The preacher called out, “God is good”, and the people responded, “All the time!”  Father, thank You for being a merciful, loving, forgiving God, and for being good “all the time”. I ask for prayers; I have a funeral Friday🙏 and homecoming on Sunday at Lake Blackshear Baptist Church. Please come celebrate with us on Sunday.🎉We know that God is good, all the time! Amen!

Buzz Aldrin took communion on the moon. He later wrote that as he looked at the earth from the moon, it was a big blue marble, and that he was just a speck among the billions of people, but that God knew him and loved him. Ever feel as you’re just a “speck”? Remember the 60’s book, “I’m all right, because God made me and God don’t make no junk”! Father, we rejoice in being Your special creation, thank You for loving us,✝️ amen.

Oh, we got blessed. A sweet lady in our church brought us some zipper peas and some peaches for “dinner”(some call it lunch🙄). We had peas, and our daughter made cornbread and peach cobbler.🎉 I’ve got a ton of prayer needs, for healing, for comfort in sorrow, and for people to be saved.🙏🙏 Our homecoming at Lake Blackshear Baptist Church is this Sunday. Please come worship and celebrate with us, an awesome lunch to follow,🎉amen!!

It was a day, yesterday. A church member’s sister-in-law died unexpectedly, her husband, a pastor, had passed five months ago.✝️ Then I got a phone call that a faithful servant of the church had slipped away and that her husband was back in the hospital.🙏 A third call came telling that another faithful member’s son-in-law was in serious condition, still another faithful member’s son has surgery tomorrow.✝️ Father, they need You, oh, we need You. Please help us, only You can, amen.

Read this: “God made today for a reason, so take joy in today”. It’s a good thought, but sometimes problems, sadness, illness weights us down so heavy that it’s difficult to have joy. Father, that’s when we bring our burdens to You, that You would deliver us. We trust You with today and our eternity, thank You, amen.

Hump Day!🎉I remind our children each Wed. of this. Friday is our goal…then the weekend. Is this what our life is all about? Remember, we are not “accidents”; we were all created by the Father for His purpose. Life will never be complete until we find it and fulfill it.✝️ Father, please guide us today in Your path and way, so that we may be complete, amen.

On my way to coffee and prayer with the men,🎉 it’s awesome to sit around the table and hear these men pour out theirs hearts to God. All men  are invited. Stop by on your way to work, grab a cup of (army) coffee and a prayer, then be on your way.🎉 Today, let’s all find a time of prayer. Father, we need to talk with You, amen.

 “Oh, say can you see, by the dawn’s early light?”🇱🇷Yes, I can, and it doesn’t look too promising.✝️ I believe that God brought our nation into being to be the mightiest missionary force ever. Now under assault by Satan, we’ve slipped away from our roots.  Oh, Father, we repent, forgive us, restore us, in Jesus’ name, amen!✝️

Enjoyed being with my sister & brother-in-law at Ideal yesterday, I went to a prayer breakfast with them at Ideal Baptist Church. I remember VBS there as a boy. I went to our family graves. I wept and prayed.✝️ Oh, thank You, Father, for another day of life, help us use it wisely for You. Most of all, thank You for saving a wretch like me, amen.
#comehomeatlbbc

On my way to Ideal to visit my family’s graves, I’ll cry🥲(I’ll soon be with them): “Precious Memories, how they linger, how they ever flood my soul”. Oh Father, thank You for the precious memories, thank You for this moment. Please come back soon, we’re homesick.✝️ See you tomorrow in worship, right? Amen.

Quite a day yesterday, I had a 130 mile round trip to the Dublin VA hospital; I got soaked on visitation (thank you Father for the rain; it was worth it).✝️ Last night, I got a call from a precious lady in our church that her father had passed away peacefully.🙏🙏 Today, Father, our plates are full, may Your Holy Spirit guide us, help us. We can’t do it without You, amen.
#comehomeatlbbc

Oh Father, thank You for the rain, every drop. We like to think that we are masters of our lives. We have so much technology, awesome medical advances (only because God made it possible). But as smart as we think we are, only God can send rain✝️. Father, again thank You for the rain, please send more, amen.

Read this: a church asked an older preacher for their revival. He was full of the Holy Spirit. It was an awesome revival; many were saved with many rededications. At the close, someone said that it was an awesome revival, but at your age, you need to put on the brakes. His reply, “I’m not a brakeman; I’m a fireman!” Lord, help us be “firemen and women" for you, amen.

Question: I ask myself, when the Lord returns will He be pleased with me?  I try hard, but sometimes I feel as if it’s not enough.🙄 Then I remember it’s faithfulness that He asks of us. Lord, You have blessed and delivered me; I want to be faithful, please help me, in Jesus’ name, amen.

Oh, what an awesome day Saturday was with 25 on our float. We had fun, and we shared about Jesus and our church!🎉
