     | 2,719 views

    For example: (1) SOMETIMES WE HAVE TO MAKE PROFESSIONAL DECISIONS Consider the many decisions an umpire has to make calling “balls” or “strikes” in a baseball game.

    Every year folks make preparations to fill out their tax returns. It is something that we are forced to do, even though many times we disagree with how our tax money is being spent.

    Illus: I heard about a letter that was sent to a taxpayer from the IRS: "I'm afraid we can't allow you to deduct last year's tax as a bad investment." Illus: Much has been said about paying taxes: • April is always a difficult month for Americans. Even if your ship comes ...read more

    When Samuel grew old, and Israel looked around and saw other nations had kings, they decided they wanted one also.

    Looking around and wanting something that someone else has can get us into lots of trouble. Illus: A man saw other men with their good looking wives, and decided he wanted a wife. One day, he walked into the restaurant with a full-grown ostrich behind him, and as he sat there, the waitress came ...read more

    Two Kinds Of Appearances

    Illus: During the Oscars in Hollywood in 2004, the actors and actresses tried to give the impression that they cared about poverty.

The mother said, “Your friend has been very kind.” “Yes,” said the child, “She gave me more; but I gave some away.” When her mother asked who she gave ...read more

    The book of Proverbs is Principles from Heaven for Life on Earth. And God gives us some amazing counsel inside the pages of Proverbs on how to handle our money. Money is such a powerful issue in our lives that we must address it.

    On January 19, 1901, few knew the future of the Texas economy was about to experience a seismic shift forward. In a matter of days, the oil geyser in little Beaumont, Texas, called Spindletop, produced more oil than the rest of the world’s oil wells – combined.

    Keep On Singing

    Contributed by Melvin Maughmer, Jr. on Jul 4, 2021
    based on 2 ratings
     | 11,418 views

    People all over the world love to sing. It’s a mood lifter & anti-depressant with no side effects. Singing isn’t an option in Scripture. It’s a command. When we sing, we declare war against our adversary.

    “Keep on Singing.” By Bishop Melvin L. Maughmer, Jr. OPENING:- If I can take us on a trip down memory lane for a minute and go back to the Disney Cartoon Movie Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs there is a famous song that says “Whistle While You Work” the Lyrics are - Just whistle while you work And ...read more

    True satisfaction comes from delighting in God, who lovingly reshapes and fulfills our desires as we trust and surrender our hearts to Him.

    Some of us walked in today with aching hearts, carrying names and needs that feel too heavy for our hands—children we love, futures we can’t forecast, bills that won’t budge, memories that still sting. Others arrived with a quiet hope, a whisper that maybe, just maybe, God has something tender and ...read more

     | 60 views

    God sees and values our hidden faithfulness, works through our weakness, and calls us to trust His authority and power through prayerful obedience.

    Some of us know the quiet corners of life—the cubicle where no one notices, the kitchen where you serve with a smile, the classroom where faith is a whisper. You wonder, Does God see me here? Does this count? Friend, the Father’s eyes are not dim. He sees the sparrow’s flight and your faithful ...read more

    God invites us to find true safety, peace, and courage by dwelling in His presence and trusting His faithful protection amid life’s storms.

    Some of us came in today with hands full and hearts heavy. Bills on the counter, headlines on the phone, questions in the dark. Life can feel like a storm that lingers—raindrops of worry, winds of weariness. And yet, over every squall, our Father holds out an umbrella that doesn’t falter: His ...read more

    God uses ordinary people’s courage and compassion to lift others from life’s pits, reminding us to act rightly and help those in need now.

    Some days feel like pits, don’t they? Not just potholes in the road, but deep, echoing cisterns of disappointment, decisions, and delays. You pray and the sky seems quiet. You plan and the ground gives way. You stand in the middle of a week that you never wanted and wonder, How do I get out of ...read more

     | 90 views

    Trusting God’s presence and help gives us courage and steadiness, even when life feels overwhelming and uncertain, because faith refuses to panic.

    Some of us walked in today with hearts that feel waterlogged. Headlines pound like hail on a tin roof. Bills stack up like sandbags at the door. A diagnosis, a disappointment, a detour you didn’t see coming—each one another inch on the flood gauge of the soul. You wonder, “How high will this go? ...read more
