Family & Friends

By preacherperry

In church today we opened our hearts , about how we felt about strong holds in our lives. Sunday school went into the preaching hour, and the whole time of confession came out, and each and everyone shared what was in their heart. Sometimes when people confess their faults or troubles in their lives , it seems like a load is lifted right off their shoulders. So the acid indigestion ceases after a whole night of none sleep. But the Lord says the truth will set you free, when Dr. King told the nation his I had a dream speech. I was just a young boy when he said his speech but it stuck. You know he was right about a lot of things, and he has affected today's world in a most wonderful way. How about that, New Orleans football team, they won again. They seem to pull it out in every different way they can. They stay focused on their objective, and that is a winner attitude, and everyone should think that way, and if we did theywould be a lot of succeeding going on instead of more failures than anything.

On the way to Christmas

I was reflecting on the scriptures we have been studying on Monday nights. A lot of people think that Mark and Luke were Disciples, because they wrote a gospel. Mark by what the commentaries say, that he was a young boy at the time of Jesus. But there seemed to be a lot of functions held in his mothers house. They also seemed to be a wealthy family for that time. So I believe that Mark was converted to Christianity as a young child. Luke as we know went around asking questions of a lot of people, and writing what he was told by the Disciples and other people. He followed Jesus with blind faith, because he came along after Jesus death. Also he was a well educated man for that time in history. I just thought I would share these facts with you. Now that I finally had time to just sit down and relax, read some on a book I'm reading, " Living With Confidence In A Chaotic World " by Dr. David Jeremiah I would recommend this book to read, and "What In The World Is Going On, " Two great reads! My son is playing some crazy game on his PS3 about some digging machine, it looks like a Squid digging and blowing up everything. I look up and boy am I confused ??? Well it's not for me. Christmas is less than a month away so brush off your plastic and get out the green, because you are about to go into debt for another three years just for this Christmas. Wasn't it much easier when we worshiped Jesus birth and let the Wise men bring the gifts instead of everything getting so commercial.
