Walk With Darrell

It is that time of year where we are overloaded with all kinds of advertisements for things that excite our senses that you must have these things to be happy. It is not that having things are wrong, but it is how we want things so bad that we love and value having these things so bad we ignore whether God is telling us to stay away from it.

This Christmas is going to be different as everything else has been this year. This Christmas remember that regardless of what you have or don’t have you can bless others because of Christ.

Sometimes it is a small whisper to our hearts that lead us home. Jesus says He is the way back and He brings us right into the presence of God. Hebrews

Do we fear the Lord? Fear has a few meanings, often fear is used as in being frightened. That is not what I am talking about today. To “fear the Lord” in the bible means, having a deep respect, reverence and awe for God’s power and authority.

David feared the Lord and knew the Lord would deliver him from danger. This hap
