Proverbs 29:25 MSG
The fear of human opinion disables; trusting in GOD protects you from that.

The Lord’s wisdom is seen in arranging the smallest events so as to produce great results. Everything, the most minute … as well as the most magnificent, is ordered by the Lord.
Charles Spurgeon

1 Corinthians 1:10

New International Version



A Church Divided Over Leaders
I appeal to you, brothers and sisters, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that all of you agree with one another in what you say and that there be no divisions among you, but that you be perfectly united in mind and thought.

John Ed's Got a Minute? Daily Meditation

May 21, 2026
Hi, I'm John Ed Mathison, and a good Thursday to you!

Years ago, many roads in the south were dirt roads and became muddy and a big mess during rainy weather. One day a young boy was traveling down such a road with his father. They came up on a neatly dressed man whose car was stuck in the mud. The man was standing in the mud trying to get his car out. The father stopped and asked the man, “How are you doing?” The man looked at him, with a confident smile on his face and said, “Tired, oh so tired, but I’m still trying.” The father and the boy got out of their car and helped him get unstuck and on his way. The father said to his son, “Remember what that man said – tired, oh so tired, but still trying.” That’s a great lesson for life. When you get tired, don’t quit, keep trying. You never know who will come along to give you help.

John Ed's Got a Minute? Daily Meditation

May 20, 2026
Hi, I'm John Ed Mathison, and a good Wednesday to you!

The whole world was shocked a few years ago when we watched Notre Dame De Paris engulfed in flames. A huge cloud of smoke covered Paris. People looked on in anguish and dismay. It wasn’t known if any of the valuable relics from inside could be saved. The Chaplain of the Paris fire brigade, Rev. Jean-Marc Fournier courageously went back several times into the burning flames to rescue holy artifacts – including the crown of thorns, which many believe was worn by Jesus Christ. People have dubbed Rev. Fournier as an absolute hero. His fellow fire fighters who accompanied him said that he was their leader, and they went without fear. Today, be courageous! Be a leader! Step out! Take a risk! Do something significant where you are.
