LEADERSHIP AND THE POOR

2011-01-07T05:14:00.000-08:00

2010-12-17T05:04:00.000-08:00

THE CHRISTMAS STORY

The Christmas story has all the elements of the great human drama: hatred/love, poor/rich, anger/joy, sorrow/rejoicing, wondrous/miraculous. If we leave out the central figure, the story is empty, fanciful, and meaningless. And so is life when we exclude the same central figure; Jesus. “...And you shall call His name Jesus, because He will save his people from their sins.” Matthew 1:21

A TRAP

2010-12-03T04:42:00.000-08:00

Ever have an uneasy feeling when a friend tells you how good you are? “To flatter friends is to lay a trap for their feet.” Proverbs 29:5

DON’T TRUST ANYONE

2010-10-22T05:11:00.000-07:00

This is often the advice of those who have been hurt; and who hasn’t been hurt or cheated? However, if you wish to prosper there is one who will not disappoint you. “…trusting the LORD leads to prosperity.” Proverbs 23:25

GET RICH QUICK AGAIN?

2010-10-15T05:22:00.000-07:00

Proverbs seems to have a lot to say about quick money. “The trustworthy person will get a rich reward, but a person who wants quick riches will get into trouble. Greedy people try to get rich quick but don’t realize they’re headed for poverty. Proverbs 28:20,21 NLT “…people who long to be rich fall into temptation and are trapped by many foolish and harmful desires that plunge them into ruin and destruction. For the love of money is the root of all kinds of evil. And some people, craving money, have wondered from the true faith and pierced themselves with many sorrows.” 1 Timothy 6:9,10 NLT

WORK, UGH!

2010-10-09T04:45:00.000-07:00

MURDER

2010-10-01T04:58:00.000-07:00

TIRED? WORD OUT? EXHAUSED?

2010-08-27T04:19:00.000-07:00

We get this way sometimes. Jesus said, “Are you tired? Worn out? Burned out on religion? Come to me. Get away with me and you'll recover your life. I'll show you how to take a real rest. Walk with me and work with me – watch how I do it. I won't lay anything heavy or ill-fitting on you. Keep company with me and you'll learn to live freely and light.” Mathew 11:28-30 The Message

SOW CORN AND GET WHEAT

2010-08-06T05:49:00.000-07:00

It will never happen. You do get what you sow. “He who sows iniquity will reap sorrow, and the rod of his anger will fail.” Proverbs 22:8 “ThosSe who plant seeds of injustice will reap disaster; and their reign of terror will end.” LB. Galatians 6?8 puts it this way; He who sows to the flesh shall reap corruption. He who sows to the Spirit shall reap life everlasting.

TERROR

2010-07-29T13:18:00.000-07:00

We may not see this truth at present but God will have His way. “Those who plant injustice will harvest disaster and their reign of terror will come to an end.” Proverbs 22:8 NLT

SLAVERY

2010-07-23T04:25:00.000-07:00

DIRECT A CHILD

2010-07-16T04:34:00.000-07:00

There is a false notion popular these days. Don’t give your child religion. Just wait till he is older and let him choose for himself. Proverbs 22:6 says, “Direct your children onto the right path, and when they are older, they will not leave it.”

SPENDTHRIFT

2010-06-11T06:09:00.000-07:00

TROUBLE

2010-06-04T04:51:00.000-07:00

TRY THIS

2010-05-28T04:38:00.000-07:00

PUNISHMENT

2010-05-08T07:08:00.000-07:00

FATAL DECISION

2010-04-23T05:43:00.000-07:00

"The person who strays from common sense will end up in the company of the dead.” Proverbs 21:16

THREE MORE ELEMENTS FOR PROSPERITY

2010-04-16T06:18:00.000-07:00

There is a worth while saying, “Look before you leap.”. Proverbs 21:5 says, “Good planning and hard work lead to prosperity, but hasty shortcuts lead to poverty.”

ACTIONS SPEAK LOUDER THAN WORDS

2010-04-09T02:22:00.000-07:00

Show me what one has done not what he says he’s going to do. “Even children are known by the way they act, whether their conduct is pure, and whether it is right.” Proverbs 20:11 NLT

PLANS

2010-04-02T04:44:00.001-07:00

THE SHADOW KNOWS

2010-03-19T04:17:00.001-07:00

Some of you may remember the radio show; The shadow Knows. The announcer would introduce the show with, “Who knows what lurks in the heart of man…the shadow knows.” Proverbs 20:24 says, “The LORD directs our steps, so why try to understand everything along the way?”

MANAGEMENT

2010-03-12T11:48:00.000-08:00

It might give us some good advice if we changed the word king in the following to boss, owner or manager. “A wise king scatters the wicked like wheat, then runs his threshing wheel over (punishes) them. Unfailing love and faithfulness protect the king; his throne is made secure through love.” Proverbs 20:26,28 NLT

LEADERS

2010-03-05T05:38:00.000-08:00

HOW CAN IT BE SO BAD IF IT FEELS SO GOOD?

2010-02-06T09:18:00.000-08:00

TIRED? WORN OUT? EXHAUSTED?

2010-01-22T06:08:00.000-08:00

We all get this way sometimes. Here is Jesus' advice. “Come unto me all ye that labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest to your souls. For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.” Matthew 11:28-30KJ “Are you tired? Worn out? Burned out on religion? Come to me. Get away with me and you'll recover your life. I'll show you how to take a real rest. Walk with me and work with me – watch how I do it. Learn the unforced rhythms of grace. I won't lay anything heavy or ill-fitting on you. Keep company with me and you;ll learn to live freely and light.” The Message

HAGGLES

2010-01-16T06:55:00.000-08:00

NEW NEW NEW

2009-12-28T05:28:00.000-08:00

There are many new things. Here are three new things worth considering. “...changed into a new and different people.” Galatians 6:15 NLT. “...new mercies (compassion) morning by morning...” Lamentations 3:23. “And I saw a new heaven and a new earth...” Revelation 21:1

CHRISTMAS MESSAGE

2009-12-19T14:22:00.000-08:00

A very important part of the Christmas story is that God came “to grant us that we, being delivered from the hand of our enemies, might serve Him without fear, in holiness and righteousness before Him all the days of our life.” Luke 1:74,75 NIV. We, in America, have been delivered from our enemies; both from within and without. Now we must serve Him not our selfish desires. If we serve Him we win. If we serve ourselves our enemies win. God help America!

I DIDN'T DO IT

2009-12-11T05:48:00.000-08:00

“Who can say, ‘I have cleansed my heart; I am pure and free from sin’?” “…the blood of Jesus, His (God’s) Son, cleanses us from all sin.” Thank God for the hope we have in Jesus. Proverbs 20:9, 1 John 1:7 NLT

I ONLY HAD ONE, OFFICER

2009-12-04T04:57:00.000-08:00

DRUNKENESS & GLUTTONY

2009-11-28T03:35:00.000-08:00

PUBLIC DEFENDER

2009-11-20T07:07:00.000-08:00

There is a definite need for lawyers to defend those who cannot speak for themselves; especially those who have not been born yet. “Speak up for those who cannot speak for themselves, ensure justice for those being crushed. Yes, speak up for the poor and helpless and see that they get justice.” Proverbs 31:8,9 NLT

JEALOUSY

2009-11-13T05:21:00.000-08:00

Which is worse, anger, wrath, or jealousy. “Anger is cruel, and wrath is like a flood, but jealousy is even more dangerous.” Proverbs 27:4 NLT

SELF-CONTROL

2009-11-07T05:34:00.000-08:00

Someone prayed, “Lord remind me that it takes 40 muscles to frown, 20 muscles to smile and only 5 muscles to make a fist and punch someone’s mouth.” Most of us do not need that reminder. Proverbs 25:28 says, “A person without self-control is like a city with broken-down walls.”

PREDICT THE WEATHER?

2009-10-30T05:25:00.000-07:00

We can't predict next weeks weather accurately, how can we predict what the weather will be like in 100 years? Likewise we don't know if we'll even be alive tomorrow, so don't put off for tomorrow what we can do today. "Don't brag about tomorrow, since you don't know what the day will bring." Proverbs 27:1 NLT And how about the time to receive Jesus as your Savior? "...the right time is now. Today is the day of salvation." 2 Corinthians 6:2 NLT

CURSE OR A SPELL

2009-10-23T14:28:00.000-07:00

Do you believe in the power of a curse or spell? Proverbs 26:2 says, “Like a flitting sparrow, like a flying swallow, so a curse without cause shall not alight.” The Message puts it this way, “You have as little to fear from an undeserved curse as from the dart of a wren or the swoop of a swallow.” remember what Jesus did, “Christ redeemed us from the curse of the law, having become a curse for us...” Galatians 3:13

LOYALTY

2009-10-09T05:08:00.000-07:00

The marriage vows include, “for better or worse…”. Too often when the going gets tough many quit. “Many will say they are loyal friends, but who can find one who is truly reliable!” Proverbs 20:6 NLT
Jesus asked, “'Do you also want to go away?' But Peter answered, 'To whom shall we go? You have the words of eternal life.'” John 6:67,68

THE LAZY MAN'S PAY

2009-10-03T04:44:00.000-07:00

“Those too lazy to plow in the right season will have no food at the harvest. If you love sleep, you will end in poverty. Keep your eyes open, and there will be plenty to eat!” Proverbs 20:4,13 NLT Some times we are so busy sowing the wrong seed that we are too tired to sow the right seed. Galatians 6:8,9 “He that sows to the flesh shall of the flesh reap corruption; but he that sow to the Spirit shall of the Spirit reap life everlasting. And let us not be weary in well doing; for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not.”

MACHO MAN ?

2009-09-25T04:54:00.000-07:00

No one is going to make me look like a fool. Maybe that’s because you’re doing a good enough job yourself. “Avoiding a fight is a mark of honor, only fools insist on quarreling.” Proverbs 20:3 NLT

I ONLY HAD ONE, OFFICER

2009-09-18T04:20:00.000-07:00

Plans

2009-09-04T03:47:00.000-07:00

People or Monkeys

2009-09-02T18:32:00.000-07:00

A youngster asked his mother, " Where do people come from?"
Mom said, "God made Adam and Eve and people came from them."
The youngster asked his dad the same question.
His dad said, "Look at the monkeys and apes. We came from them."
The youngster returned to his mother and asked. " Mom, I asked dad where people come from and he said from monkeys. You said people come from Adam and Eve. What is right?
Mother said, That's easy. I was telling where my side of the family came from and dad said where his side of the family came from."

Death: Ted Kennedy

2009-08-28T05:00:00.000-07:00

Ted Kennedy passed away and many try to judge him. It is foolish to judge another's relationship to God. “For we shall all stand before the judgment seat of Christ...each of us shall give account of himself to God” Rom.14:10-12 “of himself” not another. How about your own relationship to God? Where will you go when you die? Jesus said, “I am the way, the truth, the life; no man comes to the Father but by me.” John10:10

DOUBLE TALK and MOTIVES
