As early as Genesis 3:15, God promises a savior which He delivered on the cross, Jesus Christ His son. And Jesus said to His disciples in Matthew 16:24-25, “And the one who does not take his cross and follow after Me is not worthy of Me. The one who has found his life will lose it, [...]

We don’t Deserve to Live; But Mercy Stepped In
In Genesis Chapter 1, we read about the story of creation. When God looked over all He had made, He saw it was very good. The heavens, the earth, the water, the land, the plants, the trees, man, and woman. God gave commands to man before woman was born not to eat from the tree [...]
The Aroma of Incense
Our prayers are like incense to God. He puts them in a bowl and hears them as He pleases, over and over, or all together. The book of Leviticus constantly spoke of how incense was soothing to God. David, a man after God’s own heart wrote in Psalm 141:2, “Accept my prayer as incense offered [...]

Do you know people that no matter what you say, what you do, they just don’t seem to get it? They believe all kinds of stupid crap but won’t believe the truth. They won’t even believe things they see with their own eyes, or hear with their own ears. That is pure blindness. Why? Because [...]

When I think of the Cross, I see a + sign. A sign of positivity; a sign of hope; which should cause inward signs of faith. Why you may ask. Because Jesus was on that Cross, and He wants us to think good thoughts, to never give up, and to believe; in Him! So why [...]
Heaven
One of the songs I grew up singing in church was “When We All Get to Heaven. What a day of rejoicing that will be. When we all see Jesus, we will sing and shout the victory.” What a beautiful song it is, but WE don’t mean all of us. We all aren’t going to [...]
We Should Be Better Than This
I love my family, but sometimes we are the worse. We continually say we love each other, but our actions don’t show it. We hate, gossip, avoid, and refuse to help when needed. We should be better than this. I love my church, but sometimes we are not Christ-like. We treat each other great on [...]
JOY, AND PAIN, AND PEACE
On Friday 17 December 2021, I walked my daughter down the aisle and presented her to her now husband. What joy it was to see the two of them come together in union to celebrate the rest of their lives. And we were blessed to share it with her sister, my daughter from Arizona, who [...]
