The carpenter I hired to help me restore an old farmhouse had just finished a rough first day on the job. A flat tire made him lose an hour of work, his electric saw quit, and now his ancient pickup truck refused to start. While I drove him home, he sat in stony silence. On arriving, he invited me in to meet his family. As we walked toward the front door, he paused briefly at a small tree, touching tips of the branches with both hands. When opening the door, he underwent an amazing transformation. His tanned face was wreathed in smiles and he hugged his two small children and gave.........

The Trouble Tree

Mustard Seed Faith

One day a 6 year old girl was sitting in the classroom. The teacher was going to explain evolution to the children. The teacher asked a little boy: Teacher: Tommy do you see the tree outside?

Tommy: Yes. Teacher: Tommy, do you see the grass outside? Tommy: Yes. Teacher: Go outside and look up and see if you can see the sky.

Tommy: OK. (He returned a few minutes later) Yes, I saw the sky. Teacher: Did you see God?

Tommy: No. Teacher: That’s my point. We can't see God because he isn’t there, he doesn't exist.

A little girl spoke up and wanted to ask the boy some questions............

I am sorry, but you just don't see

there's so much that depends on me.

There's family, friends and so much more

my time's not mine, not anymore.

It isn't that I don't want to find

that part of my day, that special time

to spend with you and let you know

how much I really love you so.

But there will be time. I know there will

when quiet will come and things are still.

When I can sit and talk with you,

believe me, that's what I want to do.

But, the phone is ringing, my beeper sounds..........

Father I Will Find Time

A man was sleeping at night in his cabin when suddenly his room filled with light and the Savior appeared. The Lord told the man he had work for him to do, and showed him a large rock in front of his cabin. The Lord explained that the man was to push against the rock with all his might. This the man did, day after day. For many years he toiled from sun up to sun down, his shoulders set squarely against the cold, massive surface of the unmoving rock, pushing with all his might. Each night the man returned to his cabin sore, and worn out, feeling that his whole day had been spent in vain. Seeing that the man was showing signs........

At the University of Chicago Divinity School each year, they have what is called "Baptist Day." On this day each one is to bring a lunch to be eaten outdoors in a grassy picnic area. Every "Baptist Day" the school would invite one of the greatest minds to lecture in the theological education center. The story is that one year they invited Dr. Paul Tillich. Dr. Tillich spoke for two and one-half hours "proving" that the resurrection of Jesus was false. He quoted scholar after scholar and book after book. He concluded that since there was no such thing as the historical resurrection the religious tradition of the church was groundless, emotional mumbo-jumbo. because it was.........

The man whispered, "God, speak to me" and a meadowlark sang. But, the man did not hear. So the man yelled "God, speak to me" And, the thunder rolled across the sky. But, the man did not listen. The man looked around and said, "God let me see you." And a star shined brightly. But the man did not notice. And, the man shouted, "God show me a miracle" And, a life was born. But, the man did not know. So, the man cried out in despair, "Touch me God, and let me know you are here" Whereupon, God reached down and touched the man. But, the man brushed the butterfly away and walked on. Don't miss out on a blessing.........

Listen Carefully

This is my prayer for you today … I pray for you today a day of ordinary miracles. A fresh pot of coffee you didn’t make yourself, an unexpected phone call from an old friend. I pray for you today green stop lights on your way to work or wherever you’re going. I pray for you today the little things to rejoice in, the fastest line at the grocery store

or a good sing-a-long song that you’ll here

on the radio today. Your keys right where you looked for them. I pray for you a day of happiness and perfection. Little bite size pieces of perfection that lets you know that the Lord is smiling on you, holding you tightly because you are someone special and so rare. I pray for you today .........

An elderly carpenter was ready to retire. He told his employer-contractor of his plans to leave the house-building business and live a more leisurely life with his wife, enjoying his extended family. He would miss the paycheck, but he needed to retire. They could get by.

The contractor was sorry to see his good worker go and asked if he could build just one more house as a personal favor. The carpenter said yes, but in time it was easy to see that his heart was not in his work. He resorted to shoddy workmanship and used inferior materials. It was unfortunate way to end a dedicated.........

There was once a man who didn't believe in the incarnation of Christ or the spiritual meaning of Christmas, and was skeptical about God. He and his family lived in a farm community. His wife was a devout believer and diligently raised her children in her faith. He sometimes gave her a hard time about her faith and mocked her religious observance of Christmas. "Ifs all nonsense - why would God lower himself and become a human like us? Ifs such a ridiculous story I" he said. One snowy day, she and the children left for church while he stayed home. After they had left, the winds grew....…...
