2019: Another Year Is Gone. by Tom Wacaster. Someone once noted, "Many people look forward to the New Year for a new start on old habits." I don't know who wrote those pithy words, but he must have been some blood kin to Solomon. The passing of one year and the dawn of the next always seems to bring out the best of good intentions. TOM'S PEN: GIVE ME ONE SOUL TODAY The words of that popular song ought to be on our lips and in our hearts: “Lead me to some soul today, oh teach me Lord just what to say! Friends of mine are lost in sin, and cannot find their way. Few there are who seem to care; few there are who pray. Melt my heart and fill my life. Give me one soul today!”.

An incident from the American Revolution illustrates what tragedy can result from procrastination. It is reported that Colonel Rahl, commander of the British troops in Trenton, New Jersey, was playing cards when a courier brought an urgent message stating that TOM'S PEN: 02/01/2015 Based upon a true story, ‘The Terminal’ is an amusing tale of an imaginary man, Viktor Navorski, who arrives at New York’s John F. Kennedy International Airport only to discover that his passport is suddenly no longer valid due to an outbreak of a civil war in Krakozhia, his homeland. As a result, the United States no longer recognizes Krakozhia as a sovereign nation, and Mr. Navorski is TOM'S PEN: GRANDPA, TELL ME ABOUT THE GOOD OLD DAYS Some years ago The Judds had a country song that quickly became a number one hit. The title was, “Grandpa, Tell Me About the Good Old Days.” It reflects a time not all that long ago when the influence of God’s word was still having an impact upon our society. TOM'S PEN: HAVE NO FELLOWSHIP WITH THE UNFRUITFUL WORKS OF When Paul wrote to the Ephesians he clearly admonished them: “ And have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather even reprove them” (Eph. 5:11). Fellowship is the joint participation and common bond that exists between brothers and sistersin Christ.

The apostle Paul stressed the importance of preaching the word, whether in season or out of season: “ For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears; and they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables” (2 Tim. 4:3-4).TOM'S PEN

Someone once said, "Thanksgiving is a state of mind, and not necessarily an expression of thought." Was he implying that one could "be" thankful while failing to express that thanks in so many words? If so, he would be wrong. No doubt thanksgiving begins in the heart. It starts with thinking about those who have blessed our lives in so many ways. It includes thinking about the different ways in which they have blessed our lives with a word of encouragement, a pat on the back, financial aid in time of need, or just being there when needed. In the first two verses of this epistle we are struck with the realization that Paul, though in prison in Rome, was thinking about his brethren in Philippi. From that prison cell in Rome Paul reflected upon their spiritual status. He refers to them as "saints." They were separated from the world, set aside for service unto the Father. As he thought on those brethren in Philippi, he also thought about their spiritual state. They were "in Christ," wherein are located all spiritual blessings (Eph. 1:3). As he thought on those brethren, he mentions their spiritual stature. That little congregation had matured to the point where they had appointed "bishops and deacons." Finally, Paul thought about their spiritual source of strength, namely "God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ." I wonder how many times Paul had thought about those brethren in Philippi. When Epaphroditus arrived from Philippi bearing news of the situation back home, one can only wonder how the memories of Lydia, the unnamed jailor and others must have flooded his Paul's mind. When he penned this letter and placed it in the hands of Epaphroditus to carry back to them, he was thinkingabout them (1:1-2).
His fond memories of the brethren in Philippi drove him to his knees in thanksgiving. He was thankful for their fellowship in the furtherance of the gospel (1:5). From the "first day" of their conversion they were involved with Paul in the greatest work on the face of the earth - spreading the gospel to lost and dying humanity. Reflecting upon those good brethren, Paul was thankful for their faithfulness "from the first day until now" (1:5). Their past record provided Paul with confidence that the Lord would "perfect it until the day of Jesus Christ" (1:6). How many times have we expressed our thankfulness to our brethren for their faithfulness in determining to do what is right in the sight of God? Next, Paul was thankful for their fearless involvement in the defense and confirmation of the gospel (1:7). Finally, Paul was thankful for their friendship "in the tender mercies of Christ Jesus" (1:8). These brethren had stood at Paul's side through "thick and thin." They were, above all, his friend - and that speaks volumes of the saints in Philippi. Years ago, when speaker of the house Sam Rayburn heard that he had terminal cancer, he shocked everyone when he announced that he was going back to his small town in Bonham, Texas. Everyone said to him: They have got the finest facilities in Washington, D. C., why go back to that little town? Rayburn's words have been quoted so often that some of you have probably heard them. He said: "Because in Bohman, Texas, they know if you're sick and they care when you die." We need our friends; and it was for his friends in Philippi that Paul gave thanks. Now let me ask you: Is thanksgiving merely a state of mind, or is it not also, and perhaps more importantly, an expression of appreciation? Ask the brethren in Philippi.Older Posts
