A fool who finds wisdom is like a blind man who finds a nugget of gold, he doesn’t know what he holds in his hand.

When the sun sets
it appears to be gone,
but we know,
it isn’t really gone,
we just aren’t facing it.
It’s the same,
when we feel
abandoned by God.
He hasn’t gone anywhere,
we just
aren’t looking at Him.

In “God is Always There” S5 / E16 of I Took a Right Turn: After Robert and Rosalie give the weather report and banter about whatever is on their minds at the moment they share a few songs: God is God, We Shall See the King and Turn Your Eyes Upon Jesus. Moving on they share one of their home-grown songs: Every Time I Turn Around. Moving on to the Bible study they look at Psalm 139:7-12 to see that wherever we are God is there. After this Robert reads the poem “Turn Around God is There” from his second book of poetry, Floating Through Time. Each episode this season includes a poem from this book.
The text of these readings is posted the day after the release of each episode at www.itookarighturn.com All of Robert’s more than forty books are available in paperback and kindle through Amazon. We also invite everyone to visit our online art store, The Pair a Docs Shop where we offer our original paintings, prints and merchandise.

Trying to get something for nothing or running up bills we can never pay makes as much sense as trying to walk on air.

God’s Voice August 6, 2025

We must learn
to distinguish God’s voice
from all the other voices
in the world.
For when
the shaking comes,
and it will come,
knowing His voice
and following Him
will be
the only way to safety.
The Bible
is God’s voice,
given to us in writing,
a verbalized
propositional expression
of His revelation
to humanity.
It is
our manual for living
on the planet earth.
It’s filled
with the greatest wisdom
ever revealed.
It teaches us
how humans and society
are supposed to work
and
how they really work
and
what it means to be human.
It shows us
our potential
and what causes
all our problems.
And still
as wonderful as the Bible is
it is meant to lead us to God,
not take His place.
We are called to worship,
the Lord of the Book
Not the Book of the Lord.
Only in Christ
can we learn,
what we are
and what
we are living for.
