The Lighted Path

Good morning everyone and Happy Thanksgiving !  I told you last night that I was not making any promises about an additional post or even a YouTube video for that matter.  I did hook up and install the software for my good web cam , but that is a far as I got. Thanksgiving eve service was a very refreshing and renewing service.  The scripture lesson for the evening was 2 Kings 5 .  This is the story of Naaman's healing of leprosy.  The way that the preacher delivered his sermon was two-fold.  First he spoke on how Naaman almost missed out on this blessing and healing from God because he did not think that what he was instructed to do was fitting for a man of his stature but reluctantly he did what was instructed and was healed.  Next he spoke on the prophet Elisha's servant Gehazi who was not content with what he had and had been witness to and tried to get the gift that was offered to Elisha by Naaman and because Gehazi wanted "a little bit more,"...

Back in August I set out to read through the Bible from Genesis through Revelation. In my Bible there was a reading plan that would take you through the Bible in 90 days. Well ladies and gentlemen, today was day number 90 and the mission is complete! I have grown so much in these past 90 days, that sometimes it is hard for me to even believe. I feel that my relationship with God and Jesus has deepend significantly. Over the course of these 90 days a lot of things have gone on in my life, both good and bad, but I have never felt alone. One of the most awesome things to happen is that I have quit smoking...FINALLY! It has been just under three months since my last cigarette and I only used the patch for two weeks. I can safely say that it was through Jesus where my stength came and is still coming. I hate to cut this short, but the dishes must get done before we head out to church for the Thanksgiving Eve service. I may be back later to post some more, or maybe do a YouTube vid...
