A Note To a Friend: Linda Cole



Early into my forays into the internet world, I determined that I would spend as much time as I could encouraging other friends. This blog is dedicated to Linda Cole, who has been a powerful catalyst for me to build new friendships around the world. I would imagine that she's also been a catalyst for many others also, maybe even you. Isn't God good to give us such wonderful friends?

Hi, Linda!

You saw something about me worth encouraging, and I really am thankful for that.
You might be surprised how much God reveals to the person with a shepherd's heart. You would probably not be surprised that most of us also have similar struggles with ourselves.
We are all flawed, but God's strength is made perfect in our weakness. The person who "has no flaws" is perhaps the most flawed of all.

Lay Your Burden Down



This is a picture of my late wife Lynne, Becky
at 6 weeks old, and myself. We were moving
to North Dakota from California and
stopped at this Western tourist attraction.




A note to all my friends: when we lost our son shortly Billy after birth, somebody brought in a record player to Lynne's room.
While Lynne was recovering in the Mohall, North Dakota, hospital from both the caesarean section and our son's death, she played this 
song over and over, and it greatly helped her. I offer it to all of you both on Youtube and if you're so inclined, purchase it on Amazon on my monetized link.

Lord Jesus, help us to get back on track, & learn to walk with You again in the garden of fellowship.
God speaks to those who need a lesson or be a lesson. Remember He spoke to Job AND Satan!
How does God choose to whom He speaks? He speaks to those who will OBEY AND BECOME A LIVING LESSON!
Solomon didn’t understand one woman's potential passion was greater than his 1000 wives.
God’s English speaking children, restless curious travelers... their language spreads the Gospel.
What connects an organization? Makes them effective & creative? The Creator & His Son!
The Law written in our hearts is The Living Word, Crucified for our sins!
The epic Cross defeats evil's forces, subdues our wild fearful nature, invites us into God 's Presence.
Embrace the man/God sent by Father to die on the Cross, be resurrected by the Spirit & be my brother.
Praise 101... taught by the Holy Spirit... textbook is The Bible... guest lectures by David, Job, Paul.
Life is not measured by number of breaths we take , but moments that take our breath away! ??

Secret Server Story Disappears!

I looked for this story on a dozen sites but the story had been pulled. Evidently someone had not done their research before posting this. They didn't listen to the sage advice of Ronald Reagan: Trust, but verify!
Try it yourself. Copy and paste this phrase in Google search.

Best Biscuits Ever

Took Mary out again tonight for her second Valentine's Dinner to Red Lobster in Novi MI. Spent $100 on two meals and over half of it is in the refrigerator. As Martha Stewart says, That's a good thing!
A note to Rednek-Stan about Red Lobster biscuits: No other better! On my top 10 biscuit list Red Lobster is #1, #2 is Popeye's, distant 3rd and 4th is Kentucky Fried and McDonald's. Arby's has several of the best sandwiches on earth, but their biscuits are hockey pucks.

Friendship is like a BOOK. It takes a few minutes to burn, but it takes years to write.
You may be thinking "Will that preacher ever shut up about those miraculous parables?" ummmm... probably not.
The Holy Spirit is the Webmaster of the spiritual internet, packets of grace and praise flowing instantly through lines of faith.
Marine!: God is at work in your life. Let Him command your heart. Let Jesus be the only One you surrender your heart to.
God's Word is a Sword in the hands of the Spirit led preacher, & quickly cuts away rotting sinful flesh from the spiritual heart.
So many delightful friends to chat with, much helpful info to learn, but I must pull away from the internet, and seek Your Face, God.Jesus, tear laden words flow from my heart oe'r my friends, some hurting, some lost. Find the lost. Touch the hurting.
God doesn't smoke cigars but at times I see Him like Hannibal in A-Team saying I love it when a plan comes together!
3 signs of lost fellowship with God: seeking salvation through knowledge, running from God, heart filled with blame.
My Lord said- If I be lifted up, I'll draw all men to me! Nothing lifts Jesus higher that telling the Story of the Cross!
Note: when I experience spiritual growth because of God's grace, resist the temptation to pat myself on the back.
There is a difference between being under the Law, without grace, & having the Law written in my heart, full of grace.
