July 20, 2011 by Fritz

Change in Prayer

July 19, 2011 by Fritz

For to me, living means living for Christ, and dying is even better. But if I live, I can do more fruitful work for Christ. So I really don’t know which is better. – Philippians 1:21-22

At some point we stop telling God what we want and start being content with which ever way he decides to handle things.

Bulls, Barns, and Making Money

July 18, 2011 by Fritz

Where no oxen are, the crib is clean: but much increase is by the strength of the ox. – Proverbs 14:4

I am often amused how the Bible has a sanitized way of conveying simple truth.

To an agricultural society, very familiar with the chore of mucking out the barn, it communicates that to make money or conduct business one must put up with a lot of unpleasant things we wish we didn’t have to deal with — no use complaining, it’s just part of the job.
