Should I Mind My Own Business

Who brought this up for me?  I could say “Henry Blackaby” because of a recent devotional of his.   But the truth is that it came up again – I observed someone not being fully truthful about something because they “just didn’t want to get involved”.    Blackaby says “One of the Christian’s greatest deterrents from sin

Joy is a Choice?

Joy is a choice?  Boy, that sure goes against the grain of our worldly thinking! If you asked a dozen people if they would rather choose joy than it’s opposite, I bet they would all instantly say “of course” – as would I. But think about the ads you see everywhere – “this will bring

Who Comes First – Me or You?

Seriously – who comes first?  Is it me or you?   Trust me, I know many of us are instantly hearing the worldly thinking so prevalent today which encourages us to live our own life and take care of our own needs and wants first. If you doubt me on this, just search online for “take

What’s Your Mission?

A mission is a special assignment given to a person or group – says the dictionary.  My immediate thought is of either an aerospace mission or a military/combat mission.  Neither are on my radar or in my history. Until Henry Blackaby got hold of me (via his devotional that gives me a daily challenge), I

Help My Unbelief

“I do believe; help me overcome my unbelief!”    Say what?  How can you have belief AND unbelief.  Isn’t that an impossibility?  And who would say this – with such fervency? And why is this important? OK, confession, I realized that I do this over and over again.  Maybe you recognize this in your life,

Remember hearing about the “Golden Rule”?  Seems parents and school teachers in my day used it a lot, generally quoted like this: Do unto others as you would have them do unto you. When I checked the phrase on the internet, I found this info:   “it is closely associated with Christian ethics though its

Wisdom Leads to Joy

OK – “whose” wisdom are we talking about?  Yes, it is a specific source – God’s Wisdom. When I saw this blog, I HAD TO read it.  And now I MUST share it.  It was just what I needed and maybe it is timely for you as well. From Cheree Hayes & BibleProject Team came

Promises

“God keeps every promise He makes.”  So says Henry Blackaby in his Experiencing God Day by Day Devotional. OK, so where’s that “peace” He promised?  And all those “things” I asked for after reading He would give what I asked.  Or is that exactly what it said in scripture?  Maybe I need to check it

Put Your Shoes On

Blackaby did it again to me.  Turned my thinking inside out and made a great point I needed. Here’s the big point & his statement –  “We can spend many hours debating and discussing issues related to the Christian life, but this means little if we never actually step out and follow Christ.” So true

Clay or Concrete?

Okay, some play-doh type of clay is fun to mold and contort into weird objects.  Otherwise, I am not real excited about playing around in clay.   There is the type of clay that comes to my mind from my Realtor days – bentonite.  Selling homes in Pueblo required checking for bentonite because it was an
