2:263 – Party: I Want To Rock And Roll All Night And … #faithbites #faithjourney #RedLetterChallenge Party If you are like me, you are now singing the Kiss Song! It’s upbeat and most of us know it. What’s funny to me, is I always say work hard and play hard. Part of that is having fun. Life is a highway, […]
2:262 – Fasting Isn’t For Others #faithbites #faithjourney #redletterchallenge fasting Have you ever fasted? I know I have. Until today, I didn’t realize that fasting could be something more than just food or the true purpose. Fasting isn’t so others no you are sacrificing. You also can’t “fast” from something that isn’t truly important or meaningful. I abstained from coffee […]
2:261 – If Loving Jesus Is Wrong, I Don’t Want To Be Right. #faithbites #faithjourney #redletterchallenge Jesus This might be repetitive, but the Red Letter Challenge is all about loving and spending time with Jesus, hence the red words. What is ironic, is we use the gifts he gives us to go after many things that are interesting but not […]
2:260 – The Book Is Missing. Should I stop? #faithbites #faithjourney #redletterchallenge missing Like clockwork, tonight I sat down to read Day 8 of the Red Letter Challenge. But when I went for the book, it was gone. I can’t find it in our bedroom, office, living room, bathroom (you never know), and it’s just gone. At first, I thought […]
2:259 – Being In Jesus Means Prayer #faithbites #faithjourney #redletterchallenge Being I pray many times a day. I pray in thanks, I pray in pain, I pray for peace, and and I pray for guidance. Something that is interesting to me is praying over a meal in public. People get weird about it. Some are just silent, some will pray […]
2:258 – Being Versed #faithbites #faithjourney #redletterchallenge Versed Are you good at something? Of course you are. You probably read and practiced it to know the subject. My #RoadToEdD is all about reading. You read, read some more, and then read more. Through the process you become one who can profess your knowledge. Even though we know we need to […]
2:257 – Would You Buy A Ticket To Your Life’s Movie? #faithbites #faithjourney #RedLetterChallenge Movie Going to the movies is a great past time of mine. Even more fun is discussing the movie with friends. Theories, ideas, and extrapolations on the plot make the movie-going experience even more fun. When you think about your life, would you want to watch […]
2:256 – Giving Is Living #faithbites #faithjourney #redletterchallenge giving Today I wanted to treat my wife and me to bagels. I went and picked up two bagels for me and a bagel for my wife. I started to drive home and saw a man on the street with a sign asking for money, food, or anything. I thought to myself […]
2:255 – Service For The Joy Of Service #faithbites #faithjourney #redletterchallenge Service I was sitting in a pastor call committee doing God’s work. Out of the blue, I got a text message from my neighbor asking if he could mow my lawn. He wasn’t expecting anything in return or anything, just did it for the service. I had to pick […]
2:254 – I’m Not Ok and That’s Ok #faithbites #faithjourney #redletterchallenge Ok Before we get started, let’s take a moment to remember September 11, 2001. The lives lost that day, the lives that continue to be lost from first responders, the lives in the wars fought since. Let us never forget the day that America, and the world, changed forever. […]
