Janie and I have been married 12,895 days. Every single one of those days I have acted like a happily married man. It has not been difficult to do so for I have daily reminders that I am married. I have a ring on my finger. I have clothes which were formerly dirty that every day show up in my closet which I did not clean nor put there. Janie will just not let me forget that I am married so every day I have remembered and acted accordingly. There has never been a day in the past 12,895 that I was ashamed of or tried to hide the fact that I was a married man. I have been a born again child of God for some 16,986 days. I just wish that I had acted like I was a child of God all those days. I wish that I could say that I had never forgotten that I was a christian. I wish that I could say that there was never a day in the past 16,986 that I was ashamed of or tried to hide the fact that I was a saved person. Why has it been so difficult to remember that I am bought with a price and am not my own? Why would I ever be ashamed of the one who died for me? Why have I treated my Lord and Savior so badly when every day He feeds me and cares for me. He sustains me and provides for my every need yet I give him a half hearted service. Lord, I am not worthy of the least of thy blessings.
Tomorrow we celebrate Easter. Jesus is alive and He doeth all things well. I am looking forward to the services tomorrow. Click on the link in the right hand column and listen to our broadcast live. The picture is one I took of our auditorium from the sound room. It is the view that my son and his family see when they watch our services via SKYPE. God bless you.
