Faith…


Have you ever wondered how some people get through tough times? Many will tell you upfront that they just push through those times. But what if the problem is something that you can’t push through? Like cancer or a death in the family? Personal strength and grit won’t get you through those successfully.

Spirituality and horoscopes won’t help either. The only help comes through faith in Jesus. Faith can get you through a problem regardless of the intensity of the pain. Faith can give you the strength to endure treatments and pain when nothing else will. Faith can change the circumstances when you place it in the One Who can do that.

Faith, even a small amount, can make a dramatic change in your life and in your circumstances. I know that I have repeated this but it’s true. God gives you your faith but the quality of your faith makes the difference. By “quality” I mean whether you have doubts about Who your faith is in or not. How deep is your faith? Can it get you through tough times? Regardless of how bad they are or how bad they will be.

We have all strayed…


Not sure


How important is spirituality in your life?

I’m a Christian so the only Spirit is the Holy Spirit. In today’s world, spirituality can mean different things to different people. God loves people but He has lots of trouble with the sinful life that they “enjoy”. He gave us salvation through the sacrifice of Jesus and all it takes is for you or I to believe in Him. Seek Him for your eternity and an abundant life in it.

The Truth will set you free


Every knee will bow


Do not be afraid


Follow Jesus


Our world…


There is so much going on in the world. It is hard to understand why it is all happening. Unless you have read the Bible. God told us that many of these newsworthy things happening today would be happening near the end of the age. Some people don’t want to believe that we are at that point but there is no other explanation for the hatred and violence that just gets worse from week to week.

The news media doesn’t want to report it so most of the real news is covered up or not reported.  Some news agencies report on news that others tend to overlook. Otherwise, life goes on and many don’t realize which “news” is real and which isn’t important in the scheme of things. But…God knows what is happening and why because He is in control.

Why is our world in the shape that it’s in? Because Satan has tried to corrupt the world and everyone in it for thousands of years. Even when you give your heart to Jesus, he won’t leave you alone. Satan reminds you that you aren’t good enough for God’s love, he tells you that those things that you did many years ago will keep you from getting into Heaven. Even when you know that Jesus is your Savior, Satan will try to make you doubt it every day. Whenever you think something you shouldn’t or say something you know is wrong, he will remind you that you aren’t good enough.

The problem with his logic is that Jesus chose each of us who are called to be His and once we have given our hearts to Him, nothing can take us from Him. In our strength, we can’t be good enough but the Holy Spirit gives us the strength, in Him, to resist those “suggestions” from the devil. God loves us His Strength to make it through each day, one day at a time. Make sure you have sought to know Jesus as your Savior because one day soon He will be coming back for His Church, so make sure you are a part of it.

We should live in His rest


Childhood favorites


Which food, when you eat it, instantly transports you to childhood?

Peanut butter sandwiches, Chef Boy-r-dee ravioli, and Mac and cheese. I think back to the time when my parents were still together when I have these.
