People usually pray for: Good life or happy life, Support in finances, Health and wealth, Family or friends, Etc. All of the above are not bad to wish for, because it is our basic needs and wants in this world. But what are the spiritual things you are praying for? Maybe Wisdom to understand God’s will, Anointing power, Guidance in decision making, Or even a persons’ life, Etc. And again it is all good, because we really need all of that. But before praying all of that why not pray for your…

The gray areas … sin.  Scripture: John 9.2-3; 1 Corinthians 6.18-20

Same pretty blonde, with tender heart and probing questions, sitting at my kitchen table one afternoon, asked, ‘So how do I know where the line is?  Regarding sin, I…

I can except the deaths of so many family members. But, my pap pap (who wasn't my real grandpa but I really miss him)...it's just so hard.

I know they died when I was like between the ages or 2 or 3 to like 13 (grandma was the last one). There's been people on my aunt S.' side who's died recently but I wasn't close to them. Pappy died when I was like 2 or 3. I have atleast one memory of my great aunt (when she was in the blue hospital room in bed),one of aunt C. (I think we…

3 Finally, my brethren, rejoice in the Lord. To write the same things again is no trouble to me, and it is a safeguard for you.

Ok, there's still some problems with the JWs but, thanks to the Lord, the problems have dwindled to a smaller number.

I realize the main problem I have with witnessing to dad,mom and my uncle. If I say something I could just be told that the Bible is man man, it has errors. What kind of fruitage is that? All that has to be said is the Bible is wrong/has errors.

Like when I tried showing my uncle about the 144,000 and the great crowd after the 12 tribes of…

A young man working in the army was constantly humiliated because he believed in... God. One day the captain wanted to humiliate him before the troops.

He called the young man and said:- Young man come here, take the key and go and park the Jeep in front. the young man replied:- I can not drive! The captain said: - But then ask your assistance God! shows us that he exists! The young man takes the key and walked to the vehicle begins to pray ...He parks the jeep to the place PERFECTLY…

Key Scripture:  All have sinned and fall short of God.

Sin is yucky.  Sin is controversial . . . because people want to split hairs—because we want to let ourselves off the hook.  ‘I don’t really sin—I mean, I don’t really do anything bad—just the occasional white…

Now that people are becoming more aware of my poetic efforts, interests are being expressed regarding the background of my poetry - in addition, to my spiritual muse. One never knows exactly when the Spirit of God will move on your soul; fortunately I was paying a little bit of attention, one cold winter night...

I've been a member of the IT (Information Technology) community since June of 1981, a profession that constantly tries to turn you into a slave from an employee. Rarely did I…

Wellspring of spiritual water,

It's bubbling inside me.

Gently soothes my bruised soul -

Covering Life's pain of mystery.



Unseen surging river,

Courses through body mortal -

Renewing my energy,

Forced through this open portal.



Full to overflowing,

Come stand next to me,

Let the excess splash on you -

To prime your own jubilee.



This internal source,

Never shall run dry;

For Hope springs eternal,

Keeping this flood in…

12 Take care, brethren, that there not be in any one of you an evil, unbelieving heart that falls away from the living God. 13 But encourage one another day after day, as long as it is still called “Today,” so that none of you will be hardened by the deceitfulness of sin. 14 For we have become partakers of Christ, if we hold fast the beginning of our assurance firm until the end, 15 while it is said,

“Today if you hear His voice, Do not harden your hearts, as when they provoked Me.”…

God is one, yet God is three?

Proverbs 

The plans of the heart belong to man, But the answer of the tongue is from the Lord.

2 All the ways of a man are clean in his own sight, But the Lord weighs the motives.

3 Commit your works to the Lord

And your plans will be established.

4 The Lord has made everything for its own purpose,

Even the wicked for the day of evil.

5 Everyone who is proud in heart is an abomination to the Lord;

Assuredly, he will not be unpunished.

Beloved, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits to see whether they are from God, because many false prophets have gone out into the world. 2 By this you know the Spirit of God: every spirit that confesses that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is from God; 3 and every spirit that does not confess Jesus is not from God; this is the spirit of the antichrist, of which you have heard that it is coming, and now it is already in the world. 4 You are from God, little children, and have…

On June 30 I got back from my trip to Europe. I had an amazing time. I was able to go to Greece and Italy. I have always wanted to go out of the country and I never thought that I would actually be able to go when I am 15! I learned so much other than information on the sites that we went to. I got picked to be a student ambassador for the group People to People student ambassadors organization. This was started by president Dwight D. Eisenhower 1956. He started this in the midst of WWII to…
