it really is that simple


4,569 to the 8th power divided by X over 62 … Ok, that is not an equation, but it is an example of something I cannot deal with.  It is hard.  It is not something I can answer, but I prove a point.

Sometimes answers really are simple.  We don’t like simple answers, but they confound us or make us stop doing the things we think are that important.  I am not a thinker or very deeper.  I love theology, but I struggle with debate, with the study of end times and a lot more.  But when it comes to the simple, I am still overwhelmed.

The simple and true answer is this: TRUST JESUS.  With all the problems that are going on around the world, trust Jesus.  Seeing all the pain that is caused and thrown around, trust Jesus.  Why are things so confusing or so tough?  I don’t know, but we can trust Jesus.

The answer is trust Jesus.  When times are tough or you don’t know what to do, trust Jesus.  How are we to get through all of the stuff we have to do?  We trust Jesus.

Yesterday I heard a profound message with many good points.  The one that stuck in my brain sine the message was this one.  We must and will continue and need always… trust Jesus.

Proverbs 3:5  NLT
Trust in the Lord with all your heart; do not depend on your own understanding.

2 Corinthians 3:4  NLT
We are confident of all this because of our great trust in God through Christ.

Titus 3:8  NLT
This is a trustworthy saying, and I want you to insist on these teachings so that all who trust in God will devote themselves to doing good. These teachings are good and beneficial for everyone.

Trust Jesus.  It really is that simple!

wash feet, sharing hope

  John 13:4-5,14 NLT  So he got up from the table, took off his robe, wrapped a towel around his waist, 5 and poured water into a basin. Then he began to wash the disciples’ feet, drying them with the towel he had around him… 14 And since I, your Lord and Teacher, have washed your feet, you ought to wash each other’s feet. Jesus set the example we follow.  He served.  He valued and gave value to others.  That is why we choose to serve. For 18 years our church has shared an outreach called back2school, and for 16 of those years we have chosen to give students brand new shoes and socks as well as washing their feet.  It is one of the most important parts of this event. Washing feet is a humbling experience where both the give and the receiver learn how to share some moments that might change their lives.  Jesus said we should do this.  See the verse above.  Follow His example, do what He did, and give far more than you will ever know....

Have you heard of EDITH BURNS?

Edith Burns was a wonderful Christian who lived in San Antonio, Texas . She was the patient of a doctor by the name of Will Phillips. Dr. Phillips was a gentle doctor who saw patients as people. His favorite patient was Edith Burns.  One morning he went to his office with a heavy heart and it was because of Edith Burns.  When he walked into that waiting room, there sat Edith with her big black Bible in her lap earnestly talking to a young mother sitting beside her.  Edith Burns had a habit of introducing herself in this way: "Hello, my name is Edith Burns.  Do you believe in Easter?" Then she would explain the meaning of Easter, and many times people would be saved.  Dr. Phillips walked into that office and there he saw the head nurse, Beverly. Beverly had first met Edith when she was taking her blood pressure. Edith began by saying,"My name is Edith Burns. Do you believe in Easter?"  Beverly said, "Why yes I do."  Edith said, "Well, what do you ...
