temptation...

My wife and I are at a restaraunt...there is a sign with a piece of cake on it that says, "GO AHEAD, SPLURGE!" I am soooo tempted to buy one. There is much temptation around us...after Christmas specials are everywhere. Jesus was tempted at his weakest point...He used scripture to correct the devil. If we want to resist temptation we must have scripture in our lives. We must live, breathe and exercise our faith. Wha are you being tempted with? It might be more than just a piece of cake!

Where am I going this Sunday?

Yup! I am going back to Bethlehem! Well..not really. That is the title of the play that I will have a part in it. We have combined it with a musical called Hope Has Hands! We have worked very hard to make this a special time! Will you join us and encourage us this Sunday, December 21st at 11 am? Go to www.csbcfamily.net for directions.

Hurry

Nearly every weekday, I hurry to get my son up to drive me to the train station. It seems we always run a little bit late and i feel rushed. Today was no different, yet traffic was lighter than usual, there seemd to be less people here today, amd we arrived two minutes earlier.
It is amazing that a routine can change so quickly from one day to the next. Life can change in a twinkling of an eye. Are you in a hurry or are you watching the tracks of life pass you by? Be ready. The train is coming.

What is in your way?

This morning, I woke up to see something unusual in the Inland Empire....FOG! Fog gets in the way. It makes it difficult for us to see, drive and enjoy the sunrise.

What is in your way this morning? What is blocking your view? Problems, struggles, hurts? A friend, a struggling relationship, trust, a marriage? Fog disappears when the sun rises. The sun clears our view and we can see better again. Deal with the fog, but persevere through it"...how will you deal with your fog this morning?
