>One very important thing that I forgot to mention was that despite all the financial problems Terri and I had we never stopped tithing. On one occasion we actually tithed all the money we actually had at the time believing in our hearts that God would take care of us ... and He did. We never suffered. We always had food, shelter and the amenities that we needed.

I'm not going to lie, it was hard. Initially I was very reluctant to tithe at all. It took a lot of faith and trust in God to actually give the ten percent of our income. It was a challenge. A big challenge. Ultimately our actions were rewarded. True to His word God was faithful to us when we stepped out and were faithful to God.

In the clip I mention receiving a large sum of money at the exact moment we needed it. That is actually what happened. I can tell you however that the old saying is true, 'money comes and money goes'. The money God blessed us with was spent in the ways it was intended for and we now find ourselves living on faith once again. God is always teaching us about money and faith. Most importantly not to put our faith in money but to fully trust God. This is the real message. Again, we never suffer and our needs are always provided for.

There was a lot of content that didn't make it into the video. It started out with me trying to explain taking a leap of faith using scenes from Empire Strikes Back (Star Wars) and The Last Crusade (Indiana Jones). Perhaps its better for everybody that my ramblings ended up on the cutting room floor so to speak.

Chasing Shadows of the Past: A Railroad Adventure with Kansas City Southern's Vintage F-Series Locomotives

Photos and Story by Ken Hulsey In April 2022, I received a tip from a fellow railfan on Facebook that the Kansas City Southern Executive Train would be in Baton Rouge . To my excitement, I spotted a set of vintage FP9/F9B diesel locomotives resting on a bridge over the 110 freeway while driving toward downtown. My enthusiasm for the F-series locomotives compelled me to navigate some of Louisiana's poorly designed streets (and that’s saying something) to get close to the railyard. I made my way through what felt like a jungle that belonged somewhere in Borneo, only to climb a steep hill to reach the railyard.

Just a Thought: Designed by God | Pastor Steve Smothermon

Designed by God Psalm 139 is a profound reminder of God's intimate knowledge and omnipresence in our lives. The psalm opens with a declaration of God's deep knowledge of the individual: "O Lord, you have searched me and known me." This knowledge is not just superficial awareness, but a profound, penetrating understanding of all our ways. The psalmist acknowledges that before a word is on our tongues, God knows it completely. This reveals a God who is not distant or disinterested but is deeply engaged with the intricacies of our lives, understanding our thoughts and actions better than we understand them ourselves.
