Years ago, the Lord began to show me where anger and bitterness had taken a deadly toll on my spiritual life. What I thought was discomfort was really anger. I found out that anger will destroy you from the inside out. Anger and bitterness are companions-you can't be angry without being bitter and you can't be bitter without being angry. Many couples experience anger in their marriage and, if left undelt with, it can "eat away" at them like an acid.
The circumstances amid which you live determine your reputation;
the truth you believe determines your character.
Reputation is what you are supposed to be; character is what you are.
Reputation is the photograph; character is the face.

Reputation is what you are supposed to be; character is what you are.
Reputation is the photograph; character is the face.
Why is it so easy to get in trouble with our finances: Very subtly the lure of money can lead to the lust of money then to the loss of money and ultimately to a life that lacks money! In Part 1 we talked about the Lure of Money, now let's continue with the Lust, Loss & Lack of Money.
A fountain pen salesman persuaded a merchant to order 500 pens. He was writing the order in his notebook when suddenly the merchant exclaimed, "Hold on! I'm cancelling that order!" and then turned to wait on a customer. The salesman left the store in anger. A few minutes later the merchant's bookkeeper asked, "Why did you cancel that fountain pen order?" "Why?" responded the man.
Greetings from the road! Fall is here…ready or not. I love fall! Larry and I made a marathon run beginning in Minnesota out to the East Coast taking us through the states of Wisconsin, Illinois, Indiana, Pennsylvania, Vermont, Massachusetts and Connecticut. This entire trip has been engulfed by endless rain.
Greetings from Dekalb, Illinois! Does that city name ring a bell? Of course it does if you are familiar with agriculture…Dekalb seed corn! We are parked in a church parking lot about 25 feet from a massive corn field. On the way here, we felt like we were literally traveling through a maze of cornfields all the way from Rockford, IL.
We drove from Whitehall, WI (located near Black River Falls, WI) where we were kept quite busy with several types of ministry. We held two services, participated in a TV interview and spoke at a bike tent rally. It was a fun active week!
It was good to be back with Pastor Allen and Wanda Skroch for these various outreaches to the lost and hurting. One visiting pastor commented, "I have never been to anything like this before. God did a new work in my life." Even those in ministry need encouragement and a "shove" every once in a while.

Greetings from the beautiful and breathtaking dairy state of Wisconsin! What a perfect September day! It seems September has rushed in before I hardly knew it. My father-in-law used to tell me, "Gloria, the older you get, the faster life goes." I used to chuckle knowing that wasn't the truth. Time is time. However, I must say that now…I think the same way! It does seem that life travels at a much faster pace these days.
On August 16th, we were in Grand Rapids, MN for a Sunday morning service with our friends pastor Brian and Bonnie McGuire. It was a joy to be back with them again. There were a host of visitors at the service who we've met through the years. We had a precious service and altar call; there were over 20 decisions for Christ, with over half of those being first-time decisions.
Hello---what a beautiful August day! It couldn't be more perfect! Larry just arrived back home from Orlando, FL. (Yes, you heard me right… Orlando, FL, in August…yikes! Hot, hot!) Larry was invited by Pastor John and Naomi Brady of the Minot Assembly of God Church in North Dakota to help host a group of young people and their chaperones to the General Council Convention of the Assemblies of God.
On Wednesday, July 15th, we drove to Sumner, IA, to sing and minister at the Faith Evangelical Church. From the moment we drove into the community, we felt excitement in the air. As we drove down Main Street, I said, "Larry, look!" Up on the movie theatre marquee, it read, "Land of the Lost, PG-13" and then directly underneath, "Lundstrom Event at Faith". I thought how fitting that was as we came to reach the lost in that community. How timely!
