leaving. We are constantly going through open doors, leaving one room and entering another. Sometimes we must buy a ticket to enter a ballgame or a concert. We pay the price of admission to go in and enjoy what we paid for. We need passwords and usernames to …
Turning Messes into Miracles

Watch Out For The Cheats
In the Gospel of John Jesus shares about the thief threatening the sheep. John 10:10 (NKJV)-0 The thief does not come except to steal, and to kill, and to destroy. I have come that they may have life, and that they may have it more abundantly. This is his agenda, his purpose against God's people …

Light And Darkness
Isaiah 60:1-2 (AMP)-1 ARISE [from the depression and prostration in which circumstances have kept you—rise to a new life]! Shine (be radiant with the glory of the Lord), for your light has come, and the glory of the Lord has risen upon you! 2 For behold, darkness shall cover the earth, …
Help My Unbelief
I want to talk about unbelief today. It is something we all deal with from time to time. We need to recognize unbelief and be aggressive in dealing with it. It pulls against the faith that God has given us. It pulls us in the opposite direction. We spend a lot of time trying to get more faith when …
Why I Still Believe In Divine Healing
It has been two years since I was in the Hospital for sixteen days. I want to give God all the glory for bringing myself and my wife through a difficult time. (See the blog"My Story").

It’s Time To Tense Up!
Before you say what kind of title is that? Don't get too tense about it. I'm not talking about getting anxious or fretful. What I would like to share with you is that tenses matter when it comes to reading the Bible, the Word of God. What has God done for us already in the past, what will He do in …
