Isaiah 49:6 tells the prophet he is to be a light to the nations, and so should each of us that know the grace of the Lord. This is indeed the greater task to which we should aspire. Isaiah was shortsighted and thought he was only a minister to the Hebrews but God said that task was ...Too Small A Thing... and that He would be a witness to the enitre earth. And so he wrote a book we read 2700 years later.

Try Again

This blog site began in 2006, and for many years I kept a daily post on the site. Subjects vaired over the years from family, to church, to the police work I was doing, and of course mission events. But most of the time it was a devotional page. I hope the one thing that was most constant was the lifting up of Jesus Christ as "Lord of All" to anyone who read these words I wrote. I think I am going to start trying to put up fresh material again. If a few read and Christ is glorified I will have succeeded. My Pastor from FBC Ellijay preached yesterday on a passage from Joshua 13.

1Now Joshua was old and advanced in years, and the LORD said to him, “You are old and advanced in years, and there remains yet very much land to
possess. Joshua 13:1 ESV

The message was a real challenge to keep on being active for the work of God, even in my senior years.I started going to the gym to work out a few weeks ago and

it feels great, but not necessarily while I am working out. The results however I am pleased with the overall way I feel. So here I am at the keyboard again to try to put into a published page a few words that can help someone who needs a bit of a push. You just DO NOT get too old to do something for the Lord. While I do have to stay close to home now, to care for my wife, I can still write and put into a useful way some of my life experiences. So here I am. I am going to try again to write regularly. If you were a regular reader in the past welcome back. If this is the first time to see this blog, I am glad you dropped in. If you are curious there are literally thousands of my old blog post in the archives. The photos are from mission work through the years. I have been blessed by the Lord in so many ways. I hope you will join me and that I can write something you can read and grow closer to the Lord.
