God wants us to walk in light and not to stumble. God’s wisdom is sound and shows us how to walk safely.

People like to get the “last word.” What was Jesus’ last word on earth?
Sherry and I went to a holiday party last night for our school faculty and staff. It was fun to chat with co-workers and get to know them and their spouses better. Did you know that WE are also “co-workers” with God and other believers as we preach the gospel to reconcile men and women back to God?

E. W. Bullinger has an appendix in The Companion Bible that shows how Genesis finds its complement in the Apocalypse.

Have you ever stubbed your toe because you had no “night light”? God wants us to see where we are going spiritually. Jesus told us about this.
I’ve applied for a teaching job in North Carolina where we are moving to. I want to teach because I love a learning environment and to see young people grow into noble and well-rounded adults. I also enjoy working with other educators who do the same. But whether or not I get this job doesn’t change God’s power, love, or kindness to me. I want to do His will, and I know that, as my loving Father, He will meet my every need. How do I know that? Because He promises it in Philippians 4:19: “But my God shall supply all your need according to his riches in glory by Christ Jesus.”
There’s an old saying: “It’s not whether you win or lose, it’s how you play the game.” That may be true in one sense, but when we do things properly—God is faithful to reward us. There are consequences [positive or negative] for what is done. That is never truer than in the case of Jesus Christ, God’s only-begotten Son, and his archenemy, Lucifer.
