Dear Partner, April is a very special month for me. I met Gloria Jean Neece in October 1961. Then, on the 13th of April, at 8 in the evening, in Little Rock, Ark., we were married. The year was 1962. That was 60 years ago. You have heard me say it and sing it. She’s…
Dear Partner, Here it is the beginning of spring. We here in Northeast Texas have four distinct seasons. The month of March brings new life. The days are beginning to be warmer, and the trees are budding out. Change is happening. Do you remember the old saying: “Things are looking up”? Well, that’s what early…
Dear Partner, This month always has a high place in our family. Eighty years ago, in a very small town in Southwest Arkansas, a baby was born. Her mother’s name was Mary and her dad, Wallace Neece, was gone—shipped out to Europe for training for D-Day, June 6, 1944. [neither does toiling increase it].He then…
Dear Partner, Well, 2021 is over and done with. It was a strange but wonderful year. 2020 was a recordbreaking year, financially, for both EMIC and KCM. But 2021 far surpassed 2020, proving what The WORD of GOD says in Proverbs 10:22: “THE BLESSING of The LORD, it maketh rich, and he addeth no sorrow…
Dear Partner, It’s finally here—CHRISTMAS! My mother dearly loved Christmas, and so did I. I still do. She would always see to it that the tree was up and decorated before my birthday, which is Dec. 6. She thought that was great, but it was torture for me. Nineteen days to wait! Actually, it was…
Dear Partner, Who ever heard of loving parents who do not want their children well? How much more, then, does our heavenly Father who is Love want His children well? Jesus was, and still is, the will of God in action. Let’s begin by reading John 6:38: For I came down from heaven, not to…
Dear Partner, I especially enjoy this time of year. In our part of the country, as you know, summers are very hot. So, the coming of fall is just wonderful. October is very important to me. In 1961, TCU played Arkansas for the SWC championship. You know the story. On Saturday night, I met the…
Dear Partner, What do you think about most of the time? I don’t mean during times when you’re busy or preoccupied, which means to be completely engrossed in thought. I’m talking about most of the time. When I was young, I thought about airplanes most of the time. That thought stayed with me until every…
Dear Partner, Let’s begin our discussion of faith today in the great faith book of Hebrews. In Chapter 3, verses 18-19, we read: “And to whom did He swear that they would not enter His rest, but to those who did not obey? So we see that they could not enter in because of unbelief”…
Dear Partner, Our God really is a GOOD GOD! My father in the faith, Oral Roberts, used to say that all the time. Then he would say, “Something good is going to happen to you today.” After having said that, he would also say, “Expect a miracle today” or, “Expect a miracle every day.” Psalm…
