Having spent a year’s tour of duty separated from my family, I know the pain of separation for an extended period.  Special days such as birthdays or holidays were the hardest. There were many wonderful experiences during that year, but I always knew that I was there temporarily and it was not home. I was homesick for my family and home. I longed to return to my wife and three precious children. I once went to a hospital in Bend, Oregon, to vi

For when I am weak, then I am strong.”   Back in the 1970’s I seemed to have it made. I was Deputy Director of the Idaho Law Enforcement Planning Commission. The position paid well and I was offered a similar position with a Federal agency. But God had other plans for me. I felt God’s call and took a part-time position with my home church. The pay was less and the hours longer, but it was God’s call and I could only obey. Since that time I have felt weak and inad

They had a very important task to do.  Every-one  was sure that  Some-one  would do it.  Any-one  could have done it, but No-one  did it in the end.   Some-one  was angry because it could have been  Every-one's  job.   Every-one thought that  Any-one  coul

God makes every effort to speak to us but we fill our life with such clutter and confusion that His voice goes unheard. A judge I once worked for delighted in telling the tale of two deaf men who appeared before a deaf judge.The plaintiff charged that the defendant owed him $100.  The defendant (not hearing) objected that he didn’t even own a dog so how could it have bitten the plaintiff.  The equally deaf judge looke

I can recall First Mate Bob introducing the program after a fog horn sounded. The quartet then would sing the words of this week’s hymn. As we struggle through the storms of life it is a wonderful assurance that God provides a haven of rest where we can safely escape the wild waves of adversity. I thank God that many times in my life I have found God’s Haven of rest for my own soul.  In the book of Psalms, David refers to the storms of life. He was

Let him show by good conduct that his works are done in the meekness of wisdom.”   I once heard a professor illustrate walking the talk by describing a scene in which a father was instructing his children on the importance of always telling the truth. He quoted from Proverbs 14:5;  “ A faithful witness does not lie,  but a false witness will utter lies.” There was a knock at the door and the father went to answer it. What he told the man at the door was not the truth. After the man left the father returned to his instruction. He recited;  “A fai

Many people that I have known across the years had once been persuaded to get tattooed. As the years passed, however, things changed and they now wished they did not bear the indelible marks of their folly. God, on the other hand, has joyously engraved our names on the palms of His hands. It is much more permanent than a mere tattoo. It is more like being gouged deep into the very fiber of His being. He knows us and loves us and has died for us. Many times I have ob

I once taught a college class and wanted to demonstrate the danger of relying on the response of others. I thoroughly washed a perfume bottle and completely purged it of any odor. I reminded the class that it was dangerous to rely on the responses of others. I was now about to catch them off guard. I instructed th

I see the reflection of an old man staring back at me. How could this aging have taken place? The answer is one day at a time! Along the hallway I am able to view photographs of parents and grandparents on both sides of the family. It comes as a shock to realize that I am now older than some of them when they went to be with the Lord. Wow! That is shocking! Getting older is not someth
