I Am Resting My Entire Destiny On Jesus

OK, so I gotta say something.

Today I was speaking to someone I have known for years. Let's call her Lucy!

As we were talking, Lucy essentially told me that she did not think that someone should be able to write about their personal faith in Christ or "religious stuff" on Facebook. Lucy told me that someone she knew was doing this ... and that this someone professed to be a "born-again" Christian. In fact, this "born-again" Christian was even shoveling her driveway for her during this recent snow storm. Lucy found his Facebook page and saw that he was speaking about "religious stuff" and she said she thought that it should not be allowed and that it "creeped" her out.

Lucy has told me a couple of times that she believes in Christ so I was really kinda surprised.

I told Lucy for about the hundreth time that I was one of those "born-again freaks"! I told Lucy that I often speak about my faith in Christ on this photo website. I even showed Lucy exactly where to locate my words about my faith in Christ. Maybe I did this so I could creep her out on a more regular basis.

I told you that to tell you this.

Before Jesus ascended into heaven, it is recorded that he came to the disciples to commission them. In Matthew 28:18b-20, it reads:

"All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you. And behold, I am with you always, to the end of the age."
Jesus was saying, "Hey, ... Now go tell the world what you have seen and what you have heard. Don't worry because I am going with you and I will be there with you to the very end".

Jesus didn't say ... "Hey, It would be cool if you mentioned that you thought I was a pretty nice guy to a few people".

Now I told you that to tell you this.

You may think I am a complete fool! And if you wish to mock me I will post your reply. I am not trying to edit out objectors as long as you aren't profane.

I am telling you that I believe in Christ. I love Him! And I want there to be enough evidence in my life to convict me of being one of His believers. But, if I say I believe in Him and ... and I really do ... shouldn't I want to tell you? Even if it's on Facebook?

Folks, ... The reason I want to tell you about Christ is because I really believe it. I really believe that YOU must receive Christ as your Savior. Some people may not tell you that so directly ... but that is what I believe because that is what the Bible says.

Jesus Christ sets people free today. I am a flawed man. I am not smarter than you. I am not cooler than you. Take a look at my photo, I am surely not better looking than you! The only thing I have going for me eternally speaking is the blood of Christ has covered my sin. I AM FORGIVEN! Praise the Lord Jesus Christ!

Don't look at me as a model of how to live. I will let you down. The Bible says we are to look at Christ as our example on how to live.

Lucy! I care about ya! Don't live your life so close to me for all these years and miss the message of Christ. Jesus is the way, the truth and life. John 14:6.

God bless you all.

I Looked For You Every Day!


It's you, it's really you! Where did you go? I'm so glad you're home. I missed you so much. I looked for you every day. Please don't go away again. Oh, it's really you! You're home!

You can not imagine what goes through a dogs head when he sees the boss is home again. Tara is with us for her summer break and her dog Josh is in love again.

Thank you to all of you who serve and served our country. Thank you for the days you missed your families and even your dogs on our behalf. We are forever grateful to you for this sacrifice. Our prayers are with you and with the families of those who never returned.

May God bless you all with the knowledge of Christ and the power of His resurrection.

Upgraded Our Rat Terrier To A Ram Terrier


The new dog is rather peaceful as long as people (including us) stay off his lawn. Bucky doesn't come when you call his name. Bucky comes when you are within 40 yards. Bucky can surprise you in a few horrific strides. Thump ... Ouch!!! Call 911.
The postman has decided to deliver only once every two to three weeks and he never bothers to carry junk mail any more.
No need to cut grass, less barking, and fewer bills. Peace of mind.
