When Jesus comes to town


Used canes go on sale cheap!

Slightly used coffins are available!

Celebration abounds as water becomes wine!

The depressed and possessed rejoice!

People see creation and their loved ones faces for the first time!

The proud and religious are humbled to grace!

Sinners stand and tell of God’s goodness and forgiveness!

Children, some for the first time, know they are loved!

Women are valued and serve as ministers of grace!

Men find strength to be husbands, dads and servants!

Value is seen in all suffering because God uses suffering to redeem!

Community is built as people learn to love as they are loved!

Swords are turned into implements to harvest God’s fields!

Houses become homes and homes become places of worship!

“Them” becomes those we need to share the love of Jesus with!

Chains of sin and addiction fall away and souls are set free!

Valleys in life become paths to mountain tops of Glory!

Hope and love become the most common four letter words!

The unclean and the outcast are freed to live a Godly life!


Sadly, when Jesus comes to town evil intensifies, darkness lashes out at God’s children because evil is too cowardly to attack their Father and the demons seek to deafen ears, blind eyes and darken hearts!


And finally, when Jesus comes to town He lives in their hearts until they come to live forever with God!

(Has Jesus come to your town?)

(Has Jesus come to you?)

September 3, 2017 Sunday             Even after a long Saturday I was able to go to Asbury and receive Communion and to worship my Lord and My Love.   We stayed for Sunday School and Peggy had a great lesson from Dr Kalas’ book Parables From the Backside Volume 2 .   A great class, a great teacher and a great book.               In the afternoon I tried to sleep but just was able to rest some.   VERY worn out by being so busy but it was good.   Bonnie remembers when we would visit Gramps, her grandfather; he would say that he would enjoy the memory of our visit for weeks.   Now I understand what he meant.   So many wonderful memories nourish me every day.

April 3, 2018 Tuesday “But Mary stood outside by the tomb weeping, and as she wept she stooped down and looked into the tomb. And she saw two angels in white sitting, one at the head and the other at the feet, where the body of Jesus had lain. Then they said to her, “Woman, why are you weeping?” She said to them, “Because they have taken away my Lord, and I do not know where they have laid Him.” Now when she had said this, she turned around and saw Jesus standing there , and did not know that it was Jesus. Jesus said to her, “Woman, why are you weeping? Whom are you seeking?” She, supposing Him to be the gardener, said to Him, “Sir, if You have carried Him away, tell me where You have laid Him, and I will take Him away.” Jesus said to her, “Mary!” She turned and said to Him, “Rabboni!” (which is to say, Teacher). Jesus said to her, “Do not cling to Me, for I have not yet ascended to My Father; but go to My brethren and say to them, ‘I am ascending to My Father and your Father, an...
