The Wind Beneath the Wings

mikeandsus

Mike and I just had the privilege of attending Stonebriar Community Church in Frisco, Texas, where Chuck Swindoll is the senior pastor. Pastor Chuck taught extensively from Romans 12: 3 – 8 this past Sunday. When he dug into verses 6 – 8 about spiritual gifts, he said “the giver is the wind beneath the wings of the visionary.” I especially liked that word picture of how important giving is and how the giver is a part of the ministry. Do I know a ministry that speaks to my heart? Do I support that ministry in prayer and financially? If … Continue reading The Wind Beneath the Wings

I’m so excited right this minute that I could burst! I just created a Facebook group for The Sower. I am hoping you will find this a great place to talk with other Christians about sharing your faith. Just look for The Sower in Groups. I hope you will join me there. I also finished transferring all Xanga posts to the official WordPress site. I started this transfer almost nine months ago. The tags and searches on the WordPress site should make it easy for you to find old posts or topics that interest you. Continue reading New Facebook and WordPress Sites

Witnessing to the Extreme

I stood at the foot of a wall of colorful Crocs. A rainbow of foam shoes reached twenty feet high, almost to the ceiling. “Now, how am I going to be able to try on a pair?” I thought. Just then, Adam arrived. “May I help you?” he asked. “I’ve read that Crocs are good for heel pain,” I explained, “and they fit differently than normal shoes.” “That’s right,” Adam agreed. “Can I get a pair for you to try?” I pointed to a conservative pearl-colored pair next to the electric-teal-colored ones that I really liked. I mentally pictured Adam … Continue reading Witnessing to the Extreme

While They Work

mikeandsus

I try to be aware of the fact that the person I am often chatting with is at work. I do not want to get them in trouble by talking too long. Most of the time with clerks of course, I do not have a very long conversation, especially if someone is waiting in line behind me. Only once have I continued a conversation while a clerk started helping the next customer. I normally would not do that. If no one is in line behind me, I would like to get in the habit of seeing if we can talk … Continue reading While They Work

Turning Back

mikeandsus

I chatted a bit with Mo as I bought salmon at the fresh fish counter. I turned and headed down the aisle to check out. I was not even halfway down the aisle when I sensed God prompting me to go back and give Mo a tract. I started a few mental arguments. “I will look silly going back now!” and “This will be awkward!” God kept up the pressure and I knew before I reached the end of the aisle that I had to turn around. Fortunately, Mo was still at the counter and was not waiting on anyone. … Continue reading Turning Back
