Things are neither right nor wrong but thinking makes them so.

~William Shakespeare~

How is that for a “Theory of Truth?"  


My father thought I lived in “a reality distortion field.” He was nice about it, but he thought I was somewhat out of my mind. He had no time for Christianity. The worst day in his life was when I became a Christian, and the second worst day was when I went to seminary. He thought I was wasting my life. He felt I could have done anything. But to waste my life becoming a poor pastor... I am sure he wondered; “Where did I go wrong?”


That was many decades ago, and I have traveled many roads. On each of them I am very certain that the Lord Jesus Christ has been with me, providentially guided me, and strategically used me.


I think Woodrow Wilson was right when he said, “I would rather lose in a cause that will someday win than win in a cause that will someday lose.”


However, Jesus was more right; "What does it profit a man to gain the whole world and forfeit his life?"


Serving Him with you

Until He comes for us.
