Message about Heaven on Sunday,βοΈ it’s been the subject many times over the past 50 years.π Heard that the pro golfer, who won the Masters, gave his testimony on network TV. “It’s not me, it’s Jesus”.π I’m not a big golf fan, but I’m a big fan of his.π Let’s follow suit, when given the opportunity, let’s tell about Jesus.

While reading my Sunday School lesson, this statement got my attention, “This world is not our home; it’s just a temporary stretch of the journey toward eternity”. Old gospel song said it this way, “This world is not my home, l’m just a-passing through”! At my age I’m keenly aware of this.βοΈ Are you packed up? Ready to go? Amen!

Woke up with a plate full on my mind. I have a busy weekend: church outreach BBQ, church working the Grits Festival, worship today and tomorrow at the nursing homes, and a baptism on Sunday. Oh, we need Psalm 46:10: “Be still, and know that I am God”! Take a moment today for that, amen.

Sibling Day was yesterday. I called my sister, try to everyday.β€οΈWe had two brothers who died at birth.βοΈ She’s the “brains in the outfit”. She graduated “Magna Cum Laude”, and I graduated ”lawdy, lawdy”.π Family is everything, God created the family before the tabernacle or the temple. The family is the building block of society.βοΈ Let’s draw close to our families while we can. My wife and our children, I thank God for them.βοΈ Father, thank You for giving us our families, amen.

Life can be tough.βοΈ Awful things can come our way, we pray and He hears and answers them.π Yes, no, later on, something else -π I admit that I don’t always understand what He is doing, but He’s God! l’ve trusted Him with my eternity.βοΈ Oh I feel that eternity grows closer each day: do you? Are you prepared, amen?

Eclipse of the Sun was yesterday, πthere won’t be another in my lifetime.βΉοΈ My mind went back to Genesis 1:3, “and God said, “let there be light, and there was light”.βοΈ God is totally in charge.βοΈ In Mark 15 there was total darkness from noon till 3 p.m. It was not an eclipse, but a supernatural darkness as Jesus takes all of our sins upon Himself. For the first time in all eternity, the Father and the Son were separated.βοΈ Matthew 27:46: “My God, why have You forsaken Me?” But They are now One for eternity,βοΈ thank You, Lord. Amen!
