Filling Your Bucket

Read It, Learn It, Live It, Share It

“How precious also are Your thoughts to me, O God!  How vast is the sum of them!  If I should count them, they would outnumber the sand.  When I awake, I am still with You.” – Psalm 139:16-17

He walked across the hot beach on his tip-toes and cringed every time his foot hit the sand.  As he neared the water’s edge, the sand was damp and cooler to the touch, so his walking became normal and his demeanor changed to one of joy and happiness to be here.  With bucket and shovel in tow, he and his sister begin digging into the moist sand, and filling the buckets as the adventure of building sand castles began.  I helped Lisa set up the chairs and blanket just beyond the reach of the encroaching tide, and close enough to the kids to ensure their safety.  As they brought forth their buckets filled to the rim with sand, they dumped them near our blanket forming the corners of their soon to be castle.

Some of the sand stuck to the inside of thde bucket, and created more of a pile of sand rather than a neatly formed structure for the castle corner.  I watched as they would put the bucket back over the top of the sand and try to reshape it, but it would only make it worse.  Finally, disheartened David knocked the pile of sand over in frustration and began once again filling his bucket.  This effort repeated time after time after time, until finally he came over and explained the problem to Lisa and I, with a little bit of whining I must add.  We explained that the sand he was using was too wet and that made it stick to the bucket.  Perhaps he should clean out his bucket and get  sand from a different spot that wasn’t as wet as what he had been using.  He tried this advice and surprisingly it worked.  The forms coming from the buckets took on the shape of the bucket’s castle like design.   His architectural creativity became the focus for the next 30 minutes or so as he worked on building the walls and eventually the center structure of the castle.

I observed the frustration he suffered when the simplest particle on earth could not be controlled.  A grain of sand.  Microscopic in size, yet unbelievably dense when adjoined with other grains surrounding it.  Have you ever sat and thought about the single grain of sand?  Admittedly, I have.  Here are a few probing questions from my curious mind.
1) When was that individual, single grain of sand formed?
2) Where has it traveled around this globe, tossed by the waters tide?
3) How many sand castles has it been a part of?
4) How many feet have pressed down upon it’s microscopic form?
5) How long will it be here?

Weird, I know, but hey at least I’m thinking.  A single bucket (say 10” high, 6” wide) might hold millions of grains of sand.  As I sit on a beach and look as far as the eye can see, I am in awe by the volume of sand in any given spot.  When I was younger we dug a hole on the beach to how deep the sand was.  Our hole was no less than 4 feet deep and we had not yet run out of sand.  So with the miles and miles of beaches in the world, spanning hundreds of feet in width and several feet in depth, there are trillions and trillions of buckets of sand upon the shores around the globe.  This doesn’t even take into consideration the depths of the sea and the fact that sand covers the ocean floor for millions and millions of square miles and God only knows how many miles deep under the oceans of the world.  Taking all of this into consideration, you quickly come to the realization that the volume of grains of sand around this earth is an unimaginable, uncountable number short of infinity.

Now, read Psalm 139 again and realize that the Lord, our God, thinks of you personally more often than that number.  One could do the same exercise with the stars in the sky, and get the same result – an infinitely large number.  God is never not thinking about you.  You are His creation and despite the fact that there are 6.2 billion of us on this planet (+/-), we are each unique in His mind and thoughts.  If you are trying to fathom God in a manner known to mankind, we cannot.  He is beyond comprehension, omnipotent and omnipresent.  He is aware of all things that happen on this earth at any given moment.  Every grain of sand, every rain drop that falls, shares in the fact that they too were created by the same hand that created you and I.  Stop trying to fit God into your image, but realize that He is everywhere at all times and watching over you with a loving heart and grace filled spirit that has endured all time.

Pursuing Hope

Read It, Learn It, Live It, Share It

“Let all bitterness and wrath and anger and clamor and slander be put away from you, along with all malice. Be kind to one another, tender-hearted, forgiving each other, just as God in Christ also has forgiven you.” – Ephesians 4:31-32
Mankind is inherently sinful.  We all know this from our youth and having been taught as children, from our parents and Sunday School teachers.  We are also taught the Golden Rule; can everyone say it with me:  “Treat others as you would like to be treated.”  It’s pretty basic when you really come down to it.  There is very little wiggle room and when it is followed, most people can generally get along.  Yet, there is something inside of us that at times, bubbles up and comes forth with wickedness and hatred for another, and we allow it to overcome our better judgment to treat others as you would like to be treated.  When my son started Kindergarten, the principle pulled the entire student body together on the first day of school and laid out this same guidelines for the students to abide in; he also added to it the Thumper Rule.  You all remember Thumper right?  He was the cute little bunny on Bambi, who pretty much said whatever was on his mind without considering the consequences or the impact to another person’s feelings.  The Thumper Rule goes like this: “If you can’t say something nice, don’t say anything at all.” 

Put these two rules together and you have a basic formula for co-existence in this life.  Treat others with kindness, generosity, love and forgiveness.  Keep your words in check and don’t slander others behind their back or in front of them.  This life is difficult and we are all pressing hard to make it through each day.  When we treat others with disrespect, callousness and resentment it only serves to create more animosity and strife in the relationship.  I personally believe we are here on this earth to help one another, to demonstrate love, hospitality and forgiveness to others as we all try to make it through each day.  Words, actions and anger do nothing but fuel the separation of individuals from this purpose in life.  In turn this creates bitterness and unforgiveness to fester and we fall farther and farther from the representation of God’s love to each other.

This life is not about today, or tomorrow.  It is about the whole and the opportunity to share His gospel with others, through the way we represent His love and peace in our daily walk.  It’s about leaving a legacy of truthfulness, integrity, love, humility and generosity for those who will carry on after we are long gone.  Hope for something better than what we have today is what binds us together as a human race, all striving for peaceful co-existence.  Without hope, we have no love, we have no future and we have no reason for following the Golden Rule or the Thumper Rule.  For without hope for a better tomorrow; who cares who you might offend, anger or step on today.  Living life in love, peace and pursuit of happiness for you and those around you will inspire you to continue down this path of hope for a better future together as mankind.  I hope you are able to consider the big picture of life in your day to day activities and forgive those who have wronged you and ask forgiveness of those you have wronged.  Don’t make this life any more difficult than it already is, and strive to help others simplify and improve upon their life as much as you can.

Walking in the Dark

“Worthy art thou, our Lord and our God, to receive the glory and the honor and the power: for thou didst create all things, and because of thy will they were, and were created.” – Revelation 4:11

When the night fell upon the land, the earth fell quiet and those that were upon it lay in slumber.  Peace had come and for the remainder of their evening, they were at rest and had no fear of what might attack.  Through the pitch though they were aware that the creatures were not far away  and they must remain alert despite their weariness.  In the morning they could proceed to the next town or village as it were.  The roads were impassible at night, and there was certainty that they would endanger the entire tribe.  So behind the doors they held fast, singing softly and peacefully worshiping the Lord.

On the road from Jericho a man was walking alone, trying to make it to his friends and companions.  The night wind cut through his cloak and left him bitter cold as his feet stumbled over the stoned pathway.  Periodically, he would look into the darkness of the hills on either side of the road sure that he was being followed, but unsure of who or what it might be.  In the distance he could hear the bleating of the sheep and the whisper of the wind through the scarce trees and tall grass as he came around the bend in the road.  Suddenly, from nowhere a soft melody of praise fell upon his ears.  In a faint tone he could hear the worship being lifted to the God of Abraham, Jacob and David. 

He stumbled from the road, down the side path toward the beautiful melody.  He had heard of angels watching over men along the road from Emmaus and even some from Damascus had spoke of visions from above.  Here he was, a lonely traveler, hungry and tired, miles from the city of Jericho, but even farther from his destination in Bethlehem.  Through the darkness he walked, stumbling yet determined to find the voices in the wilderness that seemed to be calling to him.  As he came over the top of the hill, he saw the small home in the valley, smoke coming from the fire pit. 

He neared the home and the voices became quiet, still and empty.  He heard rustling inside, but could not make out the words being spoken in a whisper.  Then the door sprang open and a large man stood in the opening, shielding the women and children from the stranger.  “What do you want here?  We need nothing from you.”, the larger man said in the darkness.  The traveler stumbled upon the porch and fell at the man’s feet.  “Please Sir, a weary traveler, nothing more.  Simply in need of warmth and a morsel if you could spare.” 

The man moved from the doorway and caught the traveler in his arms.  He put his arm around him and helped him into the house, near the fire.  He set him down upon a stool and wrapped a blanket over his shoulders.  The children and women stood at a distance, in the shadows of the room, but kept an eye upon the stranger.  A cup of water was provided along with a piece of bread, as the large man took a seat across from him.  “Where are you coming from, and where are you going at this hour?”  “My wife is sick and in need of medicine that is in Bethlehem.  I am traveling at night in fear that she might not make it to morning.  I just need to rest and then be on my way.”

“What brought you from the road to our home?”  “Your singing, the melody carried upon the wind and drew me to you.  A sound so beautiful as if angels were singing.”, replied the stranger.  “indeed we were praising our Lord, and His Son, Jesus Christ.  For in the darkness they provide our strength and courage against the evils of this world.  Lifting our voices to heaven, worshiping and bringing glory to God Almighty will cover this house and all that dwell within, just as it did for our ancestors in Egypt and Bethany and Capernaum.  You may stay as long as you like and then I will travel on with you.  It is not safe for you to travel these roads alone at night.  We can return in the morning and then you can be on your way home to your wife.  But please, eat and be filled with the spirit of the Lord in this place.”
“Thank you.  Your kindness and generosity must earn you rewards with your Creator.  I for one do not adhere to such beliefs. I have learned to trust in my self and my capabilities alone, for others will not care to love one such as me.  Tell me, why have you opened your home to me?” 
“You see young man, our God is a God of love, mercy and grace.  His Son, Jesus, walked the streets of Bethlehem, Jerusalem and along the Jordan River.  He healed many; the blind, the sick and even those that had crossed over were brought back to life.  He sought the Father in all things and taught us to love one another and to serve one another as He had served us.  We abide in His laws and strive to lift glory to Him and Him alone.  Come let us sing a song of worship and thanksgiving for your safe travels and the Lord’s loving guidance.”
            “How great is our God, sing with us,
             How great is our God, all will sing,
            How great, how great is our God.”
After singing a few songs, the men bundled up and made their way through the opening, instruction the woman to lock the door behind them.  Together they walked and they talked about God, about creation, about love and about His Son, Jesus Christ.  Soon they were entering the gates to the city and found their way to the medical practitioners home.  With Medicine in hand the two men began the long trek back to the hill country outside of Jericho.  As the sun rose over the Eastern horizon, the men said their good-byes and the stranger left on his own.  In the distance though, they could still hear him singing praise and worship to the Lord, of his new found faith.  Once again, God’s creation has come back to his place of rightful ownership.  The man would carry the testimony home with him and share it with his ailing wife, as the Lord’s kingdom was expanded that one day, thousands of years ago. 

Seek the lost today my friends and help them find their way back to the truth.

Picking a Fight with a Giant

Read It, Learn It, Live It, Share It

“Then David said to the Philistine, “You come to me with a sword, a spear, and a javelin, but I come to you in the name of the Lord of hosts, the God of the armies of Israel, whom you have taunted. . . . for the battle is the Lord’s and He will give you into our hands.”” – 1 Samuel 17:45,47

The odds are never going to be in your favor when you are up against the unrighteousness and hatred of mankind.  The very presence of evil is cloaked and hidden beneath the exterior strength of a society that is driven by the self righteous, self promoting and often times blasphemous intent to demonstrate their authority in numbers and size.  Just this week, we hear of another story where the ACLU, “America Civil Liberty Union”, has taken up sides with a group of Atheists and attacked a small school in a rural community of Jackson, Ohio; to force them to remove a portrait of Jesus Christ hanging inside of the school.  Their claim that the hanging of this portrait inside of a public school building was “unconstitutional” is based on their interpretation of the 1^st Amendment of the United States Constitution.  This portrait has been hanging on this wall of the school since 1947, but all of a sudden 3 local parents find it offensive and through the Freedom from Religion group filed a law suit to have it removed. 

This is the face of the 21^st century Goliath.  There have always been those groups of individuals and organizations that refuse to accept the existence of an Almighty, Omnipotent, Sovereign God.  From the Old Testament, through the New Testament and throughout the history of the world people have attempted to refute the One True God.  Why should we believe anything in today’s world would be different.  I get very frustrated when I watch the news and hear of the acceptance of Buddhism, Islam, Wicca, Taoism and so many other organized belief systems, yet Christianity remains at the center of attack on religions.  Why is that, and why has it always been that way?

Do you have the resolve of David?  To courageously stand up and claim God as the One True God, and stand up for His Son – Jesus Christ requires that you must go against the Goliath’s of this world.  It requires that you step up to the battle, despite the odds, despite the power, authority and intimidation that is being cast down around you.  Just as David stood before the Philistine and his entire army and refused to back down in fear, we must stand up today and fight these battles head on.  “The battle is the Lord’s and He will give you unto our hands.” 

What is different in your battle today?  If you are fighting a battle for righteousness and holiness and the sanctity of God’s values, then stand up and fight with the strength of God Almighty behind you.  Do not fear the world, for there is nothing in this world that can come against you in victory, as long as you are representing your Father in heaven, and fighting on His behalf.  Don’t tell me they are bigger, stronger, and have a larger presence (through the media and governments of this world).  David was a shepherd, with a sling shot and five stones standing alone on a hill-side outside of Bethlehem, surrounded by an entire Philistine army and one giant of a man.  The thing that they all underestimated though was that David was not fighting a battle for himself, he was fighting on behalf of God Almighty and when God is on your side, there is nothing that is unachievable.

This world is not going to stop attacking the Christian church, because it is afraid of what it stands for.  The reality is that the Christian principal beliefs; that Jesus Christ is the Messiah, the Son of God, was born of a virgin, lived, died and rose again on the third day to redeem mankind’s sin; scare most people.  They do not like the thought that there is only one way to heaven.  They do not like the thought that they must abide by a truth that their life is filled with sin, that must be atoned for.  They do not like having to conform to a selfless, servant heart existence, rather than an existence based on self promotion.  They do not like believing in something they cannot see, feel or touch.  Therefore, they try to abolish it, just as they have done for thousands of years.  God cannot be abolished, and one day they will have to answer to Him, just as Goliath and the Philistines did.  So, pick up your stones today, enter into the battle and fight on God’s behalf, your victory awaits you.

Three Little Words

Read It, Learn It, Live It, Share It

“A servant girl saw him seated there in the firelight. She looked closely at him and said, "This man was with him." But he denied it. "Woman, I don't know him," he said.” – Luke 22:56-57

There are three words spoken by a child that are like a dagger in every parents heart.  “I hate you.”  Generally spoken in a fit of anger, over a decision waged against the child’s desired outcome.  If you are a parent you have most likely heard these words escape the lips of one of your children at some point in their life.  Immediately, as the power of the words sink in, a spontaneous reaction normally ensues.  There are some that will react with love, some that will react with discipline and others that will not react at all in an outward manner and just let the words go unacknowledged.  In any of these situations though, the internal impact is generally one of hurt, disappointment and concern for the relationship.

Peter’s denial of Christ comes at a moment of vulnerability.  His words are spontaneous in reaction to the fear of just seeing his Master, whom he deeply loves, be taking away in shackles.  Despite Peter’s strength and love for Jesus Christ as captured in Mark 14:29; his immediate reaction when confronted was to avoid the same persecution himself.  Many point to this as a weakness in Peter, yet I point to this as Peter’s role in Jesus ministry. 

In Zachariah 13:7, it is prophesied that the sheep would be scattered when the shepherd was struck.  Jesus is the shepherd and the disciples were all scattered across the hillside and city of Jerusalem that evening.  Furthermore, before all of this happened Jesus had told Peter that even he would deny Him as Christ.  This demonstrates the omnipotence and sovereignty of God Almighty.  Things happen for a reason and all work within His grander plan. 

Peter’s denial that evening exemplifies our inability to control the outcome of situations despite our own best interests.  Later in the scriptures after Jesus is crucified, buried and resurrected, He appears on the shore as the disciples are fishing.  It’s unclear how much time had passed since the night he denied Christ, but it had to be eating away at his heart and mind that he had let his Savior down and would never have the chance to be forgiven.  In John 21:15-17, we find them on the shore and Jesus asks Peter 3 times – “Do you love Me?”  It is not coincidental that Jesus asks this 3 times, but specifically to wash away any doubt in Peter’s mind that he would be forgiven.  This moment between Jesus and Peter will forever be etched in my mind as I think about all of the times I have disappointed my Savior.

His love for me never changes.  I may not have outright denounced Jesus Christ in the face of others, but there are certainly times in my life that I have not lived up to the expectations and righteousness that is expected of me as a follower of Jesus Christ.  In doing so, I have demonstrated to those around me that He is not important to me.  Despite all of my transgressions and unrighteous behavior, I know without a doubt that Jesus Christ loves me, and will never abandon me.  The next time your child looks up at you with anger in their eyes and says those three powerful words, “I hate you.”,  perhaps you should respond like Jesus and let them know without a doubt – you still love them.

Prayer:Almighty God,
We look at Peter the disciple and realize that Your love for us is beyond measure and immutable.  You have demonstrated this time and time again through Your grace and mercy in our lives.  We come before You Lord, seeking forgiveness for those situations in our life where we have been unrighteous and falsely represented You to others.  Help us to be strong in our actions to ensure that you are presented in the holy, righteous and loving manner You deserve.  In Your name we pray - Amen

Who Shall I Fear

Read It, Learn It, Live It, Share It

“. . so that we confidently say, "THE LORD IS MY HELPER, I WILL NOT BE AFRAID. WHAT WILL MAN DO TO ME?"" – Hebrews 13:6

The reality of life is the fact that at some point it will end. Most people do not want to think about this, as it tends to be quite a depressing and fearful thought.  Yet, some look at this point in the lifecycle as a significant passing event and an entry into a new chapter in life.  A chapter that is mysterious, unknown and uncertain; but at the same time an exciting entry into an existence beyond the pain, the worry, the fear and the sin of this world.

Death is the one thing that every one of us have in common.  In life, we are constantly looking for change, for improvement and fulfillment to the unquenched yearning inside.  The longing for something more than what we have fuels our desire to press on each day.  But the realization that we don’t control the end point creates this fear in most people.  Traditionally this fear is grounded in the inability to see and accept that there is something greater on the other side of life.  The sheer fact that people are fearful of death indicates humanities inability to fully accept that there is an incredible, un-imaginable presence with the Lord awaiting them after they have finished this race.  We are drawn into the fear and emotion of leaving our loved ones, our life and the things we know to enter into something we cannot fathom or fully understand.

For if we truly sat back and thought about the overwhelming joy, love, peace and rest that awaits us once we have entered into His presence, there would be little fear in coming to the end.  There would truly be nothing that any other person could inflict upon you or I that could remove or alter that desired state of being.  For as Paul said in his letter to the Philippians (1:21) “For to me, to live is Christ and to die is gain”, we can capture the proper state of being.  While we walk this earth, our sole purpose is to live for Christ and represent Christ to every other person we meet.  For, in knowing that upon death from this flesh and body, we are brought into the presence of God Almighty and given the joy of walking with Jesus Christ for eternity, nothing in this world should be feared.

Even Mark Twain said it in his most Southern charmful way, “The fear of death follows from the fear of life.  A man who lives fully is prepared to die at any time.”  Perhaps many of us are afraid of death simply because we haven’t fully lived the life we wanted to live.  We realize that in living this life focused on our self, we leave nothing behind upon our death.  The life that is lived serving, helping and giving back to others will carry on long after our death, and thus represents a life fully lived. 

Christ walked this earth for a mere 33 years.  His first 30 years (or so) were spent as any other Jewish man of His time.  Studying the scrolls, the writings of the prophets, the teachings of Moses and Abraham.  He was a carpenter by trade, following in the footsteps of His earthly father, Joseph.  Then for 2 to 3 years, He demonstrated the presence of God Almighty to the world before He was crucified.  His purpose had been defined and He accepted it, despite the knowledge that it would cost Him his very life.  On the very night of His betrayal, He knelt in the Garden of Gethsemane praying that there might be another way for God the provide salvation for mankind. 

Do you think Jesus Christ feared what lied before Him?  Perhaps His human existence came into play, knowing the unbelievable pain that lie before Him.  Perhaps He saw the mutilation in His mind long before it ever took place.  Perhaps, He knew what lie ahead of Him was the receiving of the wrath of His Father, through the hands of mankind, for the forgiveness of their very sinful nature.  I don’t believe Jesus feared mankind that evening, I believe He very well knew the pain and suffering that He would have to endure so that you and I could be set free.

Jesus took it all so that you and I might stand firm before mankind knowing that our eternity is established.  By His stripes, we are given redemption and the freedom to completely experience God’s love and grace.  For the only thing left to fear, as death calls upon each of us, is the wrath of God for those who have refused His Son.  The reality of fear in this life is captured in the uncertainty of knowing where you will stand on that final day of judgment.  For those of us who have accepted Jesus Christ as Savior and Lord, we will enter into death with joy, thanksgiving and peace in knowing our eternal life will be spent praising and worshiping our King, our Heavenly Father and Lord. 

There is nothing that man can do to me that will remove this end state from my being.  Today I challenge you to think about your life and your death.  Are you certain without a doubt that you are living for the King today, and that should your life end tomorrow, your eternity is sealed in His presence?  If not, please set this right today, so you too might live without fear.  Be blessed.

Use Your Time Wisely

I apologize for the lack of posts over the last 2 weeks.  I was on a trip in Asia and unable to access this Blogspot web-site because of censorship laws there.  Please keep the people of China in your prayers as they continue to grow in the Lord, and strengthen their resolve to serve Him. 

Read It, Learn It, Live It, Share It 

 “The mind of man plans his way, But the LORD directs his steps" – Proverbs 16:9

Do you really know where it is you are going each day?  I’m not talking about to work, school or the store.  I’m referring to life.  Where are your steps today taking you?  One step closer to tomorrow, or are you stuck in the mud and mire of today’s circumstance and problems? 

The Lord gives you a sunrise each and every morning as a reminder that all things are new once again.  Today is only defined by the hour hand on the clock, but your life is defined by the moments and memories within each day.  For the next 24 hours, you will have the opportunity to do great things for other people and to expand His Kingdom on this earth.  Certainly, you will have responsibilities along the way, such as your job, your bills, your kids, your friends and family; but you purpose for getting out of bed today was placed in your heart by your Creator.

Serving His purpose is the plan for the day.  Are you in a place in life where you can actually serve Him wherever He might call you to serve?  What would happen if you were led to help those people in the “Inner city” find shelter today?  How much of your planned life would you give up to help another person?  What if a child needed to be cared for, so the mother could look for a job?  What if your neighbor fell on hard times and needed help financially to make it through the month?  What if that friend from so many years ago was on the verge of doing something terrible because of a battle with depression raging inside of them?

We are one in the Lord.  We are a community of brothers and sisters, sworn to love, cherish and serve those around us.  You plan may take you to the office or classroom or grocery store today.  Let it.  Let your daily walk proceed in a manner that achieves it’s end purpose, but at the same time, let the Lord work in and through you to touch those you come in contact with.  Despite your belief and your desire, you are not here on this earth for your joy and happiness.  You are here to serve the One and Only God of the Universe, because He placed His loving trust in you, and called you to follow Him. 

When the sun sets on this beautiful day, you can sit in soft reflection on the walk you took with the Lord today.  Contemplate the opportunities that came and went, and your use of those to bring glory to your King.  After all, that is why you get out of bed each morning, and that is the purpose you are on this earth.  Think about the eternal plan of life, death and heaven, and you will realize that you are here at this time, in this place for a purpose that has nothing to do with you.  You are only living this life to bring those around you to a better understanding and relationship with their Creator; and then your days will come to an end. 

My request for you today, is to think bigger about what you are doing with the moments you have between sunrise and sunset each and every day.  Use them wisely, for once they have passed, they are no longer yours to control.  Be blessed my friends, and seek His way today.
