Any relatives or friends who discover this website will be amazed to think that over these years, I have been living off an inheritance, unbeknownst to them!! They have been convinced, over these years that I am poor. They will wonder among themselves what distant relative has bequeathed me this source of wealth previously unannounced. They will want to know how they were left off the beneficiaries list.
Before they develop the idea and courage to send in a request for a loan or a grant, let me hasten to declare:
The inheritance I am living off of is far superior to the wealth accumulated by any industrial titans.
Thanks for visiting. I trust you will be helped and encouraged in your own life by your use of some of these resources.
THE BOOKS offered on this website, will illustrate how I am learning to acquire and experience the early benefits of this inheritance, which is available now to any and to all. The value of this inheritance only increases when we arrive in Glory.
THE ARTICLES posted on this site will include topics that can’t wait for a study in book form. A few posts will detail my experience with the fleeting, sometimes vaporizing coinage of our national and world economy. These disappointing events are many in number and easy to recall!
For a more detailed description of the inheritance I am living off of, see the first Article listing titled “Enjoying My Inheritance.”
THE FORUM will allow some ongoing connection and encouragement between you and me. Your comments and questions are very much welcome following each book and article. As time permits, I will respond to your comments and questions. Where questions and issues are common, my response will be in the FAQ section of each book or each article.
THE PARTICIPATION tab will include practical tools and resources for putting into practice some of this inheritance that involves our interaction with the living God of Heaven.
For me, the lessons presented in these publications have been life-changing. I trust they will be helpful to your growth in believing and leaning on the promises and provisions of God He has offered us.
The “Lord’s Prayer” has been memorized by 100s of millions of people all around the world and is recited every Sunday in hundreds of thousands of churches across the country.
Interestingly this Prayer is recited and sung in 400 year old, archaic, Shakespearean English! Everyone recites the Prayer following the language of the King James Version of the Bible from the year 1611. Many of the words used and their meanings are no longer clear.
“27 Seconds” proposes some simple and basic adjustments to make this Prayer, taught to us by Jesus Christ, even more meaningful in our personal prayer time.
• Uses today’s common language
• Encourages the use of the Prayer on a daily basis instead of weekly or only occasional
• Keeps the same topics Jesus taught
• Changes the plural of persons to singular
• Remains the same 27 seconds time to recite as it did 2000 years ago when Jesus taught it!
If you are like many of us who are so very busy every day, it becomes challenging to plan a time for private prayer with God our Father. The brevity of the prayer Jesus taught the disciples makes it clear Jesus had you and me in mind! If our Father God would like to visit with you and me for 27 seconds each new day, what arguments can we offer that I do not have enough time to meet with the Creator of the Universe?
You are invited to consider this 27 Seconds as a new start for your own life in making meaningful contact with our Father God every new day He gives you.
Just tell him any particular thing is quite impossible and you can recruit him for most any effort or campaign…
Once I begin a study on a topic in life or a topic of the Scriptures, it does not take very long and it has generated a dozen new questions and issues I had not considered before. The Articles I will post at this site are some of my inquiries which I have pursued for my own benefit and understanding. They have been most helpful to me and some friends here close by and I want to make them available for your reading and study. If it is helpful, we can exchange additional thoughts, questions and issues your study generates on these topics through the comments section connected to the book(s) and/or the Articles.
