60 Days…Christmas Vacation!

Posted in 60 Days of Prayer, celebration, Christmas, Family, Peace, perseverence, Prayer on December 24, 2010 | Leave a Comment »

As  vacation days are beginning for most everyone today, please allow me to digress a little from the workplace theme of most of our 60 Day posts.  We all need a break from work from time to time, right? The family started arriving late yesterday afternoon. You could feel the excitement and anticipation growing all [...]

I was shocked to find myself in the CEO’s office that afternoon.  One of my “trusted” co-workers had apparently gone to HR and inquired about his options resulting from a conversation we had late one Friday afternoon.  He was a total non-believer and we were having one of those talks about what we were doing [...]

In response to my post a few days ago regarding the use of pre-written prayers, a friend sent me a note saying that the following prayer  sits on his desk and he prays it daily.  He told me he would not mind if I shared it with all of you as well. “Lord, I need [...]

60 Days….No Matter What!

Posted in 60 Days of Prayer, Adversity, Encouragement, perseverence, Prayer on November 9, 2010 | Leave a Comment »

1Thessalonians 5:17-18 “Pray continually; give thanks in all circumstances…” We have all known someone who has lived out this verse in almost incomprehensible ways.  We observe that even through the most challenging of times, certain people seem to be able to still pray and “give thanks” no matter what their circumstances may be. I am often [...]

Question 4 from Terry Turpin’s Eight to Five message – Are my circumstances driving my behavior? If you live in Northwest Arkansas and you haven’t noticed, the last couple of mornings have been beautiful.  The timing for me has worked out well because I’ve been taking my kids to school right when the sun has been [...]

The Key to Satisfactory Living

Posted in Contentment, Faith, perseverence, Trust on December 31, 2009 | Leave a Comment »

I will say of the Lord, He is my refuge and my fortress, my God; in Him will I trust.  Psalms 91:2 I love the words refuge and fortress.  They communicate strength, protection, security.  We seem to fight a relentless search from the catastrophies of life. Across all of history people have sought refuge in [...]

The Discipline of Patience

Posted in Patience, perseverence on December 29, 2009 | 1 Comment »

Wait on the Lord, be of good courage, and he will strengthen heart:  wait, I say on the Lord.”  Psalms 27:14 The taste of this verse is bitter to modern man.  Even the most devout must admit to a measure of impatience.  Much of the best of life is lost because of it.  We become [...]
