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.

Growing In God

2 Corinthians 3:18 (New Living Translation)

18 So all of us who have had that veil removed can see and reflect the glory of the Lord. And the Lord—who is the Spirit—makes us more and more like him as we are changed into his glorious image.

I watched a video the other night of my granddaughter Tatum as she has learned to jump. I remember her crawling then walking and now she has moved on to bigger things.

One of the downsides of pastoring is the separation from your family. My children and their spouses are in ministry and our schedules center around our pastoral responsibilities in different cities. While I love that technology allows us to see things like Tatum jumping, it isn’t like being there in person.

As we live for Christ, I believe that God gets excited when He sees us change and grow into His image.
