     | 3,779 views

    A Christmas message. Most people have no problem getting up for Christmas but what about the day after? This message is based on Luke 2:20 from what I see as the shepherds return to "normal" after God has broken into their lives.

    "It's A Wonder-filled Life" Luke 2:20 "Then the shepherds returned, glorifying and praising God for all the things that they had heard and seen, as it was told them." Intro: Frank Capra's "It's a Wonderful Life" is, by far, my all time favorite Christmas movie. George Bailey finds out that even ...read more

    God's judgments are always tempered with mercy.

    THE RESTORATION. Micah 4:6-13. As Micah continues his words of encouragement to the remnant of Israel, he uses the expression “In that day” (Micah 4:6) instead of, ‘In the last days’ (Micah 4:1). This is possibly nothing more than literary variation. The short-term fulfilment of the promise in ...read more

    Shepherds were known for their devotion to the sheep in their care. This parable illustrates Jesus's love for us as the shepherd of our souls who laid down His life for us. His sheep follow Him because they know His voice.

    John 10:1 - 10:  “Very truly, I tell you, anyone who does not enter the sheepfold by the gate but climbs in by another way is a thief and a bandit. 2 The one who enters by the gate is the shepherd of the sheep. 3 The gatekeeper opens the gate for him, and the sheep hear his ...read more

    A Message on Psalm 23

    As I continue studying Psalm 23 I discovered the shepherd employs various means to provide water for his sheep. He may use cisterns, wells or troughs. The shepherd may also lead the sheep beside "still waters" or shall I say to "stilled waters." Because the waters may be raging, he causes them to ...read more

    This is NOT the voice of the Shepherd, "I told you so," "You're just like your mother!" "Can't you do anything right?"

    Easter 4A Our Responsorial Psalm today from Psalm 23 is very personal. There are no references to "we" or "us" or "they," but only "my" and "me" and "I" and "You." This is David's testimony, his personal experience with God. “He guides me in right paths,” the second part says. In our Gospel we ...read more
