The Ultimate in Streaming


From a Luddite’s point of view, the technology of streaming seems both simple and complex.  On the simple side of things, streaming seems to have two basic components; there must be something that you are streaming from and something that you are streaming to.  One the complex side of things, well, I couldn’t even begin to understand let alone explain it, so I won’t even go there!  But I would say that what I am about to share represents the ultimate in streaming because:

There are no bandwidth issues.

Too many users can never be a problem.

There is no possibility of a power source being disrupted.

Too good to be true?  Well, read on:


“The one who believes in Me, as the Scripture has said, will have streams of living water flow from deep within him.”  (John 7:38) 

In the future the mountain of the Lord’s temple will endure as the most important of mountains, and will be the most prominent of hills.  All the nations will stream to it.”  (Isaiah 2:2). 

 “There is a river whose streams make glad the city of God, the holy place where the Most High dwells.”  (Psalm 46:4)

For those who have put their faith in Christ, they have living water streaming from within.  One day, the renown of the living God will be so great that all nations will stream to where He dwells.  And where He dwells, there will be a river whose streams make glad the city of God. 

No other streaming could compare to all that!

Not Just Idle Words

I own a 25 year old car.  The body might be falling apart but the engine runs great and it idles smoothly.  Such idling is good. Idling can also have to do with spending too much time doing nothing or being without purpose or being engaged in that which is pointless.  Such idling is not good. What if I were to tell you that I know of something that is the about as far as being without purpose as you can get?  Would you want it? Here is that something:  “They are not just idle words for you—they are your life. By them you will live long in the land you are crossing the Jordan to possess.”  ( Deut 32:47) Other versions of the Bible use some different words for that first phrase in the verse and such can be helpful in assessing how important the words really are: “Not meaningless words…”   “These are not just useless words…”   “No empty word for you…”   “Not unimportant words…”   “Not useless words…”   ...

Very Present

I love words that have multiple meanings but the same spelling.  Take the word “present” for example.  You may be thinking of “present”, as in a gift.  Gotta love those! But I’m thinking of “present”, as in existing now or occurring now. I’m also thinking of “present”, as in being at hand. Why those two latter ones, you might ask, why not just go with the gift! Well, I recently read Psalm 46, and here is the first verse:   “God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble.” Some theologians suggest the word “present” in this Psalm has the meaning of “well proven”.  I certainly can appreciate that. But I’ve been wondering if “present” could include the meaning of “now existing or now occurring”.  That is, God is exists now and is occurring in our lives. Furthermore, I’ve been wondering if “present” could also include “being at hand”.  That is, God is here, right now, with us.   And with even further wondering, the wo...

Be Amazed!

Be amazed… Jesus welcomed sinners …The Pharisees and legal experts were grumbling, saying, “This man welcomes sinners… (Luke 15:2) Jesus hung out with sinners …And when they saw it, they all grumbled, “He has gone in to be the guest of a man who is a sinner.” (Luke 19:7) Jesus ate with sinners …And when the Pharisees saw this, they said to his disciples, “Why does your teacher eat with tax collectors and sinners?” (Matt 9:11) Jesus was a friend of sinners …The Son of Man came eating and drinking, and they say, ‘Look at him! A glutton and a drunkard, a friend of tax collectors and sinners!’ (Matt 11:19) With Jesus being so welcoming, what did people do? People came to see Him …They came to Philip, who was from Bethsaida in Galilee, with a request. “Sir,” they said, “we would like to see Jesus.” (John 12:21) People came to hear Him …Now the tax collectors and sinners were all drawing near to hear him. (Luke 15:1) People followed Him …While Jesus was having dinner at Levi’s house, many ta...
