Obedience Leads to Life
As a controller, one who wants to decide when and what and how something is going to be done, the hardest thing for me to do was let go and let God take charge of my life. I was certain if I did not make things happen, then my life would be a mess. That was my premise, absolute control by me for me.
Called to Craftsmanship
Shortly before I surrendered my life to the Lord, He called me to start JAMA Racing Ministry so we could minister to His people at the races. Yes, He called me before I surrendered. That really messed with some peoples theology on how God is suppose to call someone into ministry.
The Error of Positive Thinking
Many years ago, before I was walking with the Lord each day, I purchased a popular self help program off of late night television. It included a book along with video and audio tapes. The author stated that you could become successful in any endeavor if you followed his tried and true methods of positive thinking…what a bunch of bologna!
Why God Blesses
This past weekend, we got to interact with some of the top names in NHRA drag racing. For a racing junkie like myself, it does not get any better than to be invited into the pit area (on the other side of the ropes) to interview top fuel, funny car, pro stock car and motorcycle drivers along with some of the best sportsman racers in the business. How did we get selected for such an honor? Please read on.
A Tool for Miracles
The Lord wants to use our every day life to touch those around us for Him. It does not matter what you do, He can use you to reach His people everywhere. I’ve come to understand this principle better today through my actions as a businessman.
Will You Enter
If we will be patient and listen for His voice, He will guide us. What we must do, is not try and accomplish what He has asked us to do in our own strength. One of the hardest things for any ‘type A’ personality to do is sit on your hands and wait for direction.
Unless the Lord Goes With Us
“Danger Will Robinson, danger!” exclaimed the robot. That phrase is from the 1960’s TV show ‘Lost in Space’. It was about a family sent on a space mission that went awry for a multitude of reasons. It was loosely based on the book The Swiss Family Robinson, a novel by Johann David Wyss. Will Robinson, the youngest of the family, was always up for adventure and at times was as inquisitive and reckless as anyone at his age.
