“Nobody sews a piece of unshrunken cloth on an old coat.” Mt.9:16…

Everyone desires to be in God’s will. Sometimes we even talk about wanting to be in the perfect will of God.

But God’s perfect will might not look like what you think it should. We need to clear up what we mean by perfect. Otherwise we could completely miss out on God’s will altogether because we’ll be too busy chasing daydreams.

Our idea of perfect is perfect to us.

A perfect day to you might mean everything is going the way you…

Death is very scary to all of us, I think that it might be one of the biggest fears known to man. After all it is written in the word of God. As the word of God says in Hebrews 2: 15- Only in this way could he set free all who have lived their lives as slaves to the fear of dying.  But death does not have to be the last thing you have to deal with. And that's why Jesus is so concern about our soul. As the word of God says in Ezekiel 18:4- For all people are mine to judge both parents and…

Dear Heavenly Father,Thank you for those who have prayed for me over the years. Although we do not know the people whom You have had to pray for us, we are thankful for those prayers, and we know that we shall meet those people in heaven. Help us to be faithful to intercede for others who may be needing special prayer this very day. What a wonderful privilege to pray for others. Increase our prayer life, as this is the way you have designed to channel blessings to…

Under His Wings

Under His wings, I am safely abiding,

Though the night deepens and tempests are wild.

Still I can trust Him; I know He will keep me,

He has redeemed me and I am His child.

Refrain: Under His wings, under His wings, 

who from His love can sever?

Under His wings…

Never say “Always”, except … Ephesians 4



Hi.



When arguing, people like to say, ‘You always … make me out to be the bad guy’, or ‘you always say mean things …’ And the psychotherapist alarm rings and corrects with the voice of reason, ‘Do not use the word ‘always’ because it is not true and only incites.’ Similarly, the other absolute word of ‘never’ just is not usually true…

“My little children, be on your guard against idols.” 1Jn.5:21…

Dear Heavenly Father,I am thankful for Your love and patience toward me. Help me to extend that same love and patience to others. Help me to be a kind and loyal person in all of my circumstances. Open my eyes to see my own faults so that I might present them to You for the needed changes. Forgive me for wrong attitudes and change my heart to be like Yours. I release all those who have caused me pain and trouble to Your care. Be merciful to them and help them to change also. Lord, give us…

Doc Rivers, Aaron Hernandez … Calling, our part. Ephesians 4.1-6



Good Day.



Up early this morning, I was thinking again about Paul’s charge to ‘live a life worthy of our calling’ . . . I was thinking of his charge to ‘be humble and gentle… to be patient with each other, making allowance for each other’s faults because of your love.’ What does that look like? I asked the Lord, and continued studying.



Shortly after, I headed to the gym for a while. On the…

Calling … and what comes with it.  Ephesians 4.1-3

Calling is a great word,…

“Master, we have been hard at it all night long and have caught nothing; but if you say so, I will lower the nets.” Lk.5:5…

CALLING. Ephesians 4.1-3



Are you aware of your inner whispers? Inklings that draw you—impulses that push … pull … or cause you to think … or feel … or act? I mean--do you heed the inner whisperings that steer you toward certain people … or prompt you to explore unique pursuits? Of late, the notion of calling has worked its way into my psyche over and over.



Definition of CALLING – Merriam Webster



1: a strong inner impulse toward a particular course of action…

Many things happened during the time of Jesus on earth but not everything was captured in the bible. However, the things that are written there-in; by the Inspiration of the Holy Ghost are more than adequate and sufficient to meet ALL of the needs of man. Is there a problem in life that the Bible doesn't not proffer a solution to?

  "Enter by the narrow gate. For the gate is wide and the way is easy that leads to destruction, and those who enter by it are many. For the gate is narrow and the way is hard that leads to life, and those who find it are few.
