A Light for the Path

Psalm 119:105

A healthy fear of God will do much to deter us from sin. When we have a proper fear of the living Lord, we live a cleaner life.

Any born-again person who sins wilfully has momentarily blocked out his fear of God. You and I can do that.

When we actively engage in sin, we consciously put aside what we know to be the truth about God. We suppress the knowledge of Him in our hearts and minds. We lie to ourselves by saying, "We'll get by. God won't mind so much."

Winnipeg Police Investigate Fatal Incident on Arlington Street

At approximately 2:00 a.m. on November 11, 2023, the Winnipeg Police Service responded to a distressing call regarding an injured male lying on a sidewalk in the 1100 block of Arlington Street. 

Officers provided the adult male victim with emergency medical care with the application of a chest seal and CPR. He was transported to hospital in critical condition and later pronounced deceased.

The Homicide Unit continues to investigate, and interviews are ongoing.

Tender and Tolerant

Proverbs 18:4

How far you go in life depends on your being tender with the young, compassionate with the aged, sympathetic with the striving, and tolerant of the weak and the strong. Because someday in life you will have been all of these.–George Washington Carver

I have admired those words for years. They reflect a perspective easily forgotten in a dizzy schedule of demands and deadlines.

Providence University’s High School Athlete of the Month – Ryleigh Schellenberg

It’s no wonder Ryleigh Schellenberg is Providence University’s High School Athlete of the Month – volleyball, basketball, badminton, and track and field – she does it all!

Ryleigh currently attends Rosenort School, where she’s an outstanding member of the Rosenort Red Hawks volleyball, basketball, badminton, and track and field teams. She also plays for the 17U Providence Jr Pilots volleyball team, and plays beach volleyball in the summer to keep her skills sharp.

But it’s not just her athletic talent that makes her stand out.

Look Heavenward

Proverbs 5:21

God is exacting in His knowledge.... Not one detail escapes His attention.... He knows everything about us. We are an open book before Him.

Furthermore, He is immutably faithful.

And yet He deliberately surprises us with difficult assignments, premature or unexpected deaths, lost jobs, and disappointing circumstances along the journey, even while we're in the nucleus of His will.

Pleasure and Pain

Psalm 25:2

It's impossible to pass through life without experiencing times when you cannot see your way through a deep valley. Times when the package delivered at the back door comes delivered in the ugly wrappingof death or affliction or illness or even divorce.

Golden West celebrates long-time employee

Golden West Broadcasting hosted a celebration lunch for long-time member Aaron Matthews yesterday as he spent his final day with the company.

Aaron worked part-time for the radio station since joining in 2017 and was able to live out his dream, of working in the radio industry in his hometown.

He was in charge of our recycling department, helped our admin team, joined our on-air announcers for shows, helped out with promotions, and added some liveliness to our staff meetings weekly.

The Urgency of the Hour

Revelation 3:11

If you live in the light of Christ's return each day of your life, it does wonders for your perspective. If you realize that you must give account for every idle word and action when you stand before the Lord Jesus, it does amazing things to your conduct.

It also makes you recognize how many needless activities we get involved in on this earth. Sort of like rearranging the deck chairs on the Titanic. Don't bother! Don't get lost in insignificant details! He's coming soon!

Recognize the urgency and the simplicity of the hour!
