I have been in a blog fog for sometime. I’m not sure what the problem is. I have several things on my mind that I keep planning to post and somehow never get around to it. At any rate, I’m making an attempt to day.
One of my favorite cartoons is Pickles. The characters are often too close to my own experiences. I am considering starting to post some of the adventures of Fred and Fanny in a small, central Kentucky town. You can look forward (?) to FICKLES coming soon.
I have mentioned before the sermon series from the life of Joseph being presented by Pastor Steve Elliott at First Alliance church. I think, for me, this has been one of the best series I have had the opportunity to hear. I would encourage anyone to take the time and listen to them. You can access the audio their website.
Here are few random quotes from my notes of Steve’s lessons. (Not all are original to Steve but were cited in his lessons)
“Self pity is a grave from which there is no ressurrection.”
“May your future contain all the promise and all the joy this moment once held.”
“A divine reminder: if you wrestle with God, you will not win and you will walk with a limp ever after.”
“You can have a life full of dramatic encounters with God and still not have a life full of God.”
“Change always involves loss.”
“A guilty conscience is always suspicious of Grace.”
“When you trust people to deliver what only God can deliver, we become bitter.”
