Today is the Day of Salvation

Today is the day of salvation
Why is this hard to believe
Our culture has put man before God
A trick that’s designed to deceive
So many will fall to the pressure
Don’t push me – It’s my life to live
I can’t be as bad as you tell me
I’ve done nothing for Him to forgive
The message is all you can tell them
The Truth is all you can say
The Spirit is what will convict them
Confession’s required this day
Belief is our confirmation
Christ died and defeated the grave
A gift that’s beyond understanding
A knowledge our soul has been saved

What a Relief!

A Part of Life

One night, we were awakened by the ringing of the telephone.  My husband, Darryl, got up to answer it in the living room.  I was not fully awake, but I was very much aware that it was deep in the night.  Phone calls this late are never good news.  I lay there struggling with the reality of that and trying to pretend that maybe the phone hadn’t rang, or somehow it would just be a wrong number, or some other benign happening.  Continue reading What a Relief!

The Labyrinth of Life

This past summer, my husband and I went on a little vacation, and by that I mean I went with him to work for a few days.  He travels a lot with his job.  We spent a couple of those days in Kansas City and were able to attend a Royals baseball game.  We hadn’t been anywhere in quite a while, and even though it was a “working holiday”, I was pretty excited about getting to spend time with my husband and laying out at the hotel pool while he worked.  The day we departed, he asked if there was anything particular I wanted to do while we were in Kansas City.  I had been wanting to go to the IKEA that had opened there for a while so I told him about that.  He didn’t really know what IKEA was and thought this was a questionable request.  No more was said about IKEA for the next two days, and I figured by his dismissive response earlier that we would not be making a visit.

I’m Not Done Yet

So many things have gone on in my life in the last several days.  Seems like the devil is working overtime to try and steal my joy.  But, that is life, and it’s hard to have a message if there isn’t a mess to go through, or a testimony if there aren’t some tests along the way.  “Consider it a great joy, my brothers, whenever you experience various trials, knowing that the testing of your faith produces endurance.  But endurance must do its complete work, so that you may be mature and complete, lacking nothing.” James 1:2-4  So…bring it on Satan!  I’m not done yet.   Continue reading I’m Not Done Yet
