Measuring Our Heart for Action

Attitude is how we measure the heart. Attitude spells out where we are as we relate to others. The question for disciples of Jesus is “What is my attitude as I start my day?” This is a subject that needs attention because so much of our relational experience has been influenced by what we have depended on from our world conditioning as we adjust to others. And therein lies the problem, dependency. Upon what do we depend as we move from one person to another, one circumstance to another and…

Connecting the Dots

Life is a series of encounters, events and happenings. Each of us is central in what we experience in them. We process them, log them in our memory and use them as focal points in our development. Each presented its good or bad effect. Each one was a learning. But regardless, as disciples of Jesus, we can hold them in the light of His image and determine how they affect us for the glory of self or the glory of God. He is the scale we use to weigh life in all its perspectives. He is the…

Easter 42 What's in Your Toolbox?

I heard a great analogy in a brief remark made by a worshiper interviewed as he was leaving a church service. He went to church to hear the sermons because each one offered a new tool for his toolbox. It continues that theme of thinking spiritually again. If we can offer the Holy Spirit's insights, the ones He gives us as we encounter every next moment, then we are penetrating the world's negative atmosphere.

Pacemaker Review

You'll see this is the same as my letter but I wanted to record it in the blog as well.

Reviewing My Pacemaker and Why I Never Stop Learning

The ongoing lesson in my pacemaker experience is this: I was created to think spiritually but when physical circumstances overtake me my mind is consumed with me and my body's needs. We are so conditioned by the world to seeing everything in a secular perspective (personal opinion and past trial and error experience) that the unseen, the…
