(Recommended reading:  1 Corinthians 13) Is anyone else a record keeper?  I must confess that I’m probably a bit over-the-top when it comes to record keeping.  These days, there is so much that can be kept online that’s easy to access at any time.  But that’s not good enough for me.  I still tend to … Continue reading Record Keeping →

I mentioned a couple of weeks ago about the devotional book my church has been reading.  Another day the title of the reading was The Holy Spirit Works Supernaturally.  I’m going to talk about a few of the things he mentioned about showing how the people needed to just do their natural thing, or follow … Continue reading Take A Deep Breath And Stay Calm →

I believe I have mentioned before that for my daily devotion time, I use a Bible written in chronological order.  It has suggested readings for each day so that you can read through the Bible in a year; and, I’ve done that for many years.  It always amazes me how I can read the Bible … Continue reading Mrs. Job →

Recommended Reading:  Acts 16:16-34 Continuing from last week, I had another thought on the above passage. After Paul & Silas cast the evil spirit out of the young woman that kept following them around shouting, the people that were getting rich off the girl’s fortune telling got very upset since their cash cow was now … Continue reading Which Way Do You Sway? →

Recommended Reading:  Acts 16:16-34 For several days this week my daily Bible reading that goes along with my devotional for the day has been coming from the above passage.  There are several points in this passage that have caused me to pause and think more deeply as I’ve read it.  The one I want to … Continue reading Detecting The Errors →
