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!

New Year Trash or Treasure?

You probably know the old saying:  “One man’s trash is another man’s treasure”.  I am not going to try to prove or disprove it, just look at it from a different angle. Cheryl and I were recently walking on a beach in Florida .  A man was walking along with a bag and was picking up trash and putting it in the bag.  Was he picking up things of value? We also saw a different man walking along the same beach with a metal detector.  He would swing it back and forth and would occasionally stop and dig in the sand.  Was he looking for things of value? Both were intent.  Both were focused.  Both were diligent. I’m guessing that the one picking up trash was not looking for things of value.  I’m also guessing that, by picking up trash, he was valuing the beauty of the beach and didn’t want the trash to mar it.  The one with the metal detector, I’m guessing that he was not looking for metallic items of trash but was looking for...

Don't Get Tripped Up

I do enjoy traveling and I keep an eye out for good prices. I also enjoy looking at trends in travel. For a while, the travel industry focused their advertising on taking those trips that might be on your bucket list.   That faded a bit and I started seeing ads about taking the trip of a lifetime. I guess both those campaigns have been waning since I’ve been seeing information about taking an “epic” trip.   Recently I noticed the phrase “unforgettable trip” in advertising.   More recently, I’ve been seeing promotions about taking “sustainable” trips and even “reconnecting to our roots” trips. As I’ve been pondering these advertising campaigns, I thought I’d consider what their ideas encompass and then look at them from a spiritual perspective: 1.   “ Bucket list trips ” are based on a list of the experiences a person might hope to have before they “kick the bucket” (i.e. die).   While I can certainly come up with a bucket list of trips, I’m thinking a bu...

Above My Pay Grade!

We like things that we can study, know and understand.  Sometimes we find it difficult to accept that there are things that might be hidden from our knowledge and understanding. The Scriptures indicate that there are some things hidden by design:  “The Lord our God keeps certain things hidden. But he makes other things known to us and to our children forever. He does it so we can obey all the words of this law.”  (Deut 29:29) Some versions of the Bible translate the hidden things as “secret things”.  Regardless, there are things which have been revealed and things which are kept hidden from us and remain secret. We may chafe at having to deal with the fact that some things remain hidden, but that’s often when faith and trust come in.  The Psalmist wrote:   “O Lord , my heart is not lifted up, my eyes are not raised too high; I do not occupy myself with things too great and too marvelous for me.”  (Ps 131:1) The Psalmist seem to realize that th...
