Sunday Worship (Page 24)
Dear friends, Happy 4th of July 2 days early! If you listen to all that we are bombarded with in our IT world then perhaps you are not celebrating what is going on in our nation? If I were to take you back to when the prophet Hosea spoke to God’s people you probably would…
Dear friends, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zQLazbgz90c (Please watch before Sunday) Are you fond of insects? If so which one’s? I bet you didn’t know this bit of trivia: “It has long been recognized and documented that insects are the most diverse group of organisms, meaning that the numbers of species of insects are more than any other group.…
Dear beloved, Patty and I are flying from Dubai to SFO as I type! A sweet 15-hour flight – ok maybe not so sweet! I am sitting next to a woman with a little 6-month baby boy who has been crying most of the trip! Her name is Sharmin and the little guy is named…
Dear friends, I was a senior in high school, driving my hand-me-down, beat-up, faded-blue family sedan on my way to the Exploratorium in San Francisco. It was a school trip and had my friend with me, riding shotgun. Some of you might remember that the old Exploratorium used to be near the Golden Gate Bridge,…
Dear friends, Some time ago, while I was driving south on 101 in Mill Valley, I saw a road sign that read, ‘Rough Road Ahead’! I thought, man, what an appropriate sign for life and sometimes what we experience. Some 918 people may have had warning signs going off inside, but perished because of one…
Dear friends, How important is touch? We all know that it is one of our most important senses! I am not a developmental psychologist but I vividly remember the countless touches I received from dad and mom growing up! Perhaps I doubted at times my parents love but as I look back nothing stands out…
Dear brothers and sisters, As I am sitting next to my window, I can’t believe how warm and nice today is. What a blessing it is to enjoy this kind of weather we have. But for the Samaritan woman that Jesus met at the well probably wasn’t too fond of the Mediterranean heat at high…
Dear friends, “Rejoice always; pray without ceasing; in everything give thanks; for this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus!” Thanksgiving isn’t a once-a-year celebration for anyone who calls themselves a disciple of the Lord Jesus. It should be a daily reality! I can almost hear someone somewhere saying, “Glen, you have no idea about what I…
Dear Friends, By now most of us have heard of someone we know who has suffered loss due to the “raging fires!” Questions abound when tragedies like Houston, Florida, Puerto Rico, Mexico, Las Vegas and now Northern CA take place! Answers however are in short supply! The word “fire” is mentioned 519 times in my…
Dearly beloved, Who are you hanging out with? Does it really matter? If you are a parent, are you at all concerned about your children’s friends? Years ago, I memorized this verse: “He who walks with wise men will be wise, but the companion of fools will suffer harm” Proverbs 13:20 Wisdom in the Old…
