Journey of a Lifetime

“Let not your heart be troubled; you believe in God, believe also in Me. In My Father’s house are many mansions; if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you. John 141-2 NKJV

Yesterday I returned to Watermark Assisted Living and shared with my friends some of the details of our 50th wedding anniversary travels. Besides visiting with our family, the high point was to worship at the little country church where we were married a lifetime ago. Lots of things have changed but amazingly they are still using the same piano that Nancy played before we said, “I do!” I hope you enjoy this heartfelt and sometimes funny session, along with a hymn that talks of where our journey is leading – That Manson over the Hilltop. Why not join us on the journey and put your trust in Jesus Christ to guide you along the way?!

Love Lifted Me at Easter

Though you might think that Amazing Grace, How Great Thou Art or In the Garden might be the most requested hymns. But at Sunshine Memory Care, “Love Lifted Me!” is their favorite. You can hear the joy in their voices as they join with me as we song this song, but with a different message on this Easter week. I hope you will enjoy listening in and pray for more volunteers so that we can bring this message of hope to many others who are sinking deep in sorrow, loneliness as well as sin. Jesus specializes in lifting us up whenever we look to Him! (And not just at Easter!)

If you feel like you have been up all night fishing, without catching even a single one, you are in the same boat with the disciples. People who live in a nursing home, often wonder why God has allowed this to happen to them or if He has anything left for them to do. The good news of Easter and of today’s message is that no matter what has happened or how we feel, Jesus still has a job for us to do! I hope you enjoy this session recorded yesterday which includes the hymn, “Come and Dine!” Have a blessed weekend everybody!

Jesus said to them, “Children, do you have any fish?” They answered him, “No.” He said to them, “Cast the net on the right side of the boat, and you will find some.” So they cast it, and now they were not able to haul it in, because of the quantity of fish. John 21:5-6 […]
