Doesn’t she light a lamp, sweep the house and search carefully until she finds it?And when she finds it, she calls her friends and neighbors together and says, ‘Rejoice with me; I have found my lost coin.’In the same way, I tell you, there is rejoicing in the presence of the angels of God over one sinner who repents.” (Luke...

A BETTER HOUSE

During my time watching HGTV shows, I learned that a house is not just a house, really. I learned that there are various types of houses: Brownstone houses, Cape Cod houses, Cottage Style houses, Colonial houses, Craftsman houses, Farmhouses, French Colonial houses, Mediterranean houses, and Mid-Century houses, just to name a few. This is very different than how I looked at houses when I wanted...

“We must work the works of Him who sent Me while it is day; night is coming when no one can work.” (John 9:4 The Amplified Bible) Every day I change something in my house.

“After leaving the synagogue that day, Jesus went to Simon’s home, where he found Simon’s mother-in-law very sick with a high fever.  “Please heal her,” everyone begged.  Standing at her bedside, he rebuked the fever, and it left her. And she got up at once and prepared a meal for them.” (Luke 4:38-39 NLV I know!  We say it all the time, “I won’t be long.”  Well...

“The earth is the Lord’s, and everything in it.” (Psalm 24:1a NLT) During normal holiday times herds of people do a lot of traveling and visiting at the homes of relatives.  I know I said normal holiday times, but even in the midst of the present day pandemic, based on the reports over the national news, the number of people traveling without a reason of necessity, such as a family...
