Refocus

VineWords Devotions and More

Timmy could still feel the twist and the turns as he gently planted his feet on firm ground again. It was bright, and as he tried to refocus His eyes to the light, he looked back, peering at the dark tunnel he had just come through…

lugging luggage

Lugging Luggage

VineWords Devotions and More

Now turn from your sins and turn to God, so you can be cleansed of your sins. ~Acts 3:19 NLT As I turned the corner and squinted at the gate numbers, I knew I wasn’t finished lugging luggage. My wife and I and another couple were on our way to Nova Scotia, Canada, for mission work. With an hour layover in Chicago, we imagined we’d have time to catch our breath before our last leg of the flight. The terminal … Continue reading →

Friends

VineWords Devotions and More

I did not know Barbara before that day, but I had been given her phone number and was told she was looking for a carpool partner. We decided to meet for lunch. That way we could meet, and decide if we wanted to try carpooling together. As we sat down to eat, Barbara asked if we could pray first. She told me she and her family were Christians, and they were accustomed to praying before meals. …

saying goodbye

Saying Goodbye

VineWords Devotions and More

He will wipe every tear from their eyes, and there will be no more death or sorrow or crying or pain. All these things are gone forever. ~Revelation 21:4 NLT We fought to swallow the lumps in our throats and blinked away the tears. Then, we proceeded with saying goodbye. Our daughter had always been my run-away bride. No man had been able to tame her. Some had come close—one even close enough to give her two children—but in the … Continue reading →

A Different Plan

VineWords Devotions and More

You wanted to build the Temple to honor my name. Your intention is good, but you are not the one to do it.               -1 Kings 8:18-19 NLT We almost made it . . . but then had to engineer a different plan.       My wife and I and my brother and sister-in-law were headed to Sassafras Mountain—South Carolina’s highest point.

Just Passing Through

Just Passing Through

VineWords Devotions and More

I am only a foreigner in the land. Don’t hide your commands from me!   Psalm 119:19 NLT I was just passing through; I had no plans to stay forever. As a pastor’s son, I passed through many places. We passed through Hilda, South Carolina, and stayed for three years. Next, we passed through Jackson, Tennessee, where we stopped over for four years. Then we went to Cameron, South Carolina, where we passed through in one year. Finally, we journeyed … Continue reading →

Prepped and Ready

Prepped and Ready

Hurricanes Ian and Nicole hit the Florida coast forty-three days apart in 2022. Since I experienced both, I quickly learned the importance of being prepped and ready with multiple backup plans. Pre-prepping for a hurricane requires collecting shelf-stable groceries, buying a large supply of safe water, fueling vehicles, and stashing some cash. Additionally, we needed all life’s important paperwork gathered and near us.  As an actual hurricane approaches, we move the outside furniture in. Dining umbrellas can become javelins. We … Continue reading →
