Ecclesiastes 3:11 - "He has also set eternity in the hearts of men."

There is something within you that is being called by eternity. We live in time and space but time and space are connected to eternity, and
God has put something into your heart that calls the unseen into the seen.
The vision God has put in your heart is "a piece of eternity" that He gave you to deliver in time and space -- that is, on the earth during your lifetime. God lives...

Seems tough to believe that we're just a few weeks removed from 100-degree temperatures, and now, we're getting the very thing that Texas has been needing for some time.

Rain.

Coming back this morning (at this writing) from San Angelo after a few days of R&R, the rain was gently falling outside along U.S. Highway 67 as I took that road back home. Sometimes a sprinkle, and other times, steady. A stark contrast from the first few days of the trip,...

"For this reason, I kneel before the Father, from whom every family in Heaven and on earth derives its name. I pray that out of His glorious riches, He may strengthen you with power through His Spirit in your inner being, so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith.
