In church last Sunday, our preacher was talking about children. How enthusiastic they are about almost everything. The illustration he gave was singing in Sunday School. He said he could remember everyone singing, “This little light of mine” and how excited everyone would get when the devil tried to whoosh out their light. We all…
Did any of you watch the movie, “Bruce Almighty?” It was a movie starring Jim Carrey, and Morgan Freeman. It is a movie where the character, Bruce, complains to the Lord over and over. The Lord decides to let “Bruce” do the job to teach him a lesson. I remember a scene where Bruce is…
I never watch the evening news. It is always so depressing to me, and they hardly ever have anything good to say. I don’t need to know when someone is brutally killed in Michigan if I live in Virginia. I don’t even want to know that there are child molesters out there, much less a…
I’ve made no secret that this was a busy week for me. I was preparing for a big District meeting for our woman’s club, and was trying to help with projects at the local level. Running here, hurrying to complete one task, so I could scurry on to the next task. Feeling just a little…
In last Sunday’s post I mentioned that my sister bought me a book, Draw the Circle, The 40 Day Prayer Challenge. I started the book and was so impressed that I turned around and ordered one for my best friends, Sandy and Bertha. Each morning when I get up, I fix myself a cup of coffee,…
I have a confession to make. When I decided to start posting on Sundays, it was not for YOUR benefit, it was for MINE. I felt lacking in almost every way spiritually. I thought that if I posted about my short comings, maybe that would encourage me to fix those problems. I figured it I…
Today is Easter Sunday, and we have so much to be thankful about. Number one on the list is, He is alive and so are you. Because He has risen from the grave, we now have a chance at eternal life. I look at my own children, and wonder at the sacrifice that was made…
How many times have you said, “I don’t want to go today”, when talking about church? I’m tired, I’m sleepy, it’s too cold, it’s raining, or it’s snowing. All good excuses, but that is just what they are, excuses. When you think of the sacrifice that Jesus made for us, it makes most of our…
Our Sunday school started the lesson plans based on the movie, The War Room, last Sunday. It is such a wonderful and inspirational movie, if you have not seen the movie, make sure you do. In the movie, Miss Clara wants to know about your prayer life? Is it hot or cold? The answer given…
This Sunday, my Sunday school class will be starting a new series based on the movie, The War Room. I am really looking forward to this series. I just finished watching the movie, and it was great! If you have not already watched the movie, I highly recommend that you do. I rented mine on television,…
