God Says . . .
Posted in Uncategorized on April 17, 2012 | Leave a Comment »
What is on your mind today? What is weighing heavy on your heart? Maybe it is trouble at work. God says, “I’m here – remember I gave you that job.” Maybe it is a strained marriage. God says, ” I called you into this relationship – hold strong.” Maybe it is uncertainty about the future. [...]
Keeping a Supply of Milk in the Fridge

When I went to bed last night there was a half gallon of milk in the refrigerator. When I got up this morning, there was an empty milk jug on the counter. Sometime between midnight and 7 am, that milk disappeared. This is the joy of having three teenage boys at home. It wouldn’t be [...]

Shane Hipps, in his book, Flickering Pixels, deals with the role of the heart in spirituality.

I did a lot of driving yesterday, about 8 hours in the car. But somewhere between Waco and Levelland I saw a billboard that said, “Eternity is a long time.” As I drove, I thought a lot about that statement. Of course, on the surface it is somewhat comical in the sense that, of course [...]
Email-a-Prayer
Posted in Uncategorized on September 2, 2009 | Leave a Comment »
Today I woke up with a conviction. No, I am not headed to jail – a different kind of conviction. As Christians we are always quick to say, “I’ll be praying for you” when we listen to the needs of others. But how often do we follow through? Prayer is such an important part of [...]
