  1. Spiritual Freedom - November Duct Tape for the Soul

    November 2023

    Spiritual Freedom

    John 8:36 reads, "If the Son therefore shall make you free, ye are free indeed.

    I said it would never happen, but once Olly (the inside puppy) arrived in our home, everyone was smitten! Once he learned to climb out of the one pen, I purchased a taller one I knew he would never escape. I was glad that after several weeks of exhausted attempts, he finally gave up trying. When I packed the shorter pen for a family trip, my wife commented that the dog would easily jump out. I assured her he wouldn't even try because he had been convinced he couldn't. I was right!

  2. Healing & Foregiveness - October Duct Tape for the Soul

    October 2023

    Healing & Forgiveness

    I recently had an abrasion on my left elbow that I didn’t discover for a few days, leading to an infection and the need for antibiotics. I have no idea what happened or how long it was there. Occasionally, I bump and rub against things as I help customers or work around the house. Scrapes and cuts are bound to happen.

Mathew 18: 21- 22 (KJV) teaches: Then came Peter to him and said, Lord, how oft shall my brother sin against me, and I forgive him? Till seven times? Jesus saith unto him, I say not...

    Pride

    James 4:6 "God resisteth the proud, but giveth grace unto the humble."  As we study the Bible, it often refers to pride as something God will not tolerate. Proverbs 16:5 "Every one that is proud in heart is an abomination to the LORD."
