{Matthew 18:3 ,Mark 10:15, I Corinthians 1;26-29, I Corinthians 14:20, I Peter 2:2} Jesus came as a baby and wants me, also, to come as a baby. If I come to God , all grown-up and “wise”, like the pharisees, I will never enter the kingdom. Not many wise, not many strong are chosen but […]
Recently I was in line at a grocery store when the lady in front of me went around the plastic shield with a mask just covering only her chin and got within 2 feet of the poor checkout lady to ask a question. I asked her to stop endangering the life of the nice checkout […]
OK, I know that is bad grammar, but why do I worry and is it healthy? Worry, as a reaction to potential danger, is a God given gift. Children often don’t worry enough (especially teenagers).

The Touch of the Master’s Hand ‘Twas battered and scarred, and the auctioneer Thought it scarcely worth his whileTo waste much time on the old violin, But held it up with a smile.“What am I bidden, good folks,” he cried, “Who’ll start the bidding for me?”“A dollar, a dollar. Then […]
A poem based on I John 3:19=21 The tempter whispers in my heart You sure you even made a start? You never do the things you should, You never do what Jesus would! You are a mess! A hopeless case! The very worst of Adam’s race! Yes, in God’s race, no point to run, Just […]
