ALIVE IN CHRIST: LEARNING TO LISTEN TO TRUTH ABOUT YOURSELF…
During this period of COVID, I have had a lot of opportunity to listen to truth. I had opportunity before, of course. But somehow, when all the hardship of this past year converged, more than simply a worldwide pandemic came on the scene. It came with an election, with the awareness that...

HAPPY NEW YEAR 2021!…
Happy New Year 2021! An encouraging passage has been this one in Psalm 71:17-21. It's a reminder that we older ones are here for a reason--to pass on to the younger generation what a wonderful GOD we have. #happynewyear2021 #goodbye2020

So we now stand on the brink of 2021. What its ahead? Only GOD knows...truly. He is the only one who knows what is ahead of us this coming year. As much as we may wish for this coming year to be better than this past one, that will not make it so. 2020 brought a world pandemic, death,...
COME, THOU LONG EXPECTED JESUS…
This hymn by Charles Wesley reminds us not only that Christ came to set His people free from sin & its consequences. He came to bring in a whole new Kingdom, a new way of living as we find our rest in the work He did on the cross. #Christmascarols #christmasday
GOD WITH US: TO JOIN US IN OUR WEAKNESS…
Today is the last of the three ways God came to be with us. He came to be with us in our weakness. #godwithus #iamweakbutheisstrong
GOD WITH US: TO BRING REDEMPTION…
Jesus had to come to be with us so He could be both human and GOD to us. He understands temptation even better tahn we do because He has stood up to it eery time! Never once in His 33 years on earth did He give in to sin in throught, word or deed. In the end, He took on our sin and paid for it by dying and He gave us His perfect record of a sinless life. Our redemption is not based on our work, but on His. Not on our record, but on His. As a result, we can stand before GOD with a perfet record, but with nothing to brag about because we didn't do it! Hallelujah! #redemption #godwithus
