Making Connections Review December 14 Isaiah 9:1-7, John 10:29-39   Making Connections:   Though today's market is flooded with baby name books, the importance of name & character has really been lost in today's western culture. While trends range from classic or family names to unique names, they rarely seem related to character.  In Biblical times, children received names based on their parents' hopes for them or because of something distinctive in & around their birth. God's names reflect His character as well: Jehovah Jireh - The Lord Will Provide; El Elyon - The Most High God; El Shaddai - Lord God Almighty; Jehovah Rapha - The Lord That Heals.   Isaiah 9 gives some names that certainly don't seem fitting for an ordinary baby, most especially one born in a stable: Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father,  Prince of Peace . Can you imagine bigger names to live up to? They reveal that Jesus is not an ordinary baby, but God in

December 13 Isaiah  7:14 , Matthew 1:18-25, Philippians 2:5-10, Hebrews 2:17   Making Connections:   Imagine: You are engaged & some months before the wedding, your fiance comes to you & says she is pregnant. You know the child is not yours, but can you believe her story that the child is somehow from the Holy Spirit, and that your future bride is still a virgin? Or on the flip side - you are engaged to be married when an angel visits you & tells you that the Holy Spirit will overshadow you, creating within you a child. Though yet a virgin, you will be a mother. And you must tell your fiance... if he doesn't believe your story, he might have you stoned for adultery. Meanwhile, you can see & feel the evidence of this child growing within your own body.   The wonder & the scandal of the virgin birth is sometimes lost through our familiarity with the story. We can speak of it without really thinking about what it means, or what this might have been

December 12 Psalm 110, Genesis 14:18-20, Hebrews 7:23-28   Making Connections:   Most of us today are far removed from some of the roles given to the Messiah. Less than ten countries in the world have an absolute monarchy with a king. We have many pastores & teachers of God's word, but don't see prophets like those in Biblical times. The priests of today are also very different from the  Levitical priesthood  of Israel & certainly do not make sacrifices for our sin. Because of this, sometimes I think we don't have as rich an understanding of what it means that Jesus filled the roles that we have seen of king, prophet, & now priest. Mechizedek is also a strange character, considering he appears for only two verses in Genesis, one in Psalms, and then is given a lot of weight in Hebrews. So how does this figure broaden our understanding of Jesus' work & character?   Melchiezedek was the king of righteousness (the meaning of his name) &

Dream Essentials Sleep Serum Review and Win Well, this another one of those fabulous Products by Dream Essentials a very cool idea with the Sleeping Serum  to calm you and to relax the body and mind! Fabric very soft to wear around the face. Concept is a fabulous idea but seriously I cant say I am a fan of this Strapless Mask!!! Now don't get me wrong I do like this company products but this particular Dream Essentials Mask wasn't a winner with me,  Because the Tape that has to be put on the Mask is annoying to me!!

December 11 Psalm 16:7-11, Acts 2:25-33. Philippians 3:8-16 Making Connections: From atheists to agnostics, at every end of the spectrum of belief (or disbelief), people share a common hope: the hope of everlasting life. We see its pursuit in health fads which promise longer life; in people choosing to cryogenically freeze their bodies in the case they might be someday thawed & restored; in the metaphoric (or actual) quest for the fountain of youth; and even in obsession over vampires, who are often glorified, possessing eternal life & youth. Generally speaking, no matter what you believe, you don't want to die. And if you do, you want to come back or live another kind of life in paradise. Rather that trusting in some other means or even his own wealth, David trusted in God for his preservation. Like Job did, he had some sense that God would not abandon him to Sheol, but that at God's hands he would find pleasures that last forever. When his life ha
