Consider Autumn....Greenport 2009




Reds, Golds and Greens. The Crisp air heralds winter's early coming. Funny Giggle Pumpkin Patches. Storybook Sunflower Fields .....Falling leaves calling, "Today the Harvest." Stop and smell Autumn Along the way....What a wonderful Maker.

Creation Yields to the Master's master plan....Season's Change. Do the tree's cry in fear that winter is soon to come? Does the grass whine that the Sun is too hot? Do the Spring flowers refuse to bloom? All go on unencumbered their yielded being at rest. Why don't we?

Consider the lilies how they grow: they toil not, they spin not; and yet I say unto you, that Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these. Luke 12:27

When Patriotism Becomes Worship and We Don’t Even Notice

  https://baptistnews.com/article/when-patriotism-becomes-worship-and-we-dont-even-notice/?fbclid=IwQ0xDSwLYuSdleHRuA2FlbQIxMQABHp_DyT3kMbTGShsQLE2CBHujma7IgZdGW2mWRBFeeU8lOUruC4WCj1vgEFFL_aem_U7lr3050XPUiM7WLAs0pJg “When Patriotism becomes Worship and we don’t even notice.” So grateful to find this article I sort of think it found me laugh a lot. What other people do is none of my business but for years I’ve been wrestling with some of the trends and level of politics and patriotism within the church. . But this article speaks my language it resonates with my spirit and shares my concerns. So for now, all Is at rest and Jesus He’s The only answer. Maybe someone out there feels the same way I do. I hope this post finds you and this article encourages your heart like it did mine. You aren’t crazy  Pray 🙏 That’s why you see it the way you do.

Walked into an office this morning playing over the speakers was the  60’s classic song , Bridge over Troubled Water, by Simon and Garfunkel. Love it. Just in time for the last half ending that crescendos n swells beautifully. Common song, heard it a gazillion times but this time I Sat quietly and really listened.  Like a Bridge over Troubled Water I will lay me down, Like a bridge over troubled water I will ease your mind.  No not a Christian song …..but worshipping Jesus regardless. Reminded again how Christ through his redemption on Calvary paid the ultimate price and  was Himself the bridge who laid Himself down so I can be at peace with God. I have all access to the throne of grace because of the blood of the Lamb shed for me. Once I was at enmity with God enemies antagonistic but now He calls me Friend.(Colossians 1:21, John 15:13) And because of His Amazing love, sacrifice and Resurrection I can live in His strength today, I can live with joy and hope in the m...

Just Thinkin’

 A friend posted this meme below today and I it stirred some thoughts:  "Stop blaming women for falling for the wrong men. The truth is, some men pretend to be someone they're not from the start." My counselor years ago said something so wise: When people begin their relationships, they are on their best behavior. It takes time to see what people are really made of. It takes time to observe How people react when they’re under pressure , how they deal with their anger,  how they speak to people, how they talk about people. How they speak about the Lord. What do they do with their time and their money. What is the substantive character of that individual? Sometimes in the midst of the feelings and wanting to be in love, I think most of us wear rose colored glasses. We see people the way we wanna see them. But if we get past those Gush feelings and really hear their hearts it is there it really is ….who they truly down deep are. I look back on previous relationsh...
