Drenched

everfaith

Yesterday my daughter and I got caught in one of those weird, Texas-style, torrential thunderstorms.  The skies opened just as we left the grocery store.  By the time I got her in the car and the groceries in the trunk, I was soaked to the bone.  I even had water dripping down my nose and into my ears.  The only thing I could do was laugh.  It’s a good thing we were going straight home from there! Now that I’m warm and dry, I’ve started thinking about what it means to be drenched.  What, exactly, am I drenched in?  Yesterday … Continue reading Drenched

Mysteries Abound In The Underdog

everfaith

Life.  It’s teeming with the mysterious.  Scientists spend decades, even centuries, trying to figure out the inner workings of our physical bodies and our mental capacities.  We’ve created machines that take us soaring higher than eagles.  Computer technology allows us to know about events halfway across the world within minutes of them happening.  We can communicate with each other across thousands of miles while sitting in our cars or hiking in parks.  With all of these technological advances, the message of the cross to those who don’t believe seems…out of touch.  Who ever heard of someone coming back to life … Continue reading Mysteries Abound In The Underdog

These words from 1 Timothy 6 continue the instruction God gives those of us in America who are rich. If you are able to read this blog, then you are rich. Maybe you have two pennies in your pocket, but you are rich in education — someone somewhere gave you … Continue reading A remedy for emptiness

Huckabee Pulls Ahead

everfaith

According to the latest national poll of likely voters in the Republican primary by Rasmussen, Mike Huckabee has pulled ahead of Rudy Giuliani.  The race is still very close, with 20% indicating support for Huckabee and 17% supporting Giuliani.  And in the state of Arkansas, the poll found that Huckabee would beat Hillary Clinton. The Bible teaches us that the Lord directs the hearts of kings.  In Proverbs 21, we find that: 1 The king’s heart is in the hand of the LORD; he directs it like a watercourse wherever he pleases. 2 All a man’s ways seem right to … Continue reading Huckabee Pulls Ahead

Disquieting Thoughts

everfaith

This has been one of those marathon weeks for my family, and we’re halfway there!  The Christmas season brings with it many joys, but also many extra tasks and responsibilities.  Yesterday I had what can only be described as a migraine…at least, as far as I know.  I’ve never been diagnosed.  But I know it’s a tension headache because it begins at the base of my neck and spreads upwards until it engages my entire head and renders me useless for anything except lying still in a quiet, dark room.   Today it is a notch better, but I am wiped … Continue reading Disquieting Thoughts
