GOD IS EVERY WHERE

THE SPIRITUAL ODD COUPLE
Often times we stand in awe of the fact that our Savior Jesus Christ was born into this sinful world and took on human flesh - born in a cattle stall! What a filthy place for God to be born! In the same way, then, shouldn’t we stand in awe at what the Holy Spirit

POEM: DON’T QUIT
When things go wrong as they sometime will,
when the road your trudging seems all up hill,
When funds are low and debts are high,
and you want to smile but you have to sigh,
When care is pressing you down a bit
rest if you must but please don’t quit.
Life is queer with it’s twist

The Carpet
True story, hard to believe, but true. We had friends at seminary who got a house sitting job back home in Ontario, Canada. It was a great gig, free housing for a whole summer. It was just like any other house sitting job except for one detail – the carpeting. They were instructed that,

I am drawn to realize that I must make room and give careful attention to the witness of the Scriptures. It is my attention to the Scriptures as the challenged, but undefeated Word of God that I will overcome the flood of doubts and opposition to my faith that will come in 2008. I need an anchor

Let me share an example from my own experience. I was privileged to be on the mission field of East Africa in 1963. While in Tanzania (then called Tanganyika) I was blessed to work alongside Bill Lewis, our Southern Baptist missionary to the Rungwe district near Mbeyu. Bill was one of the

The Tarnished Star
A half step slower than yesterday
a little pain won’t go away
not quite as strong
not near as high
a younger man has passed him by
the tarnished star.
He works so hard, he gives his all
but new stars rise while old stars fall
he was so bright, a brilliant light,
but now a

WHAT'S THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN A FATHER AND A DAD
A Father isn't a Dad because he has given you 'life'.
Or just because your Mother is his wife.
If you have a problem, a Father may not care.
A Dad will ask about your problem, and let you know he is there.
A Father thinks that respect is due him

Let’s continue now. (Read 28-30) Men, I have a question for you. When you are in pain, do you do something about it? When my back hurts terribly, I sometimes have to stop stacking wood or shoveling snow long enough to bend over and do some stretching and relaxing of tight muscle groups. Then I can

The story is told of a grandmother, a mother and a little boy--three generations--who went into a restaurant and sat down to order. The waitress took the grandmother’s order, the mother’s order, then turned to the little boy and said, "What would you like?" The mother immediately said, "Oh, I’ll

BREAD IN THE HAND
David used what he had--a sling. For the little boy at the feeding of the 5,000 it was five loaves and two fish. For Samson it was the jawbone of a donkey. God can use anything.

John W. Gardner, founding chairman of Common Cause, said it's a rare and high privilege to help people understand the difference they can make -- not only in their own lives, but also in the lives of others, simply by giving of themselves.
Gardner tells of a cheerful old man who asked the same
