Musings for Eternity by Earl Presley


Truth - people fail, churches fail, people hurt people, family hurt more because of relationship.
Truth - we question God when we should question people and ourselves.
Truth - God loves us, and we are called to reflect that love even when we are rejected - like Jesus did.
Truth - the cross was an instrument of torture and shame
Truth - we are called to be on one with Jesus
Truth - we were called to be on it together
Truth - we should love each other regardless of circumstance because that which we share is superior to all that is around us.

If your hurting, these are the things I believe...

The worst day with Jesus and those who really serve him is better than the best day with anyone else.

10 Things I don’t understand -

1. God making us and “all that is” for us,
2. Jesus redeeming us
3. The church surviving us
4. God’s will being accomplished in spite of us
5. People wasting what precious little time they have to be with and work for Jesus
6. People claiming Christ as Savior, but not being willing to submit to him as Lord
7. God’s seeming limitless patience with our ineptitude
8. People hurting one another and being clueless about it
9. Parents that hurt their kids
10. How easily we give up our dreams
