Contagious, devastating infectious diseases have always been a part of the human race, to name a few: smallpox, plague, malaria, influenza, tuberculosis, HIVAIDS, cholera, rabies, pneumonia, mers, yellow fever, meningitis, syphillis, ebola, zika virus, sars, and now COVIC-19 virus, to just name a few.   My thoughts and prayers go out...

“Have you not known? Have you not heard?  The everlasting God, the LORD, the Creator of the ends of the earth, neither faints nor is weary.  His understanding is unsearchable.  He gives power to the weak, and to those who have no might He increases strength.” (Isaiah 40: 28-29)

I invited (proposed) Becky to marry me over 39 years ago - she said, “yes.”   We both had just turned 19 years of age when we got married.   Our vows before God and witnesses were, “for richer or for poorer.  In sickness or in health.  For better or for worse - till death do we part.”

Although I...

Life is a gift given by our creator - the LORD God!   We in return of the life received are stewards, for “it is your life.” (cf. Deuteronomy 32: 47)

The bible reminds us in James “…you do not know what will happen tomorrow.  For what is your life?  It is even a vapor that appears for a little time and then vanishes away.” (4:14)   My condolences, thoughts and  prayers to all the families that have lost loved ones recently in several tragic...

The first week of this New Year I challenged myself and others to “Dare to believe God for the Impossible!”   My second week into this New Year I challenged myself and others to go forward trusting in the Providential care of God as our Great shepherd (cf. Psalm 23).   My third week going into this New Year I was hit...

I believe in the God of the Bible.  I believe the Bible to be God’s inspired word to mankind.  I believe “in the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.”  I believe “for God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have...

“Dare to believe God for the Impossible in 2020” is a theme I want to personally adopt for this New Year!  This theme is not based on feelings, emotions and “I hope so” but founded upon God’s word.  Jesus said, “…with God all things are possible.”   As a person of faith, as a...
