To whom Am I Giving Glory?.... To God or To Myself?

Time to check our Spirit….

What is your purpose of doing such things right now? Are these words we often quoted: “ I just want to please God”. “I want God to look with favor on my life” “I do not want to cause God any pain.” “I want to help God.” “I want to be the type of child in which the Father takes great pride”. The above passage is very convicting, for it makes one think, on a daily and weekly basis, how often do I think… Continue

Just A Note To All

Spring has arrived in Canada. Our Seasons are short. So I will come back in October to post. Be part of the group.

My love to all.

PRAYER AND THE PRESIDENT

From My Perspective - - -

The Associated Press reported yesterday: “OBAMA PLANS A SCALED BACK NATIONAL DAY OF PRAYER. The White House is planning a muted observance of Thursday's National Day of Prayer, a response that has disappointed both Christian conservatives and an atheist group that wants to end the tradition. Congress established the day in 1952 and in 1988 set the first Thursday in May as the day for presidents to issue proclamations asking Americans to pray. White House… Continue

Un-loving, Un-kind Christians.

I used to be a part of Hoxton Park Anglican church and was tough to attack Catholics, The nation of Islam and non-Christians, I was blinded to see I was being un-loving to my family.

When I was asked a question on money and the church so I could have explained it to an non-Christian, I also said a few things on facebook why do people use the Bible and God’s name in vain I was blasted because for (a) I’m not a Christian for asking such questions and (b) I was condemned for saying by… Continue

The Power of your Decision

Your decision today will determine where you will be tomorrow. Your thought controls your decision, your decision controls your character, and your character influences your DESTINATION.

"For as a man thinketh in his heart, so is he!"

When i was a child and my friends and i wanted to choose who would play on our team during a particular game, or who would go first in a particular activity, we would point to each person as we chant a rhyme. When the rhyme ends, whoever… Continue

TODAY

Today is a gift from God, treasure it. It is the only time in your hand. John Ruskin had on his desk a paper-weight. carved on it was one word: Today."This is the day which the Lord has made; rejoice and be glad in it," sang King David, thus uttering words which summarise the best philosophy of Life. Life has an abundance to give us and all that can be ours on condition that we start living today, or living for today; that we give our entire attention to the work on hand, to the family,… Continue

Seeing is Believing

Acts 3.1-10 Now Peter and John were going up to the temple at the hour of prayer, the ninth hour. And a man lame from birth was being carried, whom they laid daily at the gate of the temple that is called the Beautiful Gate to ask alms of those entering the temple. Seeing Peter and John about to go into the temple, he asked to receive alms. And Peter directed his gaze at him, as did John, and said, "Look at us." And he fixed his attention on them, expecting to receive something from them. But… Continue

Building Blocks

Acts 2.42-47 They devoted themselves to the apostles' teaching and to the fellowship, and to the breaking of bread and to prayer. Everyone was filled with awe, and many wonders and miraculous signs were done by the apostles. All the believers were together and had everything in common. Selling their possessions and goods, they gave to anyone as he had need. Every day they continued to meet together in the temple courts. They broke bread in their homes and ate together with glad and sincere… Continue

Morality.

Morality;

The quality of an action which renders it good; the conformity of an act to the divine law, or to the principles of rectitude. This conformity implies that the act must be performed by a free agent, and from a motive of obedience to the divine will. This is the strict theological and scriptural sense of morality.

Morality cannot be forced on any one, this is contrary to scripture. Mankind has a choice, to live a moral life, or to ignore just, and moral ways, to become… Continue

ZPG and THE CULTURAL MANDATE

From My Perspective - - -

We all have some knowledge of History (for all too many, it is a scant knowledge). We are also familiar with the phrase: “Those who forget (or ignore) History are doomed to repeat it.” It is both important and significant when a current Historian - David Kaiser – shares some of his concerns and observations. David Kaiser is a professor in the Strategy and Policy Department of the United States Naval War College and has previously taught...Harvard… Continue
