the overflow


It is the end of the week, and my heart is still full.  In fact God is doing some things that I am so excited about.  That is why I will close out this week with the overflow.


Yes.  Overflow.  Just some things from my time with God this week, from the trip to Cuba, from the planning I am doing for the days ahead.  Soak in some of these things.  God is working, and I am grateful!


Watch to see where God is working and join Him.  - Henry Blackaby (from the book Experiencing God)


If you want to impress people, talk about your successes.  If you want to impact people, talk about your failures… if you want to influence people, let your actions speak louder than your words. - Benny Tate


Isaiah 43:19  NLT  

For I am about to do something new. See, I have already begun! Do you not see it? I will make a pathway through the wilderness.


It is the people.  That is what really matters.  Make much of the people around you.  We don’t influence or cherish things, or we shouldn’t.  Relationships matter.


May the overflow in our lives be based on the relationships God is building in our lives and on the relationships that God is blessing.


Family and marriage.


Friendship and partnerships.


People.  God’s gift to us.


Jesus.  Walk with Him daily.


The overflow.


Exodus 14:31  NLT  

When the people of Israel saw the mighty power that the Lord had unleashed against the Egyptians, they were filled with awe before him. They put their faith in the Lord and in his servant Moses.

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

why is it Good Friday?

  Holy Week is the time we focus on God and His gift of salvation.  We come to Friday.  The day we remember the cross, Jesus’ death and all God has done for you and me   Why do they call this day “Good Friday” because it doesn’t seems good?   Jesus was treated as a criminal.  He was beaten so much that He could not recognize Him.  His pain would have been too much for you or me to endure.  That is especially from Scripture I’ve read or as in the movie the  Passion of the Christ .   Yet it is a good day.  It is Good Friday because God had our good in His heart.  What Jesus did that day changed our forever direction. Here are some thoughts that come to me:   He is Redemption and Redeemer   He too our Pain and Punishment   He is our Righteousness and Reality   He is the Savior and Life   All of those happened from the cross.  It was meant for the worst lawbreakers.  It was not meant for a Savior who never broke a law.  It was lifted high so that onlookers could see the price Jesus.   Look
