Times are I need to learn to keep my opinion to myself. In opinions the world is drowning. Here are some opinions to add to the flood: People who need to be spoon-fed won't grow. Don't read, don't lead. Each individual should assume responsibility for his health ─ both physical and spiritual. Vain repetitions seem...

Praying about the situation in Venezuela. And for so many troubled spots in the world, including ours. Praying my article on remnant in Portuguese will open eyes. And that the translation, to be published tomorrow, will be well received. Praying for the church to wake up to its mission and to open doors. Praying for...

A phrase in the quote below has prompted much reflection: I didn’t realize how much I relied on urgency as a substitute for structure. It wasn’t good. I don’t recommend it. So now I’m learning, or trying to learn, how to give myself structure, how to set limits. Flexibility has served me well. I needed it. Now I...

Upon my bed, I think and pray To God who sees and cares for me: May I be wise, with little to say, Since words have power, eternally. I ask for courage, that when I rise, I’ll view each soul with loving eyes And speak with kindness, gracefully.

HTH requested prayer today for this congregation. I only had email contact with their evangelist once. I know no one else, but decided to include them in my list of prayers today: The Lord’s church at Hillview Terrace in Moundsville, West Virginia, began in the early 1960s. In 1994, it became the home of the West...

Do any of these statements speak to you? These quotes are from a retired programmer. Everyone will eventually reach a point at which they can no longer do what they spent their lives doing—but it's not just about retirement; it can happen at any time earlier as well. Sometimes, the world passes you by. The key is...

My brain is toward the fried end of the scale, so I've basically been reading the last while, rather than writing. Would very much like to see nostr work without hitches. Impression is that it's going to take a while. The articles I think shallow sometimes get the best traction. Should I rethink my approach? This...

YEAR 40 | 2024-07-10 | SÃO JOSÉ DOS CAMPOS (SP) BRAZIL Events move quickly, time speeds ahead, newsletters fall behind. Vicki and I went by car to São Paulo June 29. It took just over an hour, since we went to the northeast side of the city, nearest to us. We arrived at our destination about 25 minutes before time...

This week I may tinker with both mataroa and bear to see which will meet my needs best, before taking the plunge to upgrade to a paid account. Bear gives you multiple sites, but that might encourage me to multiply. Mataroa has a much lower price, but both are exceptional, since Bear offers a heavy discount for...

Maybe you can make something of this short #Bible outline from today. “Not wrath, but salvation” 1Th 5.9-11 The destiny of God, v. 9 The death of Christ, v. 10 The purpose of life, v. 10 The base of edification, v. 11 Blame any problems on translation.

He closed his eyes and took a nap, The shortest nap that ever was took. He opened eyes to a warring map; Its frenzied chiefs their threats exhaled. At darkened days with fear he shook And prayed that wiser heads prevailed.

Dear Father: Thank you for this day. Today your sovereign will was done, Though plans of men were set aside. Your way was taught, your power was seen. I sought to please the Lord, my guide. From rise to setting of the sun, I prayed for life, and still I pray. Forgive this night my daily wrong. All glory and honor to...
