Dreams of Birds and Grapes (Genesis 40)

One morning a man was told that two of his friends had or were about to pass away. He had a vision. His dream was of Genesis Chapter 40. He recalled the story of Joseph's interpretation of the dreams of two of Pharaoh's officials: the cup bearer and the baker. The cup bearer and the baker were each awaiting their fate. One (the cup bearer) had a dream of which the interpretation was that he would be restored to his position and reconciled to his king. The other had a dream of which the interpretation was his time was up. He would not be reconciled. He had missed his chance. We trust in the grace and mercy of God and we cling to the hope of salvation for each person we love. If you have not yet been reconciled to the King of Heaven and Earth, what is holding you back? He wants to restore you in your relationship with Him today and He would love to have you in His service for ever.

Resurrection and Frankenstein's Creation (2 Corinthians 5:17 and Revelation 21 3b-4)

2 Corinthians 5:17 Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, the new creation has come: The old has gone, the new is here! We went to see Frankenstein the Ballet last night. If anyone knows that story. The beginning is like the book. Dr. Frankenstein makes a creation out of the parts of corpses who had had terrible things happen in their lives - and then he brings life to the new creation and it becomes whole - with a whole new lease on life. A new chance to live. No matter all the awful stuff that had happened before. Now - the book actually ends poorly after that but the ballet does not. The ballet includes a story of Giselle. This bride, who herself suffered a horrible fate, learned forgiveness and is resurrected. She meets Frankenstein's creation; they fall in love - and start off again, this time living a transformed life. Revelation 21:3b-4: God himself will be with them and be their God. 4 ‘He will wipe every tear from their eyes. There will be no more death’ or mourning or ...

2 Timothy 1:12: Learn to Suffer

2 Timothy 1:12: That is why I am suffering as I am. Yet I am not ashamed, because I know whom I have believed, and am convinced that he is able to guard what I have entrusted to him for that day. Today’s thought on 2 Timothy 1:12 is entitled ‘Learn to Suffer’. ‘Learn to Suffer’ is motto of a Scottish Clan. Anyone know which clan? Clan Duncan. The Clan motto is ‘Learn to Suffer.’ Did you know that 2 of the early kings of Scotland were Duncans: One was Duncan I and do you know who was the other? Duncan II. Duncan I obtained the throne through murder and Duncan II lost it the same way. The Duncans would learn to suffer. The Duncans historically weren’t so good at choosing the winning side in important battles. They supported the victorious Robert the Bruce in his wars and received benefits from that. But later they supported Charles I, who was defeated, murdered and his country conquered by Cromwell’s Puritans. In supporting the losing side in this war, the Duncans would learn to suff...

For whoever wants to save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for me (and for the gospel) will save it Mark 8:35 I’ve got a test for us today: Famous Quotes. Let’s see who can name the speaker of each of the following quotes:[1] 1) “Hi Ho Silver, Away…” 2) “We’re not in Kansas anymore, Toto” 3) “I am not a crook” 4) “While women weep, as they do now, I'll fight; while children go hungry, as they do now I'll fight; while men go to prison, in and out, in and out, as they do now, I'll fight; while there is a drunkard left, while there is a poor lost girl upon the streets, while there remains one dark soul without the light of God, I'll fight, I'll fight to the very end!” 5) “Up, up, and away!” 6) “I’m strong to the finish ‘cause I eat my spinach; I’m _________ the sailor man.” 7) “For whoever wants to save his life will lose it, but for whoever loses his life for me (and for the gospel) will save it.” T...
