Changed By Chastening
By Rev. Dean Beaty 9/7/09
Hebrews 12:5-7 “And ye have forgotten the exhortation which speaketh unto you as unto children, My son, despise not thou the chastening of the Lord, nor faint when thou art rebuked of him: For whom the Lord loveth he chasteneth, and scourgeth every son whom he receiveth. If ye endure chastening, God dealeth with you as with sons; for what son is he whom the father chasteneth not?” (KJV)

I know my Father loves me for He’s on my case each day.

Forward Gears But No Reverse
By Rev. Dean Beaty 10/03/09

Choices that we make last far beyond today.
And there is no reverse along our life's highway.
That doesn't mean to say we can't go left or right.
But reversing what's been done is an idiot's delight.

Now we can make amends for bad choices that we made.
But they are not erased it only makes them fade.
Water poured upon the sand can't be put back in the cup.
Can a wrong that we have done ever t ruly be made up?

Be careful what you sow for… Continue

God Given Gifts
By Rev. Dean Beaty 9/24/09
I Corinthians 9:27 “But I keep under my body, and bring
it into subjection: lest that by any means, when I have preached
to others, I myself should be a castaway.” (KJV)

Each talent that I have is given from the Lord.
On each one of His servants these gifts have been outpoured.
They will be empowered to fulfill our Lord’s design.
The power is all from God and none of it is mine.

Just take a look at Moses who in his own flesh tried.
But all that he acc… Continue

God’s Great Gifts
By Rev. Dean Beaty 9/23/09
James 1:17 “Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above,
and cometh down from the Father of lights, with whom is no
variableness, neither shadow of turning.” (KJV)

In God’s Word the story is told.
When Christ was born they brought Him gold.
For most today the same is true.
Great gifts are given, all thanks to You.
Minds to think and eyes to see,
A voice to speak to men of Thee.

But how it must make God’s Heart ache,
When men use these His l… Continue

I Am Not a Nobody
By Rev. Dean Beaty 9/16/09
I Corinthians 2:9 “Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard,
neither have entered into the heart of man, the things
which God hath prepared for them that love him.” (KJV)

I am not a nobody, for Jesus died for me.
He shed His blood on Calvary from sin to set me free.
I trusted in His saving grace and became a child of God.
My Father is the King of Kings. Now a different path I trod.

I am not a nobody, I’m made in God’s image.
You can find it written right th… Continue
