Love My command is this: Love each other as I have loved you. Greater love has no one than this, that he lay down his life for his friends. You are my friends if you do what I command. I no longer call you servants, because a servant does not know his master’s business. Instead, I have called you friends,...

The discussion This morning, spending some time in Exclusive Books, looking for a Rob Bell book, I came upon his Velvet Elvis book. By just reading the back page, I was hooked, and didn’t even think about price before I bought it. This must be one of the best saying, and if one and all of us, can just remember this,...

Gut Check 1.0 OK, so I read through the introduction and the Gut Check part of the book ‘My 30 Days Under the Overpass (Mike Yankoski)’, and WOW. I am already challenged, without even starting with the devotionals. Here is an excerpt from the Gut Check 1.0 Flip on tonight’s news or go to a news blog and...

WOW As I was sitting here in front of the computer, I was thinking on a topic to write a blog about. While reading Collide Magazine I got this scripture. James 4:7-10 (The Message) So let God work his will in you. Yell a loud no to the Devil and watch him scamper. Say a quiet yes to God and he’ll be there...

Best Question Ephesians 5:15-17 Be very careful, then, how you live–not as unwise but as wise, making the most of every opportunity, because the days are evil. Therefore do not be foolish, but understand what the Lord’s will is. Found this great blog post on Beliefnet. What is the best question to ask in...

Some new challenges Ok guys and girls. Sorry for not having posts this last weekend, as I was simply just too busy. On Friday I had some job interviews, and then I spent the day with the 2 girls in my life, and my, how awesome was that. The interview went really great, and I really expect God to come through on this change in...

Sarcasm 1 Peter 3:9 That goes for all of you, no exceptions. No retaliation. No sharp-tongued sarcasm. Instead, bless-that’s your job, to bless. You’ll be a blessing and also get a blessing. How many of you, like me, use sarcasm as humour? For a very long time it just flowed out of me, without even...

God’s Word Hebrews 4:12-13 God means what he says. What he says goes. His powerful Word is sharp as a surgeon’s scalpel, cutting through everything, whether doubt or defense, laying us open to listen and obey. Nothing and no one is impervious to God’s Word. We can’t get away from it-no matter...

21 July 2009 1 Peter 1:3-5 (The Message) What a God we have! And how fortunate we are to have him, this Father of our Master Jesus! Because Jesus was raised from the dead, we’ve been given a brand-new life and have everything to live for, including a future in heaven—and the future starts now! God is keeping...

Reactions… Do you think before you react to something somebody does for you? Do you think about the consequences of what you say to somebody, and the way you say it? I learned, once again, the hard way this morning, by not thinking when I speak, and really hurting the special person in my life. God, please put an angel...
