“The setting of a great hope is like the setting of the sun. The brightness of our life is gone.” – Henry Wadesworth Longfellow Today I stumbled across this quote in some papers I was sorting through from a long while ago. It struck me how true it is of my life recently but yet [...]
So as any of my friends know, my sister and I are concert freaks. We love our music and bands. This was my 5th year to attend a music fest. 4th one with my sister, and our 2nd time at the DelMar SWC fest. This was the first year it was just us 2 in [...]
I was reflecting today on my little brother Keith. We have talked several times about my visits to England. When Lisa and i went on our honeymoon we stayed in a hotel that was not far from Buckingham Palace (walking distance). Supposedly, the hotel was a converted Castle. The location was near everything we wanted [...]
This evening while we were in Bible Study there was a drama developing in our house. I was busy copying and pasting the study and not really paying attention to my granddaughter (Marie) as i should. I could see her and she was playing so I kept right on going with the study. With abou [...]
Easter. My absolutely favorite holiday. It wasn’t always that way, but since I gave my life to Christ, it has such depth and meaning. It’s not about the candy or eggs or bunnies. It’s about how Christ suffered to save us all. How He died a horrible death. The ppl of the time thought that [...]
Praying. An important part of our daily lives as Christians. It’s such a gift and an honor that our Lord and Savior wants us to come to Him with our hearts, thoughts, requests. To connect with Him and build on our relationship. Everyone has their struggles in this life, and all have different issues they [...]
This morning we reached a newer threshhold with our grandchild. For the first time I saw a recognition that she really understood that our directions were not to limit her but to protect her. It dawned on me once again how God uses His Word and Spirit not to control but to protect us. Many [...]
Many years ago as a Theology student at Howard Payne University something struck me then as it does now. We would spend endless time as theological students “discussing” or should I say debating doctrine. Most of the time all parties saying the same thing and yet never agreeing. Yet the lost were were within a [...]
Over the last few weeks i have noticed a trend in chat that seems disturbing. Normally, i would address this elsewhere but it is a thought of mine and maybe one that bears a look at. The moderators are expected to be cheerful, upbeat, knowledgable and caring. They are all of those things. But Satan [...]
The lyrics to the song “I, Believe, Help Thou My Unbelief by Bill and Gloria Gaither came to mind last night while searching for another set of lyrics. I kept running into a brick wall on the other song and this one kept popping up. I bypassed the lyrics several times because i was determined [...]
So any who really know me, know that music is a passion of mine. So I’d love to hear some of your favorite Christian bands and songs, and why. I’ll post on different bands that I think are worth a listen. I’ll also try to match up your tastes with other new and up and [...]
Hello everyone, here is my first post on the worthychat blogs. I’m so excited over this new adventure we will all have. Getting to know you each a bit more. I look forward to sharing and helping each other as we walk w/ the Lord in this family of God. Say hi to me if [...]
This evening we were in bible study and one of the chatters suggested we have more bible studies. Everyone agreed with the need for more study. Many of the problems that have slowed or even stopped studies in chat have been related to unnecessary chit chat, rabbit chasing, etc. Here is my suggestion and i [...]
