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.

First Day Of The Rest Of Your Life

Lamentations 3:21-23
This I recall to my mind, Therefore I have hope.
The LORD'S lovingkindnesses indeed never cease,
For His compassions never fail.
They are new every morning; Great is Your faithfulness.


“This is the first day of the rest of your life.”
I am sure you’ve heard that saying before. It is amazing how we nonchalantly ignore that fact. So many times we get entrenched in our routine and never experience something new or exciting.

God is a creative being. Just look at the diversity in our universe. So many times we fail to ask, or experience His newness available to us on a daily basis. Some translations say compassions, others say mercies . . . I like the “Message” that says His Merciful Love. Regardless of the word the truth is His love never fails for you. His faithfulness is continual and today is a new day. Go out and make the best of it!
