I’d like to take a minute today and wish my firstborn, one of my sons Kenny, a very happy 44th birthday. He’s a special kid for sure, and I love him!!! He’s into metal detecting, it’s a great hobby for sure, some of the things that he has found are unbelievable. He found a Dial A Story coin that I had as part of my ministry back in the 80s, buried out in our backyard about 8 inches down, unbelievable,when he brought that into the house to show me!!!’ It been preserved all these years,and only Kenny, could have found it!!!! You know that God wants you to explore His Word in the same way, expecting to find some thing, and then to treasure it when you do. That’s why we read our Bibles folks📖Happy Birthday Kenny 🎂🎉🎊 I love you, I know you’ve explored your life and invited Jesus to be the center of all you do!!! Praise The Lord. Let’s all explore The Word this week!! Continued prayers for Kelli Kris and Maverick, Kenny‘s family as well, they’re getting testing done today🙏🙏🙏 Thank you so much !!!! Have a great Tuesday !!! I’ve had the utmost privilege of working side-by-side with Kenny for about 30 years now, what a privilege !!! Thank Ya Jesus

Couldn’t help but think of the transformation of Saul to Paul this morning, as I read out of The Word. Here’s a guy that threatened to kill Christ’s disciples, and wipe out any new Christians, Little did he know when he planned on taking a road trip to Damascus, it would change him forever. We have a God who loves us so much, that He sent His Son for our sacrifice. Abraham at 100 years old, was willing and obedient to take Isaac up a mountain, even have him carry the wood, and sacrifice him. Paul became an Abraham, he listened to what God wanted him to do, I can’t help but think about this today, God knew He was going to have to sacrifice His Son, I often wonder, why didn’t He provide another way, like he did for Isaac, with the ram, caught in the thicket by its horns!! After Jesus got Paul’s attention, we all know what he became for Christ. Let’s be obedient today, put on the full armor of God and become a Abraham and Paul “ In Obedience”!!’ Continued prayer, especially for Kelli today, and Kris & Maverick, muchly appreciated!! Have a great Lords Day!!
🙏🙏📖. PRAYERS SAID, BIBLES READ !!! Got a text early this morning from my daughter-in-law Holly, a raccoon was in their live trap and she was just afraid to pick it up and take it somewhere, so good old grandpa came to the rescue :-) When I got there the little fella out to his new place, he liked it immediately fella to his new home, pond, wide open areas, he thought this is better than where I was :-) Have you ever looked at life that way, that this is better than what I thought it was, we sure should if we know Christ as Savior. Life can be a trap, it can snare us with no problem whatsoever, but the release of forgiven sin, and a new start is unbelievable. Rocky good luck at your new home, I think you’re gonna like it :-) and for those of us who feel like we’re close to a trap, get away from it because they work :-) TGIF 🙏🙏 THANK GOD IM FORGIVEN
Happy birthday to my brother-in-law Jeff, and continue prayers for Kris Kelli Maverick and Ken are appreciated!! Keep those prayers said and your Bible read, have a great Friday If you have time today, which I hope you do, is to look up Micah 6:8, and see if you can find the three ingredients that this wise profit gives us to follow 👍👍 It doesn’t matter in what order you mix these three together, or try to follow, you’ll be amazed how good this “dish” turns out :-) The three ingredients of course are: do what’s right, show love and mercy, and walk humbly with God. A very good recipe 🤗🤗 Continued prayers for Kristopher Kelli Maverick & Ken S !!!!! I really like that humble pie stuff !!!!!!
Have a great Wednesday, keep those prayers said and those Bibles read, thanks for checking in 🙏🙏📖 I remember the first time I heard the phrase “zig-zag” I couldn’t help but say to myself, what the heck is that :-) I learned through life as I grew up,with children around me, you better learn how to zig and zag,with them, so you can help them back onto THE STRAIGHT AND NARROW :-) If you look the words up you will find that it means going in opposite direction pretty quickly!!! I know when I’m ziggin, and I know when I’m zaggin, It will show up in your living testimony,which your children by the way, are watching like a hawk!!! The straight and narrow, of course is the best way to go, so when you see yourself, your children, a loved one, start to zig, or zag, ask The Lord to help you to stay on the right path !!!! You won’t be able to do it without Him 🙏🙏Continued prayers for Kelli Kris Maverick and Ken S. very much appreciated !!!!
In his second chapter to the Philippians, Paul reminds us that we are to do things without complaining, arguing and just basically griping about everything. That’s kind of a tough task in 2020 isn’t it, but Paul recommends to take the highroad and count your blessings. Yesterday, I was fortunate enough to celebrate another Father’s Day with my “4 K’s and grandkids. If I gripe once this week, Lord I pray that you shut my mouth immediately. Let’s all memorize Philippians 2:14 this week, I was once told it takes 17 facial muscles to smile, 27 facial muscles to frown, give your face a break this week :-) Please continue prayers for Kelli Kristopher Maverick and Ken S muchly appreciated. I’m going to go to work, and have a grlpe free day, and count blessings instead. Keep those prayers said and your Bible read 🙏🙏👍👍📖 Have a great Monday
“In My Father’s House there are many mansions, if it were not so, I would’ve told you”, I used this verse that at my Dads funeral, in May 2007, to start the ceremony. What reassurance we have, a Heavenly Father who has prepared a place for us, for those of us who believe. I’m so blessed with four kids, their spouses,and nine grandchildren, I can’t begin to thank The Lord enough. He has prepared a place for me, because of my belief In Him. How about you Dad, are you training your children in the way they should go, and reassure them, there’s a prepared mansion for those of us who do believe. If not,what a great day to remind your children of what God did as our Heavenly Father, and that was, sending HIS SON to die for our sins. Happy Father’s Day !!!!!!!!
After reading out of Deuteronomy chapter 10, I wrote this in one of my journals, “don’t expect yippee I owe cow patty when you’re not walking the walk, and living by faith” God will shut her door right in your face whenever He wants !! WHOA !!!The prophet Nehemiah, reminds us in his first chapter, in order for us to have blessings, you’ve got to keep the Commandments, it’s the only way you can Glorify God. Preaching to myself here this morning, God is a jealous God,don’t put sin between you and Him,it doesn’t work. Continued prayers for Kelli Kristopher Maverick & Ken S !!!! Thank you,thank you,thank you. Enjoy your Saturday, let’s live today like Moses and Nehemiah both, are giving us good instructions through GOD’S WORD
Keep those prayers said and your Bibles read 👍🙏📖 Appreciate you checking in today, out of your busy schedule, “Thee Ole”prayer request list is getting longer :-) If you could continue to pray for Kelli Kristopher Maverick and now, Ken S,at Mayo Clinic, muchly muchly appreciated. Prayer chains are great, and did you know that when you literally say Amen at the end of a prayer, what you’re really saying is “I’ll get back with You Lord” The reason I came up with the name,Table Top Ministries,is because I have a huge table that has nothing on it but what grandkids have made me, coffee cups with their pictures on it, but also open Bibles, open journals, open memory verse books, and the list goes on and on and on, I feel that with me, if it’s out and open, I’m going to use it more, than when it’s shut and hide away 👍👍 Also, have a nice pad of paper and a good pen out ready to go for prayer requests, such as today’s :-) and anything else you feel that you need to do to Glorify God !!! If you start to make a list of what’s important to you, and you leave it out in the open, Yep,it’ll get read :-) You have a great Friday, and can’t Thank You enough for the prayers. TGIF !!! Thank God I’m Forgiven
Keep Those Prayers Said and your BIBLE read!!!I doubt if any of us have been put into a fiery furnace, or a den of lions, for taking the courage to pray in public. But if you ever go out to eat again, and trust being safe at a restaurant, :-) try it 🙏🙏🙏 Have you ever felt bad enough about your sin, that you wanted to rip your clothes right off from your body. Josiah did that in his early 20s, when he discovered the country that he had taken over for as a king, when he was eight years old, had done away with God‘s Word. It was so disturbing to him, he rent the clothes from his body, that he was wearing. I’m going to pray that I can get that feeling, when I screw up,and I go out and do wrong, and get away from God‘s will. That I become so angry with myself, that I want to rip the clothes off that I’m wearing that day. Thanks for the example Josiah, I’m gonna start using it, we’ll see how many T-shirts I have left by the end of summer :-) If you could keep the double down prayers for Kelli and Maverick and Kristopher, so much appreciated. You’re the best, keep those prayers said, and those Bibles read :-) 🙏🙏🙏📖 Have a great Thursday !!!!
