Follower of Jesus. I strive to authentically and sincerely embody His Love, His Work on the Cross, and His Compassion and Mercy toward Humanity through servant leadership. My first calling is to Christ, and I live that out by being a faithful and committed husband, father, and grandfather, endeavoring to faithfully steward the gifts and talents God has granted me in this life. My vocational motto is, “I work labor the Lord, but I work for Ford.”

A Leader Willing to be Lead

Ser-minute 032711

And he Moses said unto him, If thy presence go not with me, carry us not up hence. Ex. 33:15 – As strong of a leader as Moses was, he was also humble enough to know that unless God carried them, their travels were destined for failure. I wonder how many burdens would be lifted and cares would be released, were we to allow God to carry us and leave his proverbial footprints in the sand of our lives?

Friends, they that wait on the Lord will renew their strength. You know why you’re so weary in well doing? You’ve forgotten who you’re waiting on! You’ve tried so long to make it on your strength; you’ve grown weary of the promise. You gave up before your reaping season even started. HE IS THE GOD OF THE HARVEST! Don’t stop sowing, don’t stop believing; your reaping season is set to ignite! Wait I say upon the Lord!

Hurt Beyond Words?

Likewise the Spirit also helpeth our infirmities: for we know not what we should pray for as we ought: but the Spirit itself maketh intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered. Rom. 8:26 – Have you ever been hurt beyond words and you’re left speechless? Allow God’s Spirit to intercede through you. Those supernatural groanings will speak healing into YOUR spirit if you’ll trust God to do the speaking!

What Made Christ Weep?

Ser-minute 032411

What gets to the heart of God more than a broken heart? The Bible records twice that Christ wept; once for the death of a friend (John 11:35), the other for a broken relationship (Luke 19:41) between Israel and himself. Christ knew what it meant to be betrayed and denied. He came unto His own, and even they wouldn’t receive Him (John 1:11). Is your relationship current with your Savior?

No Success Without the Source

For in him we live, and move, and have our being – Acts 17:28 We all have hopes and dreams and we should. But, having those outside of God’s Divine Will is foolhardy. James teaches we “ought to say, If the Lord will, we shall live, and do this, or that.” Success without the ONE who makes success possible isn’t success; it’s a ticking time bomb of misery and failure. It is He who has made us, and not we ourselves.
