Colossians 1
Take a quark, a tiny particle of matter. In it's natural state it vibrates at the rate of other particles around it, a harmony. Add energy to the quark, and it begins to warm other quarks around it with radiant heat. Add enough energy, & it will EXPLODE into light, announcing to the universe it's new state.
Thank you, Jesus, for the GOSPEL, for it turns us into light for the world to see the TRUTH.
If you believe the Gospel, you have more than a bright future, you are the light of the future.
I have been neglecting my time with You, Lord, but You are gently prodding me to stay close!
Lord, you are the One Who holds back reproach, a punishment we deserve, for we have all failed You.
Thank You for Your mercy, demonstrated by Your Son Jesus & His death on the Cross.
Forgive your enemies! It messes with their heads!
I'm always thanking you, Lord Jesus, for I see faith in my Facebook and Twitter friends.
We have heard the simple, powerful story of GOOD NEWS, & it gives us HOPE!
I pray constantly for you, friends, that you would be filled with the knowledge of His Will.

CHOCOLATE! The breakfast of Champions!
If you want breakfast in bed, sleep in the kitchen - the cook
Better living through DENIAL!
We are like tea bags, we never know how strong we are until God dips us in hot water.
Dinner Is ready when the smoke alarm goes off- the cook
The proud thinks he creates his own path, that blindly leads to disaster.
The Garden Where God Walks
Whenever I feel I am inadequate, I go back to the garden, the garden where God walks.
Eve walked in the garden with God, but turned her back on God to embrace the tree of knowledge. We are still turning our backs on God to embrace technology.
Adam walked with God, but when Eve chose a different path, he turned his back on God, and walked with Eve.
Jesus walked with God in the Garden, and He continued to walk, even though that walk led Him to Calvary and the Cross.
We all feel inadequate to walk with God, but walking away from Him only deepens our sense of inadequacy.
Jesus, it was our sense of inadequacy that nailed you to the Cross, that caused us to walk away from the Father. Flood me with Your strengthening Grace, that I may embrace Your Cross, and walk with You always.
God made Man before Woman because you always make the rough draft before the final masterpiece. ;-)
Mary and I went to WalMart to pick up my medicine and buy myself a new pair of jeans. I had to go down two sizes to get them to fit right. The bad news is they fit so well I don't need my suspenders, my fashion statement.
On the other hand: There once was a Man who was interrupted graciously by one of the most beloved women in history. He bluntly told her: Woman, this is not on My agenda... and walked away silently. Yet He loved her, and she honored him, and they UNDERSTOOD each other.
The Man was Jesus, the woman was Mary His mother, the occasion was The Wedding in Cana.
Point? There is a structural conflict built into male female relationships, even in the BEST. God made it that way and He LIKES IT.
Suddenly I am an expert on a subject that no one likes to speak of or think of, including me, Hell. Since I first spoke on this, a world wide search has started looking for my blog on Hell, with 375 searches for the word Hell and 1000 views of that blog. Interesting that I did not make the connection between the spiritual heart and Hell, until well after I had learned to Praise and Thank Him in all things. Perhaps a deeper sense of gratefulness is directly connected to an awareness of what I have escaped.
God takes no joy in vicious words, destructive relationships, proud hearts!
The bitter word, the indifferent heart... will have no place in God’s Kingdom.
Doing the right thing will cook your goose, but the aroma of that sacrifice pleases God!
An old cold heart can hide in a young beauty, but fiery passion is agelessly beautiful!
The JOY! of a God cleansed heart is ever flowing, & infinitely greater than the happiness of a good day.
So far. I’m the oldest I’ve ever been!
I HUFFED & I PUFFED and I got out of my chair.
Horse lovers are STABLE people.
I’M THE BOSS!! my wife said I could be...
ME BOSS - YOU NOT!
