COMPASS THOUGHTS ON…….PURPOSEFUL LIVING God has “gifted” every one of His kids here on earth, for heavenly purposes!  Have you found your gift (an area of ability that God has given you)?  If so, is it being employed somewhere?   I don’t mean just for a church service, but anywhere and everywhere?  In your neighborhood, atContinue reading ““PURPOSEFUL LIVING””

The Gospel According to You Men are not reading the Bible today They’re dashing about in their own reckless way. Most of them don’t care what God has to say, But brother, they’re reading you. What is the gospel according to you? Can people see that to Christ you are true? Your neighbor reads yourContinue reading “EXPANDING HIS INFLUENCE”

This post may be presented differently this time, as I’m going to envisage that you may be sitting right here with me across from my computer screen.  I’d offer you tea or coffee,but since that’s an impossibility, let’s just imagine that delight.  OK? I don’t know about you, but I often have real practical questionsContinue reading “THINKING BIBLICALLY….. FOR PRACTICAL LIVING”

Hello there! It has been a while since I’ve posted anything.  We moved from Arizona to British Columbia 9 months ago, and I’m still “adjusting!”  You’d think that by the frequency of our God-orchestrated “moving adventures,” I’d have this in the bag…. but I don’t. Like any outdoor plant that is transplanted, it feels weak,Continue reading “FEELING ‘HIS’ PLEASURE”

Each day our lives are a ‘page’ that God composes in our voyage of faith.  We’re given only twenty-four hours in a day.  And we live moment-to-moment, hour-by-hour, and day-by-day.  We all have the same amount of time (a precious commodity). The date of this writing is May 26, 2024.  Today each moment and hourContinue reading “GOD IS THE COMPOSER OF OUR STORY”

“ENCOURAGEMENT THROUGH A PARAKEET“ By now, you’ll have recognized the fact that I enjoy and love animals – all sizes – all types (with a few crawling & slithering exceptions).  In fact, as I glance out my window at 6 am or 3 pm, two little wild bunnies make their daily appearance for pieces ofContinue reading “WELCOME BACK TO A NEW SEASON”

COMPASS THINKING……. Compass thinking is what I introduced to my blog ten months ago.  Call it a new season of thinking…. but my reasoning behind this “new route” of communicating is that I’d like to just share with you some of what the Lord has teaching me in my journey down here. I’ve found thatContinue reading ““It’s Time To Climb Up….Into His Lap” COMPASS THINKING”

It was that time of the year…. a quarterly dental cleaning.  I always enjoy visiting with the dental hygienist, Jill.  She’s good at her job, thorough, yet very gentle.   As she approached her tools, I mentioned that my back tooth seems a bit different.  I could feel that it didn’t that normal smoothness in itsContinue reading “THE “CROWN OF JOY” IN THE DENTAL CHAIR”

Several months ago, I shared that I may take a twist in how I present what I place on my blog.  We all need people in our lives to encourage us and spur us on in our individual walk with Jesus.  Hebrews 10:24 “Let us consider one another in order to stir up love andContinue reading ““IN THE WAITING ROOM””

What room are you living in at the moment?  If you’re in the kitchen, let’s get together for tea or a latte?   Sound good?  There are a number of rooms in a house, but currently I seem to be adapting long term to the “waiting room” … God’s waiting room.  As humans, we don’t careContinue reading “GOD’S UNUSUAL ACTIVITY”
