Frustrations

Dr. Bob — Wed, 10 Mar 2010 21:12:14 +0000

I’m Dr. Bob and for just a mentoring minute, I want to share with you a thought on frustrations. Have you been frustrated because your priorities were not someone else’s priorities. There are times in my busy day when my scheduled appointments cancel, or are even forgotten, because the one I was going to meet [...]

Elevator Faith

Dr. Bob — Sat, 06 Mar 2010 15:11:08 +0000

I’m Dr. Bob and for just a mentoring minute I want talk to you about “Elevator Faith” …yes, “Elevator Faith.” Every time I enter an elevator, or as it’s called in much of the world – a lift, I am reminded of how faith works. When you enter the elevator, all you are required to [...]

Is That All There Is?

Dr. Bob — Tue, 02 Mar 2010 20:43:42 +0000

I’m Dr. Bob and I want to talk to for a mentoring minute on the subject going from comfort zones to zones of fruitfulness. Often when we have worked hard, we finally find ourselves in zones that are comfortable and even rewarding. Have you ever arrived in a comfortable, rewarding place and asked yourself, “Is [...]

It’s Not Fair!

Dr. Bob — Sun, 28 Feb 2010 18:23:45 +0000

I’m Dr. Bob and I want to talk to you for just a mentoring minute. Have you ever said, “It’s not fair?” I know that, far too often, I have had that thought, and the feelings that go with it. I have come to the conclusion that God will use what seems so unfair as [...]

The Full Expression of God’s Love

Dr. Bob — Thu, 25 Feb 2010 13:46:49 +0000

I’m Dr. Bob and I want to talk to you for just a mentoring minute about the full expression of God’s love. Listen for a moment to the New Living Translation of 1 John 4:12. “No one has ever seen God. But if we love each other, God lives in us, and His love has [...]

There are No Surprises in Heaven!

Dr. Bob — Sat, 20 Feb 2010 14:14:00 +0000

Some things happened unexpectedly this morning. I was taken by surprise. My first reaction was to worry. It immediately came upon me. My next reaction was to stop, reach out to God and find the assurance that He was there. For the child of God, His presence is always a reliable reality. His presence is [...]

Spiritual Bonsai

Dr. Bob — Sat, 13 Feb 2010 01:53:16 +0000

My family just returned from visiting the Morikami Gardens in South Florida, in the USA. They are beautiful Japanese gardens. One section is devoted to incredible bonsai plants.

Correcting Upwardly

Dr. Bob — Sun, 17 Jan 2010 18:52:32 +0000

I have been reflecting on those times when I had to bring correction to one of my ministry staff. In all of those cases, I was acutely aware of their value as people. It important that the correction would lead to something positive, even as I had to exact a penalty (there certainly were penalties). [...]

“the least of these My brethren”

Dr. Bob — Sat, 09 Jan 2010 22:15:07 +0000

I have been meditating on Jesus’ words in Matthew 25:49. He clearly tells us that we can find Him in the unloved, the unlovely and the lost. I have become convinced by both the Scriptures and my own experiences that their are dimensions of our relationships with Christ that can only be found by seeing [...]
