A Few Words From Sig


A CANADIAN OLYMPIC GOLD MEDAL : “Do you BELIEVE?

As Vancouver is focused on the Olympics; so my focus is on the days of Lent.

An ETERNAL GOLD CROWN: “Do you BELIEVE?

Lent is the most exciting time of the year, as it sets the tone for the most amazing day in history. The day is “Resurrection Sunday”, where CHRIST paid the price for my sin,
to set me free, so that I can spend ETERNITY, with HIM!

If, CHRIST is not risen, ...then our FAITH is in vain! ( 1 Cor 15: 14 )

So the 50 days of Lent, allows my heart to spend time with HIM.
Dedicated time for: laughter, meditation, study, prayer walks,
dialogue, lots of time for intercession for my family and friends,
a time to skip meals, listen to my favourite spiritual music on repeat mode,
and quiet times to drink in “THE LIVING WATER”.

“For bodily exercise profits a little
but GODLINESS, is profitable for ALL THINGS,
having a promise of the LIFE that now is,
and that which is to come! ( 1Tim 4: 8 )

The mediations found below - a new set coming out each week - were written to get me started. So now they are yours to use. 50 appetizers to allow you to go deeper, with the slogan: “GO FOR THE CROWN” !

You need to prepare the daily main course menu, unless you have chosen to fast. The sidebar on each daily meditation, will give you the ingredients to lose many an hour. ( research, word studies, etc) Remember the psalms are excellent when you are in a panic for fast food. Also, don’t forget that a good meal always has a fantastic dessert. Plan ahead, do not let the opportunity slip. Pancake Tuesday is just around the corner.

Venite = Oh, come!

the sketches

Submitted by Sig Toews on Mon, 2010-03-01 18:58.

have had a few requests about the sketches which occur after the sabbath meditation

these were done on 11 x 17 format and reduced to 8.5 x 11 format for this series
when you print these you can use them for wall pictures
however if you want a larger version just give me an e-mail

these are a few of my best
they were prepared for morning 5:45am meditations at NSA
as a prelude to a meditation for the group that gathered every thursday
the inspiration comes from THE WORD>!!!

Thank you, Sig, for these meditations! It is so very helpful to have these prepared so that I can just work through them whenever I have some spare moments every day. I appreciate it :)

very POWERFUL meditations

Submitted by Marianne on Thu, 2010-02-18 09:44.

Thanks for all the effort in putting them together.
I'm finding my early morning time spent with them to be really meaningful.
And thank you for sharing such personal thoughts.....The readings are so much more significant when it truly comes from the heart of someone you know well rather than just a theological exercise
