The Gift of Music

669) I have been fortunate to have had many years of work singing with a professional voice instructor who also is a Christian. When I watched him at work, the glow of worship and praise radiates from his face. Music/singing involves all of the senses and it is possible to sing using everything within you.

God’s Navigation

668) What we see is far from all there is. I had a professor in college that told us that the human eye only sees 1/10 of 1% of what there is to see. For example, we do not see germs, cells, and oxygen. The human eye also cannot see the spirit world, such as

Seeing Isn’t Always Believing

667) When I was a child in Sunday school, I often thought that if I saw the miraculous things that God did in the Bible, I would whole-heartedly believe everything God said or did. I even went to the point of thinking, “Well, no wonder so and so believed. I would too if I saw

Human Nature

666) One of the good things about life is that we cannot control other people and one of the difficult things of life is, we cannot control people. It’s easy to sit back and not worry about others when they are treating you well, but what about when they choose to treat you poorly? In

Not Knowing

665) Have you ever considered what effect it would have on your life if you knew ahead of time what would happen in the years to come? Would knowing these things beforehand make your life easier or more difficult? (And for this question, no cheating in your musings–it’s you know everything or none, before it

Taking the High Road Isn’t Easy

663) There are times in this life when circumstances, illness, stress, and strained family relationships become unbearable. It’s also possible these days for someone to choose to make a stand when the push of a society that does not run with God’s laws and principles. This taking of the high road sounds good , but

We Are Living Books

662) It’s easy for us to be overly concerned with our words and actions. This is an important thing. But sometimes we can forget that our day-to-day words and actions speak loudly. I read somewhere years ago that you may be the only Bible some people read. Genesis 47 illustrates this when Joseph goes to

Admitting We are Wrong

661) Admitting I am wrong is sometimes a struggle. It’s not because I don’t want to “own” the poor judgment, word or action; it’s because I’m afraid that if I bring to others’ attention my error, then they would have nothing to do with me. This is because deep down, I can sometimes think there

God Loves When We Don’t Deserve It

660) The life of Joseph, as recorded in Genesis 41, is my all-time favorite one to study with the exception of the life of Jesus. I’ve even named my protagonist, Joseph, in my up-coming novel, The Bottle House, in honor of Jacob’s favorite son. I admire so much of Joseph’s character. If anyone had a
