He is Glorious!
When you need a reminder that God still cares…
When you need to remember all that He has done for you…
When you find yourself wondering just who’s in control of this crazy world…
Watch this:
“For every house is built by someone, but He who built all things is God.” Hebrews 3:4
“You, Lord, in [...]

Not Me! Monday (On Wednesday)
Following Leslie’s lead, this is “Not Me! Monday” — (the Wednesday version).
I’ve NOT done this before, so here goes:
I have NOT just gone through a really crazy few days. Certainly NOT brought on by what “Dr. Google” says might be PMDD, or NOT EVEN for the fact that I’m now officially over 40, but could instead [...]

Catch Up.

My daughter had a birthday…she’s now 21, and I’m just — old.
My four year old defines worship as “when you share your toys, but not your germs”

He went walking and leaping and praising [...]

Acts, Chapter 2.
Verse 1
“When the Day of Pentecost had fully come, they were all with one accord in one place.” Acts 2:1

What was the “Day of Pentecost”? From [...]

Acts, Chapter 1
Wow! I didn’t realize that I was going to write four posts before even getting to the first Chapter! Thanks for sticking with me so far :0)
Now’s the part where I make observations, ask questions, and depend on all of you to help me with the answers. This past Sunday’s message by Bro. Mike spoke [...]

Acting in the Spirit.
My last post, Act as a Witness, addressed our mission as Christians using the biblical text of Acts 1:8. Because I was focusing on our mission, I almost left off part of the verse — the beginning that speaks of the power of the Holy Spirit:
“you shall receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you, [...]
