Exodus 6 Moses sure argued with God a lot!

   


 Good Saturday morning, all! Madeline and I went dancing last night to some great country love songs! That darling bride of mine has been putting up with my two left feet for over 42 years now (38 of those married)! She is and has been such a blessing to me! If you are new here, Madeline and I live on a little plot of land we named The Little Hundred Acre Wood after A.A. Milne's whole Christopher Robin crew from the original book of Winnie the Pooh. When Animals earn a name here, they are usually named after one of those characters. Our little plot of land is a hill overlooking a long panoramic view over Lake Granbury in Texas (BTW, it is well under 100 acres, it's just a name). The house was kind of a dump when we fell in love with the view and bought the place close to eight years ago now. We have been slowly remodeling it ever since. It is scheduled to be complete this year, but life has thrown us a few curveballs along the way, and it may take into next year.

When we moved here, we didn’t understand just how God ordained this move would be. I stopped running from God’s calling and went into the Seminary and have now graduated. Madeline and I found a church home that has really straightened us out for service to our Lord and Savior, Jesus the Christ. We first healed our marriage through a program called Re/Engage, then later each of us healed our souls with a program called Re/Generation. We are enjoying our best life ever, learning how to serve others down the block and also a few communities bordering our area, and through social media around the world.

As The Daily Bible Challenge expands into other platforms, we hope it will be our legacy and will eventually be picked up by another younger servant of Christ if that is God’s plan for it! But for the next few years, hopefully two decades, I will continue to get up early and write to you about reading/listening to the Bible one chapter at a time! My life’s goal now is to convince as many people as possible to read their Bible and stop listening to gossip about God and start listening to God about God! If this sounds like a challenge you want to take, please join us here daily as we listen to one or two chapters a day from the audiobook of the Bible provided by the fine folks at Blue Letter Bible. Click the link below and listen to Exodus 6 as Moses keeps arguing with God about his calling, much like I did! I am so thankful God is patient!

Talk with you soon!

Exodus 13 Hopeful recipiant of God's Love

      Good Friday morning to all of you! We have a busy day today with behind-the-scenes work for God and His people. This is the kind of thing most people don’t even think of, yet it is part of making all the pieces fit together in a church. There are so many people reaching out in need every week around the world, but behind the scenes, someone is vetting the recipients, and then after that, others are serving them with hearts full of hope and love! You may be asking, “What is this vetting”? Well, to be good stewards of God’s resources, someone needs to make sure these are not con artists going from church to church and other organizations every month, taking advantage and living high off the generosity of others and stealing those resources from the truly needy. But after the vetting, there is only love, support, and opportunities to grow and find a pathway to break the chains of poverty. For some, it is a temporary situation, a crisis pregnancy, or a sudden m...

Leviticus 9 Be a doer of God's word! It is a safer place to be, don't make stuff up on your own!

   Good morning, I will keep my ramblings very short this morning because we are doing two chapters for Todfay's Daily Bible Challenge. We are listening to chapters 9 and 10 of Leviticus. Chapter ten has something new for you to help break the difficult monotony of Leviticus! When the audiobook finishes chapter nine, just wait three seconds, and chapter ten will start on its own.    God was very clear in His instructions, and Moses and Aaron presented the details very clearly. God’s wrath was stirred when things were not followed correctly! Two sons of Aaron were made examples of by God to establish just how serious He was about how to run the tabernacle and the rituals of sacrifice. Priests and assistant priests were held to a very high standard, as they should still be today! Click the link below to listen for yourself! Talk with you soon! https://www.blueletterbible.org/audio_video/popPlayer.cfm?type=nasb_n&b=3&c=9

Exodus 10-11 Locusts and much worse on the way!

Image
     Good Wednesday morning to all of you! It is a strange morning for mid-May here on The Little Hundred Acre Wood. It is 57 degrees, and for us, that is a cold morning in May; our mornings are typically 76 degrees or more by this date. I will take full advantage of the cool weather for a project on my antique truck! Soon enough, we will have triple-digit weather for at least 3 months, so we will take advantage of any breaks like today! Later, I have a lunch with my son and my bride of 38 years in a small town a bit south of us. I love these little excursions just for fun or even for work, travel is something that is set in my bones for life! Soon we will be able to take some of these trips in my little antique truck, and that will make it even more of an adventure! But none of my adventures can hold a candle to Moses and Aaron as they battled with a king, the pharaoh of Egypt. For Today’s Daily Bible Challenge, we are in Exodus 10 and 11 this morning, just let the a...
