The ONE THING

The random ruminations of a man on the run. The goal is to run this race of life well, encouraging as many as I can along the way, and to eventually meet my Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ and thank Him for the trip. (I am also prone to shamelessly brag on my perfect grandchildren.)

The ONE THING for today

I’ve started thinkSing

Posted on April 30, 2020 by pastorkemp • 4 Comments

Rituals are markers that help us stay on track and not lose our way. My morning rituals include a little litany that I say out loud every day.  Part of it includes what I call my “T-H-I-N-K” affirmations.  It goes like this… I will think before I speak, by asking myself: T – Is it … Continue reading →

The Obvious Choice

Posted on April 29, 2020 by pastorkemp • 1 Comment

Do you know the trouble with the most obvious choice?  The trouble is that it’s so obvious. If the goal is to be average, predictable, and safe…  If you’re happy with being a part of the crowd, a cog in the wheel, just another number, then go for the obvious. It will surprise no one … Continue reading →

Who am I?

A true farmer is “wedded” to the land. For them, working the land, sowing the seed, and gathering in the harvest is about more than making money. While a wise farmer operates their farm like a business, their motivation for farming is about more than making a profit.  A farmer doesn’t farm for what’s in … Continue reading →

Of course I’m right!

Beware of moralizing your tastes, as in… “My way is the right way.” No, your way is the way you do it. Others may do it differently (and even better). Your decision to make your tastes and preferences a moral choice instead of just a choice could very well keep you from learning a better … Continue reading →

Church for free

Posted on April 26, 2020 by pastorkemp • Leave a comment

Would you go to another church if they had a better preacher and worship leader?  If their services and programs were better and more professionally operated?  A lot of people will today.  Don’t you be one of them.  Church is about being a part of a family.  You don’t love your grandparents because they know … Continue reading →

The Hope Whisperer

Posted on April 24, 2020 by pastorkemp • Leave a comment

We’ve looked at hope for the last three days. Remember, on Tuesday I wrote: Everyday, you are living somewhere between hope and despair and it will be hope that gets you through. Before we move on to something else, let me remind you that this not only describes you, but everyone around you. The ONE … Continue reading →

Sow towards your hope

Posted on April 22, 2020 by pastorkemp • Leave a comment

In all your doings don’t lose sight of what you’re hoping for. Don’t allow the demands of today to rob you of investing in your tomorrows. This day only lasts a few hours but, by God’s grace, you have a long string of tomorrows waiting on you. Be sure to sow seeds towards your hope … Continue reading →

Name your hope

Posted on April 21, 2020 by pastorkemp • Leave a comment

Always having something out there you are hoping for. Everyday, you are living somewhere between hope and despair and it will be hope that gets you through. Life wasn’t meant to be run on autopilot; you’ve got to be aiming for something, striving for something, holding on for something. Be patient, hopes are seldom achieved … Continue reading →
