First Blog

Greetings Friends,

Today I will be 'random'... as my son so often says.  This is the day we kick off this 'new-fangled' blogging.  Whether it is written with a #2 pencil or typed neatly on a laptop, the bottom line is to communicate ideas.  Who said they can't teach an old dog new tricks? 

You see our world is actually shaped with ideas.  Words become the tools which help to build the future. Much can be said about how we speak to one another... and those who look up to us. According to James, our tongue (words) can actually bless or curse.  I hope this blog and every blog I write hereafter is uplifting at the end of the day.

 It is no wonder God gave to us His Word.  Words are forever!  The Word of God is eternal and everything within it is intended to shape us, our families, our minds, our churches and ultimately the world!  The more we here His words, the more like Him we become.  Be careful to whom you lend your hearing!

The Word of God will never pass away.  When God brings change to you and me through new concepts, or revelations, don't resist that!  Go for it!  Who gave to us the idea that God was finished talking?  He continues to speak to mankind.  What is great is that we can know it is Him by weighing what He is saying to us personally against the Bible.  If it aligns...then it is right.  If it does not align...then, "Houston, we have a problem!"

Blessings on all who signed on to this very first blog.  Let me hear from you.  Together we will grow in Grace.  I will try to get something to you at least two times per week.  Allow God's Word to shape your thinking today.  

Adios for now,
Pastor T
