JUST KIDDING! People are not getting crabby… They have been so for years! Today is April 1, 2025 and a good day to specifically write to fools. Crabbies, if you don’t love God and man like this: Matthew 22:35-40 One of them, an expert in the law, tested him with this question: “Teacher, which is the greatest commandment in the Law?” Jesus replied: “‘Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul…..
AND FOOLS ON OTHER DAYS… THE KINGDOM OF GOD: Revelation 4:11 “You are worthy, our Lord and God, to receive glory and honor and power, for you created all things, and by your will they were created and have their being.” GOD’S CHILDREN: Psalm 111:10 The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom; all who follow his precepts have good understanding. To him belongs eternal praise. SATAN’S KINGDOM OF LIES: John 8:44 You belong to your…..
Psalm 14 The fool says in his heart, “There is no God.” They are corrupt, their deeds are vile; there is no one who does good. The Lord looks down from heaven on all mankind to see if there are any who understand, any who seek God. All have turned away, all have become corrupt; there is no one who does good, not even one. Do all these evildoers know nothing? They devour my people as though eating bread; they never call on…..
DON’T BE FOOLED… “The unbeliever’s perception of beauty is extremely limited because of the lack of holiness in their lives.”
A TOTALLY TRUE STORY… Some people should just stay home… until they have repented! As my husband and I sat down in the sanctuary of our church we heard immediately the woman directly behind my husband hatefully complain how her view was now blocked – that it had been perfect. This thoughtless person had no concern for the people coming in – no rejoicing that more than she, herself, and her family would celebrate our Risen Lord, His…..
AND THE WIFE-TO-BE! Duane and I were married in September, 1979, as some of you know. One of the things that very much impressed me about him was that he was working with special needs people! Even though I was a sinner at the time, I did have some really good values. But remember, I was not holy. And yet God is so remarkable! He had put in me some wonderful values (many of these…..
DEPRESSED? No problem! Worship God! Psalm 118:24 The Lord has done it this very day; let us rejoice today and be glad. Nehemiah 8:9-11 Then Nehemiah the governor, Ezra the priest and teacher of the Law, and the Levites who were instructing the people said to them all, “This day is holy to the Lord your God. Do not mourn or weep.” For all the people had been weeping as they listened to the words of the Law. Nehemiah said, “Go and…..
Dear Father, When I speak to people I know will not listen… I only give them Scripture. Selah. Why? You know Father: You know everything. But let me tell the others: because Your Word is a weapon and mine is only a commentary. Hebrews 4:12-13 For the word of God is alive and active. Sharper than any double-edged sword, it penetrates even to dividing soul and spirit, joints and marrow; it judges the thoughts and attitudes of the heart. Nothing…..
‘CAUGHT IN THE MIDDLE’… an interesting phrase. God gave me this revelation; and whatever He tells me, it’s always masterful! Honestly, no one is ever ‘caught in the middle’. Selah. Why? Because there are only two sides of each and every story: one side is right, it is holy. The other is wrong, unholy, and very likely, replete with lies. Beloved, whenever there is strife, get out your Bible. Right is right. Wrong is wrong. Sometimes we sin,…..
