Our home overlooks a country lane with a large field presently planted in tall field corn across from us. We are so blessed to have this view of "preserved farmland", meaning there is a restriction on the deed limiting present and future use to agriculture. This outstanding view is one of the main reasons we bought our present home eleven years ago. Throughout the year we have a variety of views, not only based on the season but the type of crop planted. Last night I sat outside before sunset and observed God's creation using my senses. I can share a part of the view in the above photo. I saw not only the beauty of nature but neighbors talking, bicycles going by, a parachute in the distance. I hear many sounds from the natural, such as buzzing insects, to chirping birds, to the locusts later on. I also may hear man-made sounds such as farm machinery and my neighbor sighting in a rifle. Last night it was a neutral smell, which is not always the case; sometimes we do get some agricultural odors that aren't so pleasant and occasionally a wonderful chocolate smell from a processing plant in Mount Joy. I felt the gentle breeze on the pleasant evening. As far as taste I had a luscious peach! I purposefully tried to "Stop and consider the wondrous works of God." Sometimes in our busy lives stopping can be hard. During Job's trial he had four human "comforters". Elihu, who was younger, spoke after the three older friends. His viewpoint on Job's suffering is surely not the final one, and like all human perspectives on this mysterious subject of suffering, it is flawed and incomplete. (God has the final word later in the book.) But Elihu makes some interesting points in trying to minister to Job that I believe are very helpful, particularly at the end of his discourse where he points to God's creative wonders. He urges Job to "Stop and consider the wondrous works of God."  I believe that's a good exercise in getting a proper perspective on any matter.  A few verses earlier Elihu declared, "How great is God--beyond our understanding!" (36:26). Today, let me encourage you to "Stop and consider the wondrous works of God".  His wonders abound surrounding us night and day. And then hear this important reminder from Elihu; "Remember to extol His work, which men have praised in song" (Job 36:24). Be encouraged today, Stephen & Brooksyne Weber Daily prayer:  Father, we do extol Your work and praise You with our lips, with our voice and with our devotion to follow You all the days of our lives. We stop and consider Your great wonders and mighty works as we acknowledge You to be the Creator of all things. Your ways are perfect and beyond human understanding. It is all the more reason why we must rely on Your guidance and not lean on our own understanding. Today we acknowledge You in all our ways and ask You to direct our paths and increase our understanding in the name of Jesus.  Amen. Additional thought: Monday night as we were returning from Gettysburg (see yesterday's message) we passed a little town along Route 30 called New Oxford. Many were sitting out on their front porch talking or reading a magazine. Anna noticed that in the stretch we were on no one was piddling with their cell phone, which has become so typical. I had an embarrassing experience Sunday which illustrates why among several reasons I don't like to piddle with my cell phone. I bluntly just seem to rather klutzy with small technology. In Sunday School class we were discussing a verse in the Scriptures and although I had a New Testament with eight versions I wanted to see how another version handled the text. I decided I would look it up on my cell phone. That should be quiet. My intent was to open the browser and then go to the Bible Gateway site to find the verse in the translation I was curious about. Well I looked at my phone and tapped the browser button and lo and behold it started loudly playing the company birthday song I shared last week and then I panicked and couldn't get it to turn off. Apparently the last thing I had open on the cell phone browser was this page with the birthday song audio file! Well I suppose it added a bit of humor to the class at my expense.

A daily, Bible-based message of hope, encouragement and exhortation. The online Bible teaching ministry of Stephen & Brooksyne Weber. Home · About Us · Archives · Podcast · Free email ·   ·     ·    Click here to support our ministry. <Previous Message       ·       Archive edition Tuesday, July 30, 2013 Old stone farmhouse on the Gettysburg Battlefield (Click on photo for larger image) "Not Being Conformed" Listen to this message on your audio player "Do not conform any longer to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind" (Romans 12:2). Our Amish friends, Jesse and Anna Ruth, can lead us to some colorful experiences. Many of us find the Amish way of life interesting, a living example of how people used to live. So what way of life do the Amish find interesting? Most Amish in our area have regular association with those who live modern lives and they themselves increasingly use much modern technology with several notable exceptions, such as the horse and buggie. Our local Costco store has many Amish shoppers and even a special hitching area for their horse and buggies. I really don't think they find too much intrigue with the modern way of life! Our friend Jesse is a dairy farmer and also a skilled stonemason. Several times he has told us about a job he had building an old-fashioned, open hearth fireplace and chimney for a woman and her two daughters who live in the Gettysburg area. Jesse was intrigued by their lifestyle and wanted me to see it along with his family so yesterday we all piled into a rented van and drove over to Gettysburg. (Brooksyne and Ester were also invited but they are out in Arkansas for a funeral.) We left early in the morning and a highlight for the five children along the way was breakfast at Chick-fil-A and then playing in the play area. We drove around the Gettysburg Battlefield before our visit with the three women in the early afternoon. The women live out in the country in a compound type setting with a high stockade fence around it accessible by a gate also made of closed stockade fence. Jesse had to go up to the gate to the have the women open it and as we drove in two women dressed in what seemed like costumes from Old Sturbridge Village* greeted us and then shut the gate after we entered. That was creepy to me! Immediately I noted signs that they prohibited cell phones and smoking and found right a way that photos were also not permitted. I would have a lot of interesting photos!!! As much as possible these women choose to live in a period similar to the early 1800's with no running water, electricity or anything modern. They carry water in from the well using buckets. An outhouse is used with a humanure system of recycling human waste into compost. They even show us a lamb's ear plant that can be used in place of toilet paper. They were so proud to show us how the humanure composting system worked and at one point removed a layer of straw where it was composting and by hand scooped up a handful of "compost". As much as possible they are entirely self-sufficient from the outside world, growing their own fruits and vegetables, milking a cow and goat, several chickens for eggs, etc. They barter for whatever else is needed. I found myself very claustrophobic inside the compound and on the way home found out that Jesse and Anna Ruth felt the same way. Our visit was to be two hours but we were "trapped" in the compound for five hours due to the very engaging, friendly women who welcomed us outsiders and were pleased to share their lifestyle with us. There's so much more I could describe but I was so relieved when they finally opened the gate for us and stood on each side in their 1800's dresses waving goodbye as we departed out to the main highway. We were all glad to be back out on the main road and sure had an interesting talk on the way back to Lancaster County. Jesse knows I write these daily messages and was quite sure the experience might be illustrative material for today. I asked him what verse he would suggest and he referred to the part in our daily text about not being conformed to the world. However, honestly I am not sure what motivates these women to live as they do. Apparently there is a network they are in association with worldwide that live similarly and I really didn't get the sense that they were necessarily religiously motivated, but more so due to what they perceive as the unhealthy aspects of modern life and a very pure form of environmentalism. They don't use any insecticides, although they did use a fly swatter as we sat on old chairs in the plain wood floor kitchen and had some herbal tea and organic home-made pastries! (I am not even sure that they washed their hands after demonstrating the humanure compost pile and then serving us food!!!) This is not the typical message we prepare and without Brooksyne's assistance I am a bit flabbergasted on what spiritual lesson to get out of my experience yesterday. So let me end with a spiritual thought that may or may not seem to be related. We certainly are called not to be conformed to the world and this non-conformity may be expressed in different ways. I recall a special moment in my personal discipleship when a fellow believer shared with me over forty years ago a spiritual concept based on Romans 12:2. "Do not conform any longer to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind." The process of breaking conformity to the world and being transformed into spiritual conformity to Christ continues in my life through the renewing of my mind.  There have been many setbacks along the way but God continues the transformation process and I am assured that He will carry it on to completion until the day He calls me home. Be encouraged today, Stephen & Brooksyne Weber Photos from the Gettysburg Battlefield (As mentioned in the message photos were not permitted on the compound we visited) This was the scene of one of the bloodiest places during the three day battle which took place in July 150 years ago. It is a very solemn site. This barn had a cannonball lodged in the hole till just several years ago we were told . We weren't told how or why it was removed. Split rail fences are all through the park. The Gettysburg Battlefield has many statues and monuments. This one is of General Lee. This is the second tower we encountered in our drive through the park. Jesse, Anna Ruth and I were pretty tired by this point and stayed down on the ground but four of the children, with boundless energy, went up to the top. This truck really has nothing to do with the Battlefield but... I like old trucks! As I finished today's message it occured to me to check out Google maps. The secluded compound is indeed quite visible from a satellite view which shows the inside and this streetview photo shows the stockade and entrance gate. I feel it would be inappropriate to share the location. Today's Suggested Music and Supplemental Resources "Do Not Be Conformed To This World" Sermon by John Piper  Video  Since today's message was sparse in spiritual teaching I will post this for those who may want to explore the topic of not being conformed to the world! * Old Sturbridge Village is a recreated village from 1830's New England where the people dress in costume from the period. For the chronically curious here are instructions for making your own humanure composting system including videos. Note: Check with local codes before proceeding!

Daily Encouragement (07/29/13) "Outstanding Apostles"

Home · About Us · Archives · Podcast · Free email ·   ·     ·    Click here to support our ministry. <Previous Message       ·       Archive edition Monday, July 29, 2013 We both liked to ride in the back up of pickups as kids so we   suppose these children do as well! "Outstanding Apostles" Listen to this message on your audio player "Greet Andronicus and Junias, my relatives who have been in prison with me. They are outstanding among the apostles, and they were in Christ before I was" (Romans 16:7). This last Saturday afternoon, Chad Phelps, a young youth pastor and his wife Courtney, were killed in a bus accident in Indiana while returning with a group from a church camp. Another woman was also killed and many were injured so we can imagine the grief and bewilderment that church is experiencing. They were less than 1 mile from the church they were headed to. The bus driver reported that he lost his brakes and that's something I can identify with when I drove a church group to an event over 30 years ago. * A church deacon stated, "All these folks are special to us as members here, as friends. Our church grieves now. They're with God in heaven. We know that without a doubt, but we grieve the fact they're not here with us. We miss them. We ask for your prayer and support. We ask for your respect for the families that have lost loved ones." Consider the grief of this loss early in a life of ministry service for Christ. Chad had likely spent years in preparation for ministry and was serving in a hard area (Youth ministry is hard work!). He and his wife were parents of a young child and expecting their second child. Yesterday in our church service we heard a speaker that reminded me of another couple who died in an auto accident. Al and Thata Book, were a wonderful missionary couple in our church who both died in an automobile accident in Africa ten years ago. They had first gone to Africa in 1950 and were returning for another stint of short-term service while in their seventies when the accident happened. They were a truly remarkable couple, full of enthusiasm, encouragement and spiritual vigor to the very end. I shared the Word with the grieving congregation following their accident and used the rather obscure and likey rarely considered daily verse as my text. "Greet Andronicus and Junias, my relatives who have been in prison with me. They are outstanding among the apostles, and they were in Christ before I was." Although we don't use the term "apostles" to describe ministry leaders in our particular circle, this couple certainly had apostolic qualities. The apostle Paul greets two otherwise unknown leaders, Andronicus and Junias, whom he recognized were "outstanding among the apostles." Even though this is all we know about them through the Scriptures they apparently made a tremendous contribution to the body of Christ in their time, for Paul to use the term "outstanding." Other versions state "who are of note among the apostles" (KJV), "held in high esteem among the apostles" (Amplified). I am convinced there are scores of people populating heaven who have faithfully served the Lord during their relatively brief tenure of service on earth. For some, like the young youth pastor and his wife, it's a brief tenure even as we reckon briefness. For other like Al and Thata it's after a long life of service on this side of eternity. Most of these people are not widely known while serving, many known only to those in their own local church.  But they made an outstanding impact on others and stayed faithful to the end like Al and Thata and Chad and Courtney. Let us remain faithful! Be encouraged today, Stephen & Brooksyne Weber Daily prayer: Father, You have called us to a journey of faith where we learn to trust You for all that we have need of, for the present and the future - in our relationships, our health,  our earthly provisions and our spiritual needs.  Like the songwriter, Louisa Stead, wrote; "I'm so glad I learned to trust You, precious Jesus, Savior, Friend; For I know that You are with me; Will be with me to the end.  Jesus, Jesus How I trust You, How I've proved You o'er and o'er;  Jesus, Jesus, precious Jesus,  O for grace to trust You more."  Help us to find the sweetness of wholeheartedly trusting in You, we pray in Jesus' name.  Amen. We pray for the church in Indiana and all those who grieve, as well as those who are recovering from their injuries. Saturday afternoon I went to a car show along Main Street in Mount Joy The main street along with some side streets was lined with old cars and truck. I suppose this was a bus! This was a pickup truck! Folks sat behind their cars and were pleased when others showed interest. This old station wagon had a nostalgic "out for a family picnic" look. An old police car.
