SOMETIMES GOD IS SILENT

SOMETIMES GOD IS SILENT

Matthew 15:23 “Jesus did not answer a word.”

Zephaniah 3:17

“The LORD your God is with you,

he is mighty to save.

He will take great delight in you,

he will quiet you with his love,

he will rejoice over you with singing."

How many times in our lives have we wanted to hear the voice of Jesus giving us advice, pouring out wisdom, showing us direction, pointing us towards the right path, only to not hear anything but silence?

Have you ever met someone who had such an intimate relationship, and so completely trusted in God, that they did depend on a voice?

God’s love is silent because He loves us beyond the power of words to express it and beyond understanding of the human heart.

God is also silent for our sakes – so that we can learn to love and trust Him with pure, spontaneous responses.

Its in those moments and mysteries of silence that we love God with everything in us, and in those moments He still does like Exodus 34 says, “wonders never before done.”

WHO DO YOU NEED TO CALL TODAY?

Colossians 3:13 “Bear with each other and forgive whatever grievances you may have against one another. Forgive as the Lord forgave you.”

I heard this verse over the weekend in church and felt conviction immediately.
The Word of God does that to us. But its one thing to feel that conviction, but its another to respond to it.

Is there someone you need to call today? Is there an email you need to send? Is there some sort of reconnection that needs to be made?

Then what are you waiting for?

GIVING IT A TRY

I watched Jay Leno's 10pm show for about a week when it first started.

I watched Conan O'Brien's show for about 4 weeks when he first started at 11:30.

Both were incredibly horrible. But at least they tried.

Then the media made a massive stink about the "failure" of NBC, Jay, and Conan.

What are we teaching our kids?

How are we going to learn anything if we don't try anything new?

I'm going to try something completely new in March that I, (nor anybody in this radio market) has done before.

It could be a huge failure, or it could be another success. At the end of the day, at least I know I tried something new.

Playing it safe bores me.

CALEB AT 3

I get a kick out of this iphone application "Hipstamatic", it reminds me of an old camera my mom would have used when I was 3. And of course, working with the many faces of "Lil' Mann" isn't too shabby either.

AND WE ARE OFF AND RUNNING

...And we are off and running! I've tried to limit my blog, website, "Lost" talk before the season began, but now I found myself scanning this morning for "nuggets" of info, hints, truth, whatever...I like the talk amongst the nerds, (including myself.)

"Season 6 isnt about time travel. It’s about the implications, the aftermath, & the causality of trying to change the past." Show Co-Creator/Writer/Producer Damon Lindelof told www.ew.com.

So the "flash-sideways" will show us what happens when we mess with the past? My new question is, will these two storylines parallel each other? Will they connect, or is it basically 2 shows?

I don't care...I'm in. I'm a fan of the giant story,...redemption and restoration in the lives of the imperfect....like me.

MERCY ME VISITS PULSE FM

Pretty excited about one week from today. MercyMe stops by the morning show to hand-deliver new music, and a new musical idea they are toying with called "Mr. Lovewell". Plus, I'll be asking the boys if they would consider adding their musical talents to MY new musical venture....coming soon.
