Thoughts

Yesterday I did the “husbandry” thing to do and went to a craft show with my wife and one of our daughters. What I didn’t know is that this craft show filled the gymnasiums of two different schools and much of the hallway systems. And these were not small schools! I left them to wander…

Over the past four years I have visited numerous churches for their Sunday morning worship service. This morning I was the first time visitor at a church of around 110 people in attendance. We sang one old hymn to open the service and then, after about 25 minutes, we entered a time of contemporary praise…

Our churches are being attacked by terrorists and we are apathetic to the war. Unrecognized demonic attacks on our churches may be the biggest threat to God’s work in America and around the world. Our churches are weakened, crippled and sometimes destroyed by moral or ethical failures by pastors and church leaders. The present divisions…

Tuesday, August 28, 2007 The best time of life is the day that you are presently living. We often look so far into the future that we forget about today. Today is the day that you should do the things you have been putting off, the walk in the park, the visiting of old friends…

Sunday, May 18, 2008 Time, strange thing isn’t it. Many people try to control it with all kinds of organizational methods.

Monday, April 28, 2008 We have some serious concerns in our world today. Millions and millions of people around the world are now being placed into slavery. Yes, even in the United States millions and millions of families are facing financial collapse the kind not seen before in most of our lifetimes, economic slavery. Yes,…

December 28, 2007 As 2007 draws to a close, we are once again faced with the timeline of, as Tennessee Ernie Ford used to sing, “another day older and deeper in debt.” Many people are suffering this holiday season with loss of jobs and home foreclosures. But there are people around the world who are…

October 30, 2007 On October 30, 1997 I wrote my first “Thought For The Day.” That was Ten years ago today! It is very hard to believe but it is true. Ten years! Yes, there have been some days along the way and over this past summer and fall I have written sparingly. But I…

Saturday, September 29, 2007 In northern Minnesota the leaves are changing and the nights are cooling down. It is a sure sign that fall is here and, winter is coming! It is so foolish that people don’t get the things they need done to be prepared for winter. The Bible also teaches us of sure…
