Let’s talk about Jesus. Luke 1.26-38

I wish I could have been there . . . I wonder when he first knew he was different. I wonder when he knew that he was God in a man's body. I wonder if Joseph and Mary sat him down and told him about how the angel had announced his birth to the shepherds out in the country. I wonder what other kids thought about him, and when they realized that he was different from them. I

wonder what he…

I have to go now...

I think I’m leaving in a little bit. Before I go, I simply wanted to tell you of some awesome things that have been happening. I’m a little young; I have to use someone else to write the words for me.

Just a few short weeks ago, this “guy”, I never saw His face, but, He must have been some Big Dude! Big because I recall the words He spoke…”I have big plans for you. I have loved you for since time began. I give you the Gift of Life.” WOW! He said that, exhaled, and all of the sudden; I felt… Continue

Baby Jesus

Two thousand years ago, Jesus came to earth and offered His body as a living sacrifice to God, Paul tells us, to be imitaters of God, as beloved childern and walk in love, just as Christ also loved you, and gave Himself up for us, an offering and a sacrifice to God as a fragrant aroma. God loves you. no matter how much you hate Him, He is always waiting to accept you, if you turn to Him. You say you have no life, God can give you Eternal Life, if you only turn to Him and ask Him. Jesus died for… Continue

Eight simple words

It is a busy time of year … have you noticed? ‘Tis a good time to look at one of the regular practices of our Lord, and make it our own. In all four gospels, the writer noted that Jesus would go to a place to be alone with his Father; if the Savior needed that time, how much more do you and…

DELIVERANCE

I counted 528 days about two weeks ago, the length of time from that day I thought and felt my world has ended. The bondage to so much unhappiness, grief and fear of the unknown lasted that long. I was so resigned to the idea that God will just allow me to reach the end of my days in that state of anguish and despair. The prevailing question in my mind was, could it be possible for God to have created me only to make me die unhappy? And what kind of God would that make Him to be? Though I am of… Continue

The Holy Spirit at Work

"The smarter a man is the more he needs God to protect him from thinking he knows everything.

We need to be careful. The more confident we are, the more likely our egos will get us into trouble. We start to think that we are teachers and others are students. We start to judge others. We start to play God. After a while we really get good at it. We need to remind ourselves, we are… Continue

Refiner's Fire

Malachi 3:3 says: 'He will sit as a refiner and purifier of silver.'

This verse puzzled some women in a Bible study and they wondered what this statement meant about the character and nature of God ...

One of the women offered to find out the process of refining silver and get back to the group at their next Bible Study.

That week, the woman called a silversmith and made an appointment to watch him at work. She didn't mention anything about the reason for her interest… Continue

taking the ride...

As im sorrounded by people talking of weddings and anniverserys i look to my own life and see just myself. This is a new life to me having been in serious relationships for the better part of the last 4 years. But there comes a time with maturity when you realise that everything if anything in the world is up to you. You realise that in order to find this "the one" that everyone is searching for you must be the one youself for that other person. You must be secure in yourself as a person the… Continue
