I’m sickened by the national news. I’m talking about physically distressed. It is beyond the pale that anyone watches it and believes anything published. And yet they continue writing crummy story after crummy story. Most are outright lies and they are strategic to the bias of the writer(s) which invariably is fanatically liberal . . . https://www.…

Have you ever had a strong feeling to avoid doing something that could harm you. You might be considering making friends with someone that does not meet your moral standards but otherwise is cool to hang out with; however, intuition tells you that it would be wrong. The word intuition can be defined as, ” the ability to understand something immedia…

We’ve all heard the expression that someone is scared of his own shadow. The Bible teaches that when a person dwells in the shelter of the Most High, they will abide in the shadow of the Almighty and thus, they will not fear the terror of the night, nor the arrow that flies by day Psalm 91:1 . . . https://www.wordsfortheday.com/2024/04/shadow/…

I think that being humble is difficult for some people. All one must do is look at Jesus Christ to picture humbleness. The Creator of the world came down and was born in a manger. His three years of ministry paint a picture of how we should act. He walked everywhere He went, kings and queens and royalty rode in chariots or on horses and He could ha…

I am saddened by the plight of native Americans in this country. People who come here legally or illegally from all over the world are given food stamps, money, education, immunization and so on, but Native Americans receive little to nothing. They were here before white men came and stole their land and herded them to reservations. There they live…

I awoke this morning to a gorgeous sunny day. Lately it has been cloudy and by afternoon the rains begin. Last year we had a drought and this year floods. It is much easier to maintain a positive attitude when it is sunny rather than rainy. Here in Mississippi the weather is not good. We endure extremes in both directions. Seemingly when the sun is…

I was reading the Bible this morning and happened to come across a passage that intrigued me because I see that same thinking going on today. It is a story of two kings, one was over Judah and the other Israel. They discussed a city which the king of Israel said belonged to him, but the Syrians controlled it. He convinced the king of Judah to join …

It is amazing to me how diamonds and gold are valued. They are simply rocks albeit they are very difficult to find. There have been other things of high value in the world and they have one thing in common, there is a limited supply and thus a high price. I’m told that diamond dealers and gold dealers keep prices low by withholding inventory. Price…

How would you define love? The dictionary defines it as, “Love is “an intense feeling of deep affection.” Meanwhile, Urban Dictionary defines love as, “The act of caring and giving to someone else. Having someone’s best interest and wellbeing as a priority in your life. To truly love is a very selfless act.” Love is “an intense feeling of deep affe…

One thing is certain the Bible declares that Israel is central to Last Days prophecy. That tiny nation is the key to unlocking the mystery concerning the Last Days. God’s covenant with the nation’s forefather Abraham is central to understanding what is going on over there . . . https://www.wordsfortheday.com/2024/04/israel-2/…

Some women will get angry when they read this, just please take a look at Scripture to know how God feels about the subject. Our pastor preached an entire sermon on it, and I couldn’t agree more. The Bible says women should not go overboard in their attire. Go to any beach and that notion shall perish. Thongs and for that matter Speedos abound. Bel…

I’ve been studying the Old Testament with my Bible study partner. Today’s read is indicative of how God views our spirit for following his commands. Elijah was hiding from the wicked Queen Jezebel who was scouring the country looking for him so she could kill him. He had prophesied that they would not receive any rain and then he beat it out of tow…

Many readers have wondered why I resumed writing WFTD five days a week. Well, it is because I fear the Lord and every indication is that He does not want me to retire just yet. Fear in the bible could be translated respect rather than being afraid. I respect the Lord God my Savior 100%. I know that He has the power over life and death, and He wante…

It’s stormy looking today here in Mississippi and I always wonder if a tornado isn’t out there somewhere. Storms can be a gift of God if an area needs rain. It can be a curse if rain has eluded the area for a while and a drought has ensued. Most of us want the weather to be perfect all the time. The garden of Eden comes to mind with its daily soaki…

At some point you will undoubtedly encounter a challenge. Perhaps even today you are facing one or more. Different people react differently to challenges. Some get flustered and don’t know what they should do, others are somewhat confident they can meet the challenge, and still others think they can resolve it straight away. There are big problems …

A pair of bald eagles have been visiting my fishing pond in the last couple of weeks. They circle high above it and when they spot a fish with their keen eyes they swoop down at blazing speed and most of the time procure breakfast. It is fascinating to watch them hunting. They are truly one of God’s most efficient creatures . . . https://www.wordsf…

I get many questions from readers concerning a desire to increase their faith. Well, my first suggestion would be pull out your Bible and read what it says about how to do it. Put God’s Word into your mind. A key verse can be found in Romans 10:17: “So then faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.” If we’re not constantly putting the…

I often read in the Bible where it states God showed mercy. What does that mean from God’s perspective? Mercy can be defined as, Compassion or forgiveness toward someone whom it is within one’s power to punish or harm . . . https://www.wordsfortheday.com/2024/04/golf-or-god/

Through the years the most frequently asked question centers around why someone should forgive another who is not in their eyes deserving of it. Admittedly it is difficult to do. Especially if they reject your offer right out of the chute. Perhaps you were beaten as a child, or spouse or otherwise physically or sexually abused as a child or some ot…

I trust you had a good Easter Sunday. My wife and I went to church for the first time since my head banging incident two and a half months ago and I was thankful to be alive and in that congregation.

Many have written to me about having anxiety. Indeed, billions of dollars are spent on trying to lead a normal life when they are experiencing it. Anyone who is a Christ follower doesn’t need to take tranquilizers and other drugs to mask their fear, it is all so unnecessary. Jesus told us repeatedly not to worry, (some 75 times). He told us how foo…

Ah, it feels good to be back on the farm in Mississippi. I didn’t realize how much I missed this place. I’m recuperating here and the doctor says it will take about six months to get back to where I was before my accident, provided I can continue to progress as I’m doing now. I don’t think it will not take that long, but he has all the fancy titles…

Yesterday I did some work on the roads on my farm. It had reached a point of one of my main roads being impassable due to huge washouts. So, I got my lone worker, Willie an elderly black fellow, and I loaded up a dump trailer full of dirt and he hauled it to our first washout with my pickup. I drove the skid steer (Bobcat) to spread the dirt and fi…

So, it looks like Trump triumphed over all his opponents in Iowa. I wonder if he will be reelected. He is really getting the shaft from the NYC and Georgia Democrat prosecutorial staffs.

I have been led to write a Christmas message. Renowned intellect and author C. S. Lewis sent a Christmas message a few decades back that warned of a world that no longer knew right from wrong.

Good morning – Last May I had rotator cuff surgery and decided to stop writing Words for the Day. It seemed to be lacking the spark that had driven it the many years I had been writing it.

Many people are afraid of the dark. In fact, I read the following: “Achluophobia, or the fear of the dark, often tops the list of the most common phobias.” I think the fear of the unknown is part of the problem.
