Friendship Last night I had to look back at the past year, and just see all the blessings the Lord has placed on our lives, and this is only by looking at the friendships He blessed us with. A year ago, me and my wife had no real friends. People that we knew we could call upon in hard times, and people that knew they...

The joys of giving Ok, I know, I have been slack with blogging the last 2 weeks. I have to say sorry for it, since I have been a bit lethargic due to end of the year syndrome, and slacking in all spiritual things in my life. Yesterday, while walking to the car after dropping my wife and daughter off at the airport, for them to...

Awesome Prayer O God, I have tasted Thy goodness, and it has both satisfied me and made me thirsty for more. I am painfully conscious of my need for further grace. I am ashamed of my lack of desire. O God, the Triune God, I want to want Thee; I long to be filled with longing; I thirst to be made more thirsty still. Show...

Fearless, The Review Why do we go through life with so much fear? Why do we fear the things we fear? We fear the mundane things, we have no control over in life, and we fear the material things the world has told us to fear. In his new book, Fearless, Max Lucado takes all these little fears we have in life and replaces it with...

Acts Listening to another Podcast from Mark Batterson at National Community Church in Washington DC, on Chapter 2, the early church, I got inspired by the title of the book of Acts.

Christmas Due to me having ‘bloggers’ block again, I am posting a writing from Louis Brittz on Christmas. In many ways he expresses what I feel toward Christmas in the modern day, but his ending really got me just now. Christmas, christmas. What to say? If it weren’t for the vast splotches of red...

Extending you basic Faith What is your basic faith? Is it believing that God created the heavens and the earth, or is it believing that Jesus died for OUR sins on the cross, or is it simply believing that everything happened by chance and there is no eternity waiting for us? If your basic faith is the last one, I want to commend...

We can do it I have been listening to the Hero sermon series from NCC (National Community Church) for the last couple of days, and this morning I was listening to a sermon about Caleb. Now most will know his name, but he basically lived in the shadow of Joshua. However, he had the best attitude of all the spies that was...

Not of this world How many times a day do we just wish that the people around us, would accept us and love us? How many time a day we just do something, because the people around us do it? I am quite often guilty of trying to fit in, because it is the easy thing to de, but Jesus is pretty clear about this. John 15:18-19 (The...

Throw in the towel NO, not that way. Let us read John 13 and take it from there John 13:1-17 (The Message) Just before the Passover Feast, Jesus knew that the time had come to leave this world to go to the Father. Having loved his dear companions, he continued to love them right to the end. It was suppertime. The Devil by...
