Kronski's and Salvation!

     
   
      Kronski's – Are a four generation recipe of seasoned smoked garlic sausage, naturally hickory smoked in all natural casings. They are made in Rock Springs, Wyoming….and they are beyond delicious!

Yesterday I made the 15 mile drive to Rock Springs and Boschetto's European Market established in 1953 for a strategic Kronski’s pickup! As I walked in I announced my intentions, “I am here to buy those Kronski things."

I wonder if I am the only one in their 58 year old history who has made such a bold "Over the Top" declaration upon walking through the door:) 

Directed to a display case there they were…..in all their seasoned glory!  Planning to cook out with our Mondays Men group….I bought the biggest pack of Kronski’s they offered, 27 of them, knowing (in doing so) our guys would be blessed. 

They were, I was….and Richard Tramp grilled all 27, by the time we had eaten our fill there was one left…and that one disappeared before the night was finished!

No! I know what you’re thinking…and yes, I did want it….but someone (Owen) made away with that lingering, smoked sausage from heaven!  

Stuffed and smiling, we reconvened in my office, where the topic of conversation was the remarkable salvation offered by our Lord Jesus Christ!

It was an exciting discussion as we recalled what it was like before knowing the Lord, what it’s been like since…and what salvation means to us now. 

One of the youngest men in our group commented that if it had not been for the Lord, he believed he would either be dead or in prison! On this chilly night in Wyoming, he was neither...but rather was warm, and celebrating the love of our King!

We were reminded that when the Lord Jesus provides our Salvation it means:
I have been Saved- I am Justified/ Just as if I never sinned!

I am being Saved- I am being Sanctified/ Setting a part for service to the Lord!

I will be Saved- One day I will experience Glorification- I am, because of the Lord Jesus Christ, heaven bound!
Therefore, since we have been justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ. 2Through him we have also obtained access by faith into this grace in which we stand, and we rejoice in hope of the glory of God. (Romans 5:1-2). ESV

Kronski’s and Salvation on a Monday night in Wyoming….does it get any better than that?

Michelle Robin Hensley November 11th 1969 - September 15th 2009 "We believe as Christians, that when our loved ones die, they go to be with the Lord. The Bible teaches that the Lord is with us. Well if they are with Him, and He is with us...they cannot be very far away" Peter Marshall My Dear Friend's, September 15 at 10:35 pm, my wonderful and Godly 39 year old sister Michelle, stepped into the presence of our Glorious Lord and King . Thank you for your wonderful support and kindness and understanding, our family has felt your care and warmth. I will forever be thankful that I came "Home" to be with her and my mom arriving Tuesday morning. Shell was unresponsive and in a coma all day. She was blessed to be comforted by Mom, my brother Mike, his wife Chrissie, and their two sons Caleb, and Josh. Barbara, my mother in law was there throughout the day, and part of the eveing. Several of Shell's friends came as well. Hospice was great (every step of the way) a

In Honor of Peter Marshall.

In Memory of a Man who was after God's own heart. As a younger minister my heart warmed to His preaching, (From recorded sermons) the soaring diction, the impassioned eloquent proclamation of truth, through a life consumed by Christ! As a middle aged Pastor now, the memory of this incomparable Preacher continues to inspire! I am so looking forward to meeting Dr. Marshall in heaven! Few people in my life's journey have touched me as deeply as the late Peter Marshall. Here is just a sample of his profound way of turning a phrase... • A different world cannot be built by indifferent people. • Give to us clear vision that we may know where to stand and what to stand for - because unless we stand for something, we shall fall for anything. • God will not permit any troubles to come upon us, unless He has a specific plan by which great blessing can come out of the difficulty. • If you hug to yourself any resentment against anybody else, you destroy the bridge by which God would come t

How are things at home?

              A year ago today, hearts were breaking, tears were flowing and pain left us nearly breathless.   A year ago we said a teary temporary (Thank God) farewell (Christians, never say goodbye, for the final time) to Michelle Robin Hensley , my sister, my dear friend.  The 12 months that we have walked and sometimes stumbled through, have been difficult.   The Lord has, as He promised, bore our burdens, comforted  hearts....and dried tears.   Oh they still come , often, I think they always will .  There is so much we miss , about you, so much we want to share with you .  I know that in some way you know what we are doing.... maybe in more detail than we can imagine. I still have a lump in my throat from time to time ....and missing you is a pale way to describe the ache.... but I know you are with the Lord ....and I am comforted . There are no words to describe how much we miss you . Your laughter , your wit ...your timing always spot on! I picture you now in
