“Remember also your Creator in the days of your youth , before the evil days come or the years draw near when you will say , “I have no enjoyment and delight in them”; before the sun and the light, and the moon and the stars are darkened , and the clouds return after the rain ;in the day when the keepers of the house (hands, arms) tremble, and the strong men (feet, knees) bow...

BE CAREFUL LITTLE EYES

“Worship is the submission of all of our nature to God. It is the quickening of the conscience by his holiness; the nourishment of mind with his truth; the purifying of imagination by his beauty; the opening of the heart to his love; the surrender of will to his purpose--all this gathered up in adoration, the most selfless emotion of which our nature is capable.” (Quote by Archbishop William...

“Why do you see the speck that is in your brother's eye, but do not notice the log that is in your own eye? Or how can you say to your brother, ‘Let me take the speck out of your eye,’ when there is the log in your own eye? You hypocrite, first take the log out of your own eye, and then you will see clearly to take the speck out of your brother's eye.”  (Matthew 7:3-5 ESV) It’s...

“Why are you cast down, O my soul, and why are you in turmoil within me? Hope in God; for I shall again praise him, my salvation[.”  (Psalm 42:5 ESV) Talking to yourself is a good thing!  No, you are right, I have no scholastic studies to support my statement.

“But the path of the just (righteous) is like the light of dawn, that shines brighter and brighter until the perfect day.”  (Proverbs 4:18 Amplified) I have seen a few books entitled, “What If,” but the content of this meditation is very different than the topics those published authors focused on.

“Therefore I, the prisoner of the Lord, urge you to walk in a manner worthy of the calling with which you have been called, with all humility and gentleness, with patience, bearing with one another in love, being diligent to keep the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace.”  (Ephesians 4:1-3 NASB) When we think of the number “one,” we normally think of it representing not much...
