God Has Spoken

There have been several times in my life when God has spoken to me in "dramatic fashion." Understand that he continually talks with me, about purpose, direction, and also just in a fellowship manner. He desires to have continual communication with us.

When I say "dramatic fashion," I'm talking a "life-changing" or "life-transforming" manner. Consider conversations that you've had with your parents, children, or spouse. You have communication regularly. However, a few of those conversations have been "life-changing" or "life-transforming" for one party or the other, or both.

Well, I've had several of those conversations with the Lord, that I can go back and say, "This communication transformed my life." On Sunday, 7/24/2016, I experienced one of those moments. God sent Tim Storey to South Plains Church in Levelland, TX, with a message for me. (The message was for Cindy, as well, and I'll allow her to share that message when, where, and how, she sees fit.)

What a powerful message. I will not elaborate on it in this post, because I'm still processing all that took place, and all that was spoken and communicated.

At this point, I want to thank God for His faithfulness, His mercy, and His grace. We'll see the effects of today, in the days, months, and years to come.

To God be all glory, honor, and praise!

God's Favor

You need to know, and understand, that you are favored. God's grace brings favor for you ... before God AND man.

Have you seen situations in your life when you were favored in a situation, and it left you bewildered as to why? That's God's favor.

I used to tease Cindy about us having the "front row anointing." We'll be looking for a parking place at Walmart, or the mall, and *BOOM* we have a spot in the front. Now she's saying it. It happens too often to be a "coincidence." It's the favor of God!

Some may say, "that never happens to me." To which I would reply, "you're probably right."

God desires to bless you in such small ways, as well as in major situations. He favors you! You need to begin to look for His favor. Recognize it, be aware of it, so you can give Him thanks for His favor.

Please share some comments, give testimony of His goodness and His favor in you life.

May God bless you abundantly, and make you a blessing to others!

Take Control of Time, Don't Allow Time to Slip Away

Time is precious and valuable. There is truly nothing more valuable than time. Once time has passed, one can never get it back. It's more valuable than money. You can get more money, but you can't get more time. So, even though you may not think something you are spending your time on has much value, it is truly the most valuable thing in your life at that moment. Because the time you are spending on it cannot be replaced.

Think about the things you are spending your time doing. Is it truly that valuable to be worthy of the time you are spending? We have been given "time" by our Creator. How are we using that time?

What is your time worth? Is it measured by the hour? year? or lifetime? How do you measure the value of your time?

I suggest to you that the only measure of our value comes from God. The value He saw in each of us was worth Jesus giving His life, so that we may live. Each of us were created for a purpose, and that purpose has great value in the eyes of God. The key is to find out from Him what your purpose is, then you will grow to know how to utilize your time most effectively.

Don't sell yourself short. Don't allow the enemy to come in and steal your time. Stay on course with the purpose God created you for, and you will see great things accomplished in your life.

May God bless you abundantly, and make you a blessing to others!
