Chicken Wings And Hot Sauce 4-3-2016

Good Morning.

Today I sit at the table with my hot cup of Door County Harvest Blend Coffee pondering and praying. I have some plumbing work to do later today and it isn't a project I am looking forward to.



Hebrews 4:12 For the word of God is living and powerful, sharper than any two edged sword, piercing even to the division of soul and spirit, and of joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.

I am attempting to empty our freezer a little these days assuring nothing has stayed in there too long.  Last night chicken wings were pulled out and I started the thawing process. Now they are seasoned and in the oven. Chicken wings are a very popular treat to eat in the United States. Many restaurants serve them and people can choose from a variety of flavors and spices to have their wings be even more of a delight. Once a year we go with some friends of ours for a wing ding outing. When we order our wings each person usually orders a different flavor. It seems as if we all have one flavor we are fond of. Some like their wings very hot while others like a barbecue flavor. I for one like a variety but today I prefer these wings with some hot sauce.

So where am I going with this?  If you ask people this question you will get many differant answers.
The question is this. "What is your favorite verse in the Bible"? Why is that?

Here is a simple answer. At one time while reading or listening somewhere this verse stood out and impacted them one way or another. It is at that moment the person actually had an encounter with God. They probably have had more than one, hopefully many. But this one stands out. The day or night is not important. But the fact is, God spoke through His Word and it had an impact. Friends, God still speaks and his number one way of speaking today is through His word. Open the Good Book and encounter God. Dust it off. Journal the next verse that stands out. See what God wants to say to you. Or see what He wants you to do.

But like wings in the freezer have no taste yet, a Bible on a book shelf is just a book until opened and used to change hearts.

Have a great day.
