Thought of the Day–4/4/18

Thought of the Day—Many times when we are facing a challenge, the biggest obstacle isn’t in front of us, but deep inside.  Like evil twins, fear and doubt can cloud our judgment and cause us to trip up instead of stepping out in faith and putting our trust solely in the hands of the One who created us in the first place.  So whatever it may be, give it to God and just back away…yeah, that means YOU…no fingering.  Allow God to do what He does best; lighten the load, bear the burden, and liberally apply grace where and when it’s needed most.

Thought of the Day–4/2/18

Thought of the Day—A foolish man thinks he is lord and master, sitting on his throne.  However, the wise man knows that God is Lord and Master sitting on His mighty throne in the heavenly realms and OUR throne only consists of white porcelain and requires intervals of paper replacement…just a moment of clarity and humility in case there was any confusion…

Thought of the Day 4/1/18–It’s Not About the Bunny

Bunnies

It’s not about the bunny or the patent leather shoes

It is not about the colored eggs or mama’s brand new do,

It is not about the spectacle of baskets with candy heaping full

It is about the selfless love God has for me and you.

***

For God so loved the world that He gave his only son

To take our place, to take our shame, to die for everyone,

And on that first Easter morn when God raised Christ from his tomb

Hope also arose for all mankind, that our destiny would not be doomed.

***

So as you celebrate Easter, celebrate also the empty cross

And praise the name of Jesus Christ without whom we would all be lost,

For it’s not about the bunny but yet a sense of life renewed

Eternal life for us is possible because of the empty tomb.

Thought of the Day–3/31/18

Thought of the Day—Politically speaking, I think we are all reaching into the same giant can of mixed nuts.  Of course, there are several different varieties of nuts in the can and we all have our own preferences, but at the end of the day they are all the same …just plain old nuts…

Thought of the Day–3/30/18

Thought of the Day—There resides in each of us a mystery.  It begins with an invisible tie that binds together the hearts of family.  Some members are bonded by blood while others are bonded by adoption, either by one of a legal means, marriage or other circumstances but each just as important and vital as the others; for their branches are grafted into the main family tree and the same lifeblood of family runs through each branch.  And even though there may be internal struggles within the family at times, when adversity comes that same love deepens, the impenetrable bond broadens and together becomes a formidable shield of defense and protection against its’ foe.  Today, let us not knit pick and illuminate our differences but instead, celebrate our uniqueness as part of the unwavering inclusion of family…

Thought of the Day–3/28/18

Thought of the Day—Why is it that we rush to immunize our children from diseases but leave them completely exposed to the negative influences of this world.  We, as adults, are the caretakers and gatekeepers of these young minds and we WILL be held accountable for corrupting them…
