Below is an article I received from my friend Dave Sather. I found it thought provoking and wanted to share it with you. Remember what we have is a gift given, from someone else providing our freedom, to God who gives us everything we need and more… Often when people ask me how I amContinue reading “Investing In Freedom”

You can’t do that…
Have you ever been told by someone that you can’t do something? What does that do to your understanding of your ability to do that function? Usually when people say you can’t do that we believe them. We are frozen in fear and do not even attempt the thing we were going to do becauseContinue reading “You can’t do that…”
Cry Out
O Lord, God of my salvation; I cry out day and night before you. Let my prayer come before you; incline your ear to my cry! For my soul is full of troubles, and my life draws near to Sheol. I am counted among those who go down to the pit; I am a manContinue reading “Cry Out”
12 years…
There is a lot going on today in the Gospel lessons for the fifth of Pentecost. We have Jesus and the disciples crossing over the sea again!

What you talkin bout Willis…
What you talkin bout Willis? Who remembers this? What was he saying really? I thought of this catch phrase today as I read the lesson from Luke appointed for today.

it is I…
ἐγώ εἰμι I remember when I learned the ἐγώ. (pronounced eg-o’). It was summer Greek or maybe before, I was an over achiever… All I could think of was Let go of my ego! But what does ἐγώ εἰμι mean? In our lesson from Mark 6:45-52 it is translated in the ESV as it is I. But does thisContinue reading “it is I…”
fear the Lord
Moses said to him, “As soon as I have gone out of the city, I will stretch out my hands to the LORD. The thunder will cease, and there will be no more hail, so that you may know that the earth is the LORD’s. But as for you and your servants, I know thatContinue reading “fear the Lord”
My New Primary Care Physician
Q: Doctor, I’ve heard that cardiovascular exercise can prolong life. Is this true? A: Heart only good for so many beats, and that it… Don’t waste on exercise. Everything wear out eventually. Speeding up heart not make you live longer; it like saying you extend life of car by driving faster. Want to live longer?Continue reading “My New Primary Care Physician”
