Sometimes you think you’re going one way and then find yourself going another...🤔 The mind of man plans his way, But the LORD directs his steps. Proverbs 16:9
Today, 22 years ago my son went home to heaven. There is not 1 day that goes by that I don’t think of him...time doesn’t heal this. The comfort & hope (living) I have found since day 1, is in the risen Christ. 1 Peter 1:3 #Heaven#tillwemeetagain
Then the hand of the LORD was upon me there, and He said to me, “Arise, go out to the plain, and there I shall talk with you.” Ezekiel 3:22 #Godstillspeaks#ThewordofGod#prayer

As true this Memorial Day as it was during WW II:
“Dear Lord
Lest I continue
My complacent way,
Help me to remember that somewhere,
Somehow out there
A man died for me today.
As long as there be war,
I then must
Ask and answer
Am I worth dying for?”
-Eleanor Roosevelt

Trust in the Lord with all your heart; do not depend on your own understanding. Seek his will in all you do, and he will show you which path to take. Proverbs 3:5-6
For I know the plans I have for you,” says the Lord. “They are plans for good and not for disaster, to give you a future and a hope. In those days when you pray, I will listen. If you look for me wholeheartedly, you will find me. Jeremiah 29:11-13 #SeekHim
Loyal: giving or showing firm and constant allegiance to a person...Loyalty is exactly what God is looking for. For the eyes of the LORD roam to and fro over all the earth, to show Himself strong on behalf of those whose heart is fully devoted to Him. 2 Chronicles 16:9a
To @TaylorU graduates: have faith in the principles and ideals that you learned here and the noble mission that’s always animated this university. Have faith that He who brought you this far will never leave you, nor forsake you, because He never will.
To @TaylorU Class of 2019, I hope that you will aspire to serve. I believe public service is a noble calling. But wherever life takes you, take a servant’s attitude. Consider others as more important than yourselves. Live your lives as Christ did: Not to be served, but to serve.
The Christian life is a day to day battle. Know your enemy... #theflesh#theworld#satan A final word: Be strong in the Lord and in His mighty power. Put on all of God’s armor so that you will be able to stand firm against all strategies of the devil. Eph 6:10-11 #thewordofGod
