Overcoming Bitterness and Resentment

Overcoming Bitterness and Resentment

"Make every effort to live in peace with all men and to be holy; without holiness no one will see the Lord. See to it that no one misses the grace of God and that no bitter root grows up to cause trouble and defile many" (Hebrews 12:14,15).

When we are offended or disappointed by others, we have to deal with it quickly, or we can get hurt by it, then if that hurt… Continue

Of wind, tongues and fire

Good Morning. Wow! This is a powerful passage. . . "Lord, open our hearts and minds to understand Your Word this day. Amen"

Acts 2.1-13 - When the day of Pentecost came, they were all together in one place. Suddenly a sound like the blowing of a violent wind came from heaven and filled the whole house where they were sitting. They saw what seemed to be tongues of fire that separated and came to rest on each of them. All of them were filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak in… Continue

Torture of Christians in the Philippines

Since joining this site I have had a warm welcome from many kind people. Several of them are residents of the Philippines.

It came as a real shock to read the following news story:

I know very little of the Philippines but I can say, based on the communication I have had here, that its people are kind and good. In photographs it looks like a beautiful… Continue

Following Jonah into the depths

It seems to me that many people become lost in grief. Like Jonah they feel themselves swallowed up, dragged down into the depths. What can be said to such people? What can we say to ourselves when the world seems bleak?

I like a verse that someone recently reminded me of, "With God all things are possible." (Matthew 19:26)

This is the truth of it, no matter how grim things might appear God waits to make restitution, to make all things new.

As it says in… Continue

Operation➨➨➨Forgiveness

Good Morning. Forgiveness is God's invention for coming to terms with a world in which people are unfair to each other and hurt each other deeply. He began by forgiving us. And he invites us all to forgive each other. Lewis B. Smedes

While I am anxious to get to Acts chapter 2, it will have to wait another day; you'll see why. . .

It was early this morning when my telephone rang. Someone who had read "Thank you, Judas", yesterday's Morning Briefing, wanted to talk about it. You… Continue

How I Do Grieve.

How I Do Grieve.

For I have no pleasure in the death of him that dieth, saith the Lord GOD: wherefore turn yourselves, and live ye.

God has no pleasure in the death of any man. For we are all made in His likeness and in His image. We morn, and grieve, over the death of a loved one, I myself have grieved many times. It is a hard thing to lose someone that you halved loved all your life.

We are heartbroken by a loss, but some take it harder than others. We must… Continue

Finishing Well

It does not matter how you start the race, or how well you run in it, all that matters is how you finish.

I have a friend in ICU. We have known each other for over 20 years. We met in the halls of AA each having six months of sobriety. Unfortunately, he was given prescription drugs to manage pain associated with Agent Orange. These drugs eventually took over his life. He was on his motorcycle Sunday. He did not notice the red light nor the van stopped at it at an intersection he has… Continue

Thank you, Judas

Acts 1:15-26 In those days Peter stood up among the believers (a group numbering about a hundred and twenty) and said, "Brothers, the Scripture had to be fulfilled which the Holy Spirit spoke long ago through the mouth of David concerning Judas, who served as guide for those who arrested Jesus— he was one of our number and shared in this ministry." With the reward he got for his wickedness, Judas bought a field; there he fell headlong, his body burst open and all his intestines spilled out.… Continue

How To Be A Good Wife

HOW TO BE A GOOD WIFE

Home Economics High School Text Book, 1954

Have dinner ready. Plan ahead, even the night before, to have a delicious meal, on time. This is a way of letting him know that you have been thinking about him and are concerned about his needs. Most men are hungry when they come home and the prospect of a good meal are part of the warm welcome needed.

Prepare yourself. Take 15 minutes to rest so that you'll be refreshed when he arrives. Touch up… Continue

Matthew 8:14-15

“14And when Jesus went into Peter's house, He saw his mother-in-law lying ill with a fever. 15He touched her hand and the fever left her; and she got up and began waiting on Him,” (Matthew 8:14-15).

The instant Jesus healed this woman, she began to serve Him. What an awesome servant’s heart. She didn’t simply beg for healing, express her gratitude, and then go about her way. She instantly got up and began serving Jesus, as if to say, “I would have served You sooner, Lord, but I was… Continue

✜You have been commissioned✜

Good Morning. Acts 1.9-10 After He said this, he was taken up before their very eyes, and

a cloud hid him from their sight. They were looking intently up into the sky as he was going, when suddenly two men dressed in white stood

beside them. "Men of Galilee," they said, "why do you stand here looking into the sky? This same Jesus, who has been taken from you into

heaven, will come back in the same way you have seen him go into heaven."

After He had said what? Really,… Continue

GOD OF THE IMPOSSIBLE

“A ruler questioned Him, saying, “Good Teacher, what shall I do to inherit eternal life?” And Jesus said to him, “Why do you call Me good? No one is good except God alone.

Of Blood and Sacrifice.

Of Blood and Sacrifice.

The Body cannot live without the blood. If you had a perfect body and you would change the blood to clear water, the body would die. Why? The life of the Body is the Blood. The same thing applies to the body of a Christian and also, the Church as a whole. Without the Blood, the Body would die. “For the life of the flesh is in the blood: and I have given it to you upon the altar to make an atonement for your souls: for it is the blood that maketh an… Continue

The Devil & the Duck

There was a little boy visiting his grandparents on their farm.

He was given a slingshot to play with out in the woods.

He practiced in the woods; but he could never hit the target.

Getting a little discouraged, he headed back for dinner.

As he was walking back he saw Grandma's pet duck.

Just out of impulse, he let the slingshot fly, hit the duck square in the head and killed it. He was shocked and grieved!

In a panic, he hid the… Continue
