Today, The Verdict!
Yesterday’s verdict of guilty on 34 charges against Trump set me back for a few minutes. I wasn’t expecting it. I realized that God was not done with this case when I thought more about it. The Bible says we are to walk by faith and not by sight. Things are not always how they…

Today, The Lord’s Prophets!
The Book of Amos, chapter 3:7 says: “Indeed, the Lord does nothing without revealing his plan to His servants, the prophets.” This was true in the old days and is still true today. I have listened to some prophets (after discerning if they are true prophets) for the last few years. They are not prophesying…

Today, Honor All Veterans!
More than most, I am somber this year on Memorial Day. I had been watching “Band of Brothers” on Netflix—the World War II story about paratroopers landing amidst heavy artillery fire close to the beaches of Normandy. My father was in the Navy in World War II, and my father-in-law was a Sergeant in the…

Today, Fear of Death?
The Bible tells us that there is a heaven and a hell. Hell was originally created for Satan and his fallen angels. However, we were given free will by God, and our choices became ours. For many years as a Christian, I feared death until I got to know God. When I read the scriptures…

Today, Phony People!
The Bible warns us to stay away from false prophets and false friends. In the Old Testament, Job’s friends accused him of wrongdoing instead of supporting him. In Psalm 41, David describes a frenemy as someone who acts like a friend but then gossips about you and speaks evil of you. A quote I read…

Today, I Can!
I watched another great movie, “I Can,” last night. I subscribed to the UP Faith & Family channel and am quite impressed with its offerings. This is the story of two adulterous adults who had an affair and got pregnant. Both leave their spouses and start their new lives together. Their daughter is born with…

Today, Loneliness!
Loneliness isn’t always a negative emotion. Sometimes, loneliness takes us to deep places in our hearts and souls. We need the time to reflect and ponder our lives, our thoughts, and our purpose. We can’t do that in a crowd. Jesus often left the disciples and went off by himself to pray and draw near…

Today, Uncertainty!
These are indeed uncertain times. There are threats of more viruses, more lockdowns, and a one-world government that wants to do away with Christianity and have a one-world religion. Have you ever seen the world be so evil? Human sex trafficking, open borders, murder, violence everywhere, transgenderism, wars, and threats of more wars are all…

Today, Rejection!
Many times, in my life, I have felt the sting of rejection, sometimes from my own family, sometimes from friends, and sometimes from co-workers. It hurt deeply and made me doubt myself. Even Jesus suffered from rejection. His own people, the Jews, rejected Him in His hometown of Nazareth. Peter denied Jesus three times after…
