A Father To Follow
September 13, 2013
When I think of my father, I think of this saying: He didnt tell me how to live; he lived, and he let me watch him do it. During my youth, I watched my dad walk with God. He participated in Sunday morning church services, taught an adult Bible-study class, helped with counting the offering, and served as a deacon. Outside of church, he faithfully defended the gospel and read his Bible. I saw him express his love for the Lord through outward actions.
Asa, king of Judah, modeled devotion to God for a season in his life (2 Chron. 14:2). He removed the idols from his kingdom, restored the altar of the Lord, and led the people into a covenant with God (15:8-12). Asas son Jehoshaphat carried on this legacy by seeking the God of his father and walk[ing] in His commandments (17:4). Jehoshaphat purged the land of idol worship (v.6) and sent out priests and Levites to teach Gods law in all of the cities of Judah (vv.7-9).
Jehoshaphats reign resembled that of his father; he faithfully honored Asas godly example. Yet even more important, Jehoshaphats heart took delight in the ways of the Lord (v.6). Today, if youre looking for a father to follow, remember your heavenly Father and take delight in His ways.
We magnify our Father God
With songs of thoughtful praise;
As grateful children we confess
How perfect are His ways. Ball
We honor Gods name when we call Him our Father and live like His Son.
Read: 2 Chronicles 17:1-10

I was a fan of the Los Angeles Rams until they moved. Now,I don’t follow the NFL at all. And I hope LA doesn’t get another NFL team. Why do we need one, when we have the Occidental College Tigers?

Dont have a favorite. This.
Delivered some pizza, guy asks what's your favorite team. I honestly answered, Don't have one.
Got a $5 tip.
I do have a couple of favorite Broncos Cheerleaders, Margaret and Heather:

Well, this year, I must confess that I'm having mixed feelings about the NFL and the direction they seem to be going.
However, if it's not straying too far afield for this thread, I would like to nominate the following college fight song to be included on the "top 100 college fight songs of all time" list.
Ramblin' Wreck from Georgia Tech
