Add this to another station St Nicholas and Isaiah 58 (0.07MB; download) -- As I mentioned in another post, I go into the Kingwood Garden Center once a week to get information for their newsletter.  This week Michal wanted to include a blurb titled "Ho, Ho, Ho!  Merry Citrus" as a lead in to suggest giving citrus trees as gifts. As I started gathering the information, the thought crossed my mind to see if there was actually a connection between Christmas and oranges.  So I googled "Christmas and oranges" and a whole series of articles on oranges in Christmas stockings and St. Nicholas came up.

Add this to another station Christmas, Candy Canes, and Chaos (0.05MB; download) -- A week ago my daughter, Avery, came home from a church LEAD team party bubbling with stories of her friends.  She had a candy cane in hand and showed me the card with a poem about candy canes.  I'm sure you've seen it:

Add this to another station Positioned for Promise in 2014 (0.05MB; download) -- The start of 2014 has been . . . interesting so far.  The new year started with some situations that needed to be resolved.  Two weeks in, I can say that clarity has been given for one issue and focus and direction is coming in another.  Doors are opening, (after all, we are in the Jewish year 5774, the year of open doors) and I'm excited to see what God has for me around the corner.

Add this to another station Love Notes on Facebook (0.02MB; download) -- Have you ever had times where you just know that God is talking to you through a series of events or messages? Sometimes I get that through Facebook. Sometimes different friends, all unconnected to each other, will post encouraging messages on the same topic in such a short period of time so that when I scroll down my feed, it is almost like one continuous stream.

Add this to another station Saint Valentine and Standing Firm (0.09MB; download) -- It's Valentine's Day, and most of us are focusing on notes, sweets, and spending time with loved ones. But in looking at the root of the holiday, there is a deeper meaning and lessons to be learned. Like many of our holidays ("holy days,") Valentine's Day began as an observance on the church calendar marking the death of a saint, a believer who numbers among the "great cloud of witnesses" in Hebrews 12:1 that we can be encouraged by and take example from.

Add this to another station Passover: Promise and Deliverance (0.06MB; download) -- Passover is viewed differently by different people. If you are Jewish, it is one of the main holy feasts that is observed whether you are particularly observant or not. It is part of your cultural identity. If you are a Christian, it may be several things. You may know it from the Exodus story from Sunday School, or you may be familiar with it from how often it is a part of the account of Jesus's ministry in the New Testament. If you are into Biblical prophecy, both those fulfilled and those yet to come, you see it as one of God's appointed times and Passover and the surrounding feasts were all fulfilled through Jesus's death (at the same time as the slaughtering of the sacrificial lamb,) resurrection (on First Fruits,) and the coming of the Holy Spirit (Shavout/Pentecost.)

Add this to another station What Was Esau Really After? (0.09MB; download) -- The passage in Genesis 33 is an interesting one. It is an account of Jacob's return to the land God promised to Abraham after sojourning with Laban for 20 years. (Gen 31:41) It seems to me that during all this time, up unto this point, Jacob was riding on the faith of his fathers. Yes, he had the experience at Bethel on his way to Paddan-Arm (Gen 28:5) where he would meet his wives and make his fortune where he saw God in a vision and the dream of the stairway to heaven. (Gen 28:10-15) God gave him the promise that he would be with him, but even after that, Jacob's response was one of questioning, and a little uncertainty. Then Jacob made this vow: "If God will indeed be with me and protect me on this journey, and if he will provide me with food and clothing, 21 and if I return safely to my father?s home, then the LORD will certainly be my God."

Add this to another station Fighting Discouragement & Why Little Things Matter (0.07MB; download) -- There was a smell and a sense of something that seemed to be moving throughout the room.    I was at the Woodway Campus attending a class called Missio Dei, Mission of God.  A ten week class, each week a featured speaker would share about the ministry they were involved in.  Some were involved in international missions, some national, and others were with local city based missions within in the church. As I have mentioned before, one thing that I experience on a fairly regular basis is the scent of spirits, which is one way God uses the gift of discerning of spirits in my life.  Sometimes I know what the smell represents.  Other times, it will take experiencing it several times before I can see the common factor and identify the source.

Add this to another station What Does it Mean to Quench the Spirit? (0.04MB; download) -- Many of us are familiar with the verse, 1 Thessalonians 5:19, "Quench Not the Spirit;" however, not everyone will agree on what it means. There are a few guidelines one should follow when interpreting a passage of Scripture. The first guideline is to read it in context. Not only in the context of the entire passage, but also in the context of to whom it was written as well as when.
