The Perfect Work of Patience

Wednesday, June 29th, 2011

One of the most subtle challenges we face is patience.   A conflict tests the soul and reports the status of our level of patience.  With the proliferation of technology in our daily lives, we are conditioned to be impatient… we want it now!  Patience is connected to hearing Our Heavenly ...

Sanctioned Theft from the Seniors?

Thursday, June 23rd, 2011

The Biblical Law of Weights and Measures requires that you don’t change a “measure” to allow you to take further value from a contract than the original agreement.  If you don’t like the inflation number, then redefine it downward.  That will save the government money since the CPI determines raises ...

Setting aside every weight…

Sunday, June 19th, 2011

One of the main themes of this blog for the last four years is “Simplify”.  In Hebrews 12:1 we read:  Wherefore seeing we also are compassed about with so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which doth so easily beset ...

On the threshold

Disinformation

Wednesday, June 8th, 2011

Disinformation is false or inaccurate information that is spread deliberately with intentions of turning genuine information useless.  On one of the morning shows, the reporter interviewed a representative with U.S. News and World Report who just completed a study to rank the top 20 diets in effectiveness.  In the interview, ...

Leviticus 19:11  ‘You shall not steal, nor deal falsely, nor lie to one another. NKJV) Yesterday, I had lunch with a friend and business associate to discuss the current business climate.  This has been a tradition of ours for nearly twenty years.  In the 90’s, we discussed how the ...
