                    Being surrounded by a great cloud of witnesses (12:1) in a race that is marked out for us makes me think about Roger Bannister being cheered on by a stadium full of people when he became the first man to run a mile in under four minutes. Training,

                    THE CLOUDS MOVE-BUT SLOWLY (grief)
I heard her talking about it on the radio. A thoughtful young lady, to be sure. She was discussing her grief - the grief of losing her husband after only two years of marriage. He was a policeman. She knew the dangers he faced, but was proud that he truly cared

                    Dr. Henry Cloud and John Townsend teach that, ?as a rule, children don?t know what they are doing. They have little idea how to handle life so that it works right. That?s why God gave them parents ? to love them, give them structure and guide them into maturity. [From Focus on the Family website:

                    The passage from 1 Kings 18:41-46 offers profound lessons on persisting in prayer, as demonstrated by the prophet Elijah. Here are some key takeaways:
Expectant Faith: Elijah prayed with the expectation that God would answer. He told Ahab to prepare for rain even before there was any sign of it,

                    A psychologist once was interviewing a patient.  This patient was chronically depressed, hated life, blamed others for his own issues, and was obsessed with his own feelings of low self worth.  After some time of complaining about this and that, the patient finally drew a halting breath and allowed

                    A young man entered a beautiful cathedral which was so ornately decorated that the very sight of it could make the hardest of sinners cry in repentance.  He made his way down the aisle of the church and found it surprisingly empty except for a solitary worshipper bowing before a peculiar looking

                    There are two questions that will be ultimately asked on the Day of Judgment: “Did you love the Lord your God with all your heart, soul, and mind….Did you love your neighbor as yourself?”  Both of these cannot be accomplished if you do not know God’s Word.
