    Not an Opportunity for The Flesh

    I am reading in the book of Galatians today. The primary thrust of this writing is to correct error in the church. For there were false brothers among the people who were trying to convince the Gentile Christians that they had to be more like Jews and that they had to obey some of the Old...

    Time is Ticking

    Time is ticking, ticking by, Birds are singing, babies cry, Hearts are mourning things long dead, Words ill spoken, should not said. So regretful, those who mourn Over things should not been born, Wish that they could all erase, And the truth not have to face. We cannot erase the past, Even if...

    Trying Times

    Trying times are all around us, Circumstances, they confound us, Memories past they sometimes hound us, Give them all to God, He’ll help us. Hurtful memories often linger, Raw emotions they may trigger, Makes no sense, but so go figure. God is sovereign, and He’s bigger! Sometimes people...

    Returning to Where You Were Persecuted

    “Now at Iconium they entered together into the Jewish synagogue and spoke in such a way that a great number of both Jews and Greeks believed. But the unbelieving Jews stirred up the Gentiles and poisoned their minds against the brothers. So they remained for a long time, speaking boldly for the...

    Why Do I Do What I Do?

    Why do I do what I do each day? Why do I trust God and to Him pray? Why do I give my life up to Him? Why do I live for Him, not for a whim? I have learned many things in my life. Some things I learned from Him, learned in strife. Empty, hurting I was, needed Him. Needed the light of truth, not...

    1 Timothy 1:12-14 ESV “I thank him who has given me strength, Christ Jesus our Lord, because he judged me faithful, appointing me to his service, though formerly I was a blasphemer, persecutor, and insolent opponent.

    The Gospel Message According to Jesus Christ

    “And he said to all, ‘If anyone would come after me, let him DENY HIMSELF and TAKE UP HIS CROSS DAILY and FOLLOW me. For whoever would save his life will lose it, but WHOEVER LOSES HIS LIFE for my sake WILL SAVE IT. For what does it profit a man if he gains the whole world and loses or forfeits...

    I Asked the Lord in Prayer

    Today I asked the Lord in prayer If life on earth should not be fair, Should everyone get what’s deserved For all they’ve done, for all they’ve served. I contemplated that in mind, In hoping that the truth I’d find. And as I gave it some deep thought, The truth of all, it surely brought. For...

The sad reality of it all, though, is that these numbers are high even among those who call themselves Christians. Porn addiction, extramarital flirtations and affairs, and...

    Your Love Offering

    So many times I think we take our God’s love for us for granted, and what he did for us in saving us from our sins and in setting us free, and we forget to thank him for all that he has done for us. So, this song is a song of thanks to God – Father, Son and Holy Spirit – for his/their love...

    Forgive and Comfort the Repentant

    “Now if anyone has caused pain, he has caused it not to me, but in some measure—not to put it too severely—to all of you. For such a one, this punishment by the majority is enough, so you should rather turn to forgive and comfort him, or he may be overwhelmed by excessive sorrow. So I beg you to...

    Repentance, Forgiveness, and Healing

    King David had it in his heart to build a house for the name of the Lord, the God of Israel, but God chose David’s son, Solomon, to build the house, instead. And so Solomon built the temple of God. And in that temple he set the ark, in which was the covenant of the Lord that God had made with...
