A PROPER BURIAL
“Are you sure He’s dead?” “A soldier pierced His side. He never flinched. The spirit has left Him. Yes, He’s dead.” “What do we do now? We can’t leave Him there. Tomorrow’s Sabbath.” Joseph looked around. His glance landed on the tomb he just had completed. “I’ll see if Pilate will give me permission to… Continue reading A PROPER BURIAL
The summertime price for living in Texas
August in Texas is a challenge for most of us. This summer hasn’t been as bad as previous ones, but we’re beginning to feel at home now. 97 degrees is the average high temperature for this time of year. I’m grateful for every day we’ve stayed below 90 thus far. We’ve been near or at… Continue reading The summertime price for living in Texas
AN ELDER SEEKER
“Do you really want to see Him this much?” Nicodemus wrapped his outer cloak over his shoulders. “I need to speak to Jesus face-to-face in order to see if He’s the One we’re to wait for. The Council can’t agree on doing this officially, so I must go at night. Even though it feels like… Continue reading AN ELDER SEEKER
Faithfulness Rewarded
Simeon awoke with a smile on his face. “In my calculations it’s been forty days since the angels appeared to the shepherds near Bethlehem. Are You coming today, my Lord?” A peace filled his soul as he dressed and ate breakfast. “Yes, today I shall see my redeemer face-to-face.” He left his cane by the… Continue reading Faithfulness Rewarded

A hand on each side startled her. Flour went everywhere, including her hair. She spun around and found her husband smiling from ear-to-ear. She noticed… Continue reading A DELAYED BLESSING
Okay, I admit it. I’m socially challenged.
Events have made it so I finally have to make a public admission. “My name is Wade and I’m socially challenged.” There, I’ve said it. Now watch my video where I explain why I can’t hide my ineptness any longer. Keep smiling. Wade
AN INITIAL DOUBT
Zacharias strained to see the lots as they were cast to see who would be chosen to present the incense offering in the temple. It was a long time since he’d been in the mix this far along. Others started chanting his name to try to get the lots to cast in his favor. He… Continue reading AN INITIAL DOUBT
A KING’S DECREE
“I’m amazed and delighted at how well your precincts are complying with the new tax laws being imposed on them, Daniel. I usually get some skimming from those in charge. What makes you so different from the others?” Darius sat forward on his throne. Daniel shrugged. “My God won’t allow me to take what doesn’t… Continue reading A KING’S DECREE
GOD’S SPIRIT WITHIN
Daniel spent the evening in prayer. Tonight was a particularly difficult time of struggle. The sounds from the party were echoing in his chamber. His heart had been torn from his chest earlier when he heard King Belshazzar yell out, “Bring the chalices from the temple in Judah.” “LORD God have mercy on their souls.… Continue reading GOD’S SPIRIT WITHIN
