Hello and welcome to the place where we will be busy embracing the day the Lord has given to us, this one being
Tuesday, April 14, 2026. I do thank those who take the time to peruse my stuff and especially to those who occasionally respond and mention how some little something I wrote about was a wee bit of help to them. That's gratifying to me because think about it, that's how God works. It's amazing how God will bring to my remembrance something said by our pastor or a teacher or someone giving a testimony, maybe a particular lyric from a song, someone on radio or television, or, even via social media, He will cause me to regurgitate what was said and camp out on it for a while. I know some of you know exactly what I am talking about. Typically, that partially buried thought comes up because it relates to something I happen to be dealing with at the time. Still with me? Buckle up because I'm just getting started. Not really. I thought I would put that in as a wee bit of comic relief. Our pastor likes to say when he gets all fired up how he's decided to just 'let-er rip tater chip!". You think his is better than mine? I don't mind that at all, I don't. I really don't. Getting back to the subject at hand or as you might see on a Sponge Bob episode, "A few moments later", God can use anything at anytime to get our attention and one of the ways He does that in my life is through my remembering of inputs from others. Inputs from others can be difficult at times. Sometimes they are things we need to know but maybe we are not too inclined to receive them, things that challenge us and encourage us to be more faithful in our walk with the Lord. Oh, I get it. We all remember stuff where folks were being mean or critical. Isn't it amazing how we can remember that kind of hurtful input even though it may have happened in our early days in school? Those inputs are powerful but even more powerful are the inputs that have the truth of God's word delivered with love. At any rate, those are insights into the things that make up the long running series I know most about, that is, 'the days of my life', not the other one that ran for like 100 years on TV. If you are with me, give me your best
Amen. Okay. We will try that one again after you've had more time to practice. Ha!
You will not be surprised to know that often when I reread one of my blogs, I too end up scratching my head. Not because I'm puzzled but because I may have had a coincidental head itch. Just joking. Your first interpretation, whatever it was, was likely the best understanding. Still joking. Honestly, I can say this about my blogs. Even with all of the painful prose and grammatical glitches one can typically pick up on the underlying theme. Maybe. I do try to make sure that anyone who might uncover my blog buried in some computer vault 100's of years later will see that humanity's greatest need is that each individual would recognize their sinful condition and respond to God's provision of salvation through the finished work of Jesus the Christ. (Here are the verses often used to witness to those who are lost, called the Roman Road, as found in the Book of Romans,
Romans 3:23, 6:23, 5:8, 10:9-10, 5:1, and 8:1.) I will be the first to admit that I have not always made this truth the main focus of my life and I sure haven't made it the main focus of my communication with others. But, it is what I know to be the truth and I do hope my blogs encourage others to see it as the greatest need every person who breathes air on the planet has, period. Okay. Let me finish with a comment about the recent space adventures as we all followed those who were flung out into the regions beyond. First of all, God bless those on board who daily referenced and gave honor to their Creator God. I say
Amen.
I will leave you with what Little Miss Biscuit thought about it. She was pretty excited. She was. She really was.
Ha!
