Welcome to REV'D

As I sat patiently watching a train pass I noticed that the majority of the cars had been “tagged” with graffiti. I began wondering why we humans feel so strongly that we must leave our mark on this world. What I came up with is it is because we need to let people know we were here.

Walking through a grave yard I noticed the dates on a tombstone; 1927-1990. For many the mark we leave is the dash between two dates.

Maybe that is what this blog is about . . . leaving my mark somehow.

FLOW

Our church had a plumbing problem. The drain from the janitor room that connected to the kitchen was clogged and the drain from the kitchen to the main trunk was also clogged. We had plumbers out on four occasions and finally we got the problem fixed.

As I was thinking about this I was reminded how well things work with there is flow and how poorly things work when there is a clog or something damming up the flow. What I am talking about here is not just plumbing or a river, it also applies to blessings.

God’s Words to Abram in Genesis 12:2

2 "I will make you into a great nation and I will bless you;
I will make your name great, and you will be a blessing.

Through God’s Spirit and grace flow spiritual fruit and blessings. Do these blessing flow freely to others or are they clogged by selfishness or indifference? Let me encourage you to ask the Lord to free you to be a blessing to those in your circle of influence today.
