Injustice. Trauma. It seems today we are more likely to encounter reckless and even rage-filled people. If we’re unfortunate enough to have repeated traumatic situations, then C-PTSD can develop. Painful, at times shattering events in our lives have real potential to tempt us to never turn to the one true living God and even ifContinue reading “Injustice and Forgiveness”

Jesus — Our Friend
But he said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.” 2 Cor 12:9 It sure can be a lonely, lonely world out there. Here we sit on a Friday night and the whole world seems like it has somewhere to go, something to do and someone to be with,Continue reading “Jesus — Our Friend”
The Steadfast Love of the Lord Never Ceases
While the professing Church in America sickeningly celebrates its perceived victory of helping to re-elect one of thee most corrupt and sleazy US candidates for POTUS, try to remember dear sisters and brothers, God has not abandoned us. He is on His throne and He loves us. The steadfast love of the LORD never ceases;Continue reading “The Steadfast Love of the Lord Never Ceases”
Making Time Count for Eternity
It’s a struggle to be disciplined with our time, and even more so to do so in such a way that the things we are doing are the most important to be doing year after year. Paul wrote “So I do not run aimlessly; I do not box as one beating the air. But IContinue reading “Making Time Count for Eternity”
Preparing for Battle
Then I saw a new heaven and a new earth, for the first heaven and the first earth had passed away, and the sea was no more. 2 And I saw the holy city, new Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband. 3 And I heard a loud voice from the throne saying, “Behold, the dwelling place[a] of GodContinue reading “Preparing for Battle”
Are We Ready?
Yes, it’s been more than 2000 years and likely too many of us weren’t brought up with any seriousness about Jesus’ return and how that should have impacted our lives as professing Christians, but if we are living out our salvation then we need to live in that readiness. “At that time the kingdom ofContinue reading “Are We Ready?”
Rejection No More
Medical research has discovered that one of the 3 defining characteristics of ADHD is called Rejection Sensitivity, but it’s unclear how much of this sensitivity is due to genetics and how much is triggered by the environment (i.e. bullying, being misunderstood, high-conflict homes, etc) Regardless of its origins or if one has ADHD, rejection —Continue reading “Rejection No More”
It’s Between Us and Jesus Now
Just how many Believers are stumbling around in the tepid waters of compromised and corrupted religion called Christianity today? Despite the thousands of Churches littering the land, it’s not likely that Believers are going to find integrity-filled and rightly interpreted preaching anymore. Not on any large scale anyhow and it’s more likely that anything resemblingContinue reading “It’s Between Us and Jesus Now”
The Single Eye
In dedication to my dear friend. With eternal gratitude. The early Church obviously lived a simpler life then we do today but it was still filled with hardships and struggles, and they still had to face the same emotions in order to press through whatever the troubles of those days were. Yet, we’re told thatContinue reading “The Single Eye”
My Sheep Hear My Voice
From the 1970’s until the early 2000’s there was a zealous international Church. It rose up during an actual movement of God that swept across the country in the 70’s and because of the power of the Spirit, also flowing through the living and active Word, people repented and strived to live out the scriptures.Continue reading “My Sheep Hear My Voice”
