    www.morguefile.com   I am the vine; you are the branches. ...Apart from me you can do nothing. John 15:5   Some things are so obvious, they should be automatic. Like this one: When a piece of equipment won't turn on, start at the wall. One of the experiments my team worked on required three pieces of equipment. We built the first rough prototypes and, after we got each piece running OK, we scheduled the first… Read More

    God made two great lights--the greater light to govern the day and the lesser light to govern the night. Genesis 1:16 We know the moon only reflects the sun's light. It seems to shine brightly, but that's an illusion. What does the moon really look like? The image through a telescope during a new moon, when the sun's rays are blocked, is not a pretty picture. It's rough and pitted. Cold and harsh. Isn't it amazing that… Read More

    "The Word became flesh and dwelt among us." John 1:14 The powerful Word who spoken into blackness, "Let there be light." The glorious Word who filled the temple with fire. The tender Word who spoke to Mary and Joseph. This power, glory, and tenderness became flesh and walked among us. I love these beautiful truths expressed by Ruth Rosen of Jews for Jesus: "How amazing that God became less, in order to be like us...… Read More

      This is not a favorite verse; it's a favorite story. But, as I read it today, I felt convicted!     She said to herself, "If I only touch his cloak, I will be healed."  Jesus turned and saw her. "Take heart, daughter," he said, "your faith has healed you." And the woman was healed from that moment. Matthew 9:21-22   I love this story. The woman had been bleeding for several years and… Read More
