Please pray for me
Please pray for us. I've been in ER since 1:30 with unrelenting chest pain. Will prob be going up for heart cath in just a bit and hopefully not to bypass. Haven't had pain like this since early spring. God has brought us this far.... He's not leaving us now!

Wait on Him!
Wait on Him
"..and David enquired of the Lord."
2 Sam. 5:23
David "had gained one battle by the strength of the Lord; he would not venture upon another until he had ensured the same. He enquired.... He waited til God's sign was given"
Spurgeon
"As sure as ever a Christian carves for himself, he will cut his fingers"
Unknown Puritan
Oh, how I need to remember to look before I leap, to seek Him before I move. How much heartache, missteps, blunders, and defeat would we avoid if we let our steps be ordered by the Lord?
If you've stepped away, Look up! Turn around!
May we seek His face before we face any other today and every day!

Cauterizing of the Conscience
Cauterizing of the Conscience
"If you cauterize a thing, it will hurt at first, but after it heals over, you have no feeling there. Where the cauterization took place, there will develop a hard shell, a thick skin. Sin does that. It cauterizes the conscience, and soon it does not bother us that we are sinning.
This is the of the blinding agent of the unholy one we call the devil. I do believe in the devil and that he blinds the minds of those who believe not, lest the light of the glorious gospel of Christ shine onto them."
A.W. Tozer
Always There!
Always There
"Where shall I go from your Spirit? Or where shall I flee from your presence?
If I ascend to heaven, you are there!
If I make my bed in Sheol, you are there!
If I take the wings of the morning and dwell in the uttermost parts of the sea, even there your hand shall lead me, and your right hand shall hold me."
Psalm 139:7-10
He's always there! Take this thought into your day. If you're a child of God, there is no place to go that His presence doesn't go. There is no place where His hand is not outstretched to you and to me.
Even though we may turn away and slack off from communing with him, you can't escape Him.
Have you made your bed in Hell? Scripture goes as far as to say that even there He goes with us.
You may be completely out of fellowship with Him today. You may be somewhere you never, ever intended to end up and think you're too far gone.
Let me tell you it's never too late. Reach up and grab His hand, call out to Him....turn around!
He's always there..... Hand outstretched......still paving roads through wildernesses of our own making.
Praise His Holy Name!
May you seek His face before
You face any other today!
