The 2nd letter to Theophilus

Luke paced his study. The new parchments arrived ahead of schedule. Notes were organized and waiting. Winter was settling in so travel for the next few months was out of the question. Time was on his side now. “Why is it always difficult to begin a writing? I know once I get into this it… Continue reading The 2nd letter to Theophilus

Okay, what IS the next holiday now?

The Christmas decorations have been on display in many stores for well over a month now. If I remember right Halloween came after that time…and we just ate a big meal with turkey as the main course. Why don’t I remember summer lately. Did I skip Labor Day somehow? There was something to do with… Continue reading Okay, what IS the next holiday now?

Judas stepped in front of Jesus and pointed at the temple structure. “Have You ever seen anything so marvelous? The gold is incredible.

I am now a magicmatician!

I have video proof that I just added a new title to my resume of life skills. I’m officially a magicmatician. Don’t believe me? Watch for yourself and see if I’m wrong. You’ll also see how sugar is like the Holy Spirit. Taste and see for yourself. Keep smiling.   Wade

“He’s coming. He’s coming. I need to get closer to see Him.” Zacchaeus tried to push between people on the outskirts of the crowd. An elbow came down on his forehead, knocking him to the ground. “Back off, buzzard. Jesus isn’t here for you of all people.” Zacchaeus stood up and brushed himself off.

I’m being squeezed and baked into the image of Christ

And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love Him, who have been called according to His purpose. For those God foreknew He also predestined to be conformed to the likeness of His Son, that He might be the firstborn among many brothers.

THEIR FAITH

Martha walked from the livingroom to the kitchen. People covered nearly every square foot of space. She went outside for fresh air. A man ran up to her. “Jesus is coming with His men.” Her feet carried her to the city gate. She found Jesus there. “Lord, if You’d been here Lazarus would still be… Continue reading THEIR FAITH
