A Weekend Wedding

This past Saturday, our family came together in celebration of yet another of the Father’s blessings.    It wasn’t either of our daughters, although both were in attendance.

My First Burning Heart

I still clearly remember the first time the Father spoke directly to me through His Word.   I was 16-years-old and just home from youth camp.

Look at this truth:   “..everything that can stand the fire, you shall pass through the fire” Numbers 31:23   There is …

  The Father keeps bringing me back to this idea of “dynamis” or power. Remember our discussion about it on Monday?   All day yesterday, He kept refreshing me with Philippians 4:13. You know the verse:   “I can do all things through Him who strengthens me.”   Well, guess what?   Here again is this idea of the dynamite …

Effective work
