“The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance” (2 Peter 3:9.) “I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto… Continue reading God’s Call On Our Lives

There’s No Preparation For Loss
There’s no preparation for loss. It just happens and you have to go through it. You can’t go around it or stop it from happening. There’s no preparation for loss. You can’t practice shock, pain, or grief. There’s no preparation for loss. It’s not something you want to practice or live through anymore than necessary.There’s no preparation for loss.There’s… Continue reading There’s No Preparation For Loss
Hid In Christ
I recently read, “If ye then be risen with Christ, seek those things which are above, where Christ sitteth on the right hand of God. Set your affection on things above, not on things on the earth. For ye are dead, and your life is hid with Christ in God” (Colossians 3:1-3.) I looked up… Continue reading Hid In Christ
What Are You Leaning On?
You may not feel like you really lean on anything, but think of when you are scared or stressed; what do you turn to? Our flesh wants to turn to things that numb the pain, such as drugs, alcohol, sex, gambling, sleeping, binging television or social media, online shopping, and anything else that brings distraction.… Continue reading What Are You Leaning On?
You Have To Let Him
How many times have you been hurt or confused and prayed for comfort or help but turned it down when it came? Often, we pray, but when God comes through, we don’t let Him. We either don’t like what He says or are prideful and decide to do things ourselves. We don’t let Him work. … Continue reading You Have To Let Him
Living Abundantly Through Charity
First Corinthians chapter 13 perfectly defines this word. This passage is one of the places you can replace charity with your name. If it fits, that’s great! But most of us can’t completely align with this chapter and have some work to do. Myself included. As Christians, charity should be a prominent characteristic of our… Continue reading Living Abundantly Through Charity
The World Our Kids Are Growing Up In
Paul writes to the churches of the New Testament and often has to address sin. Usually, it’s topics like witchcraft, fornication, and pride. Two sins that most parents still worry about today. I’m a millennial. And most of the older generation says, “I can’t imagine raising kids in this world.” Or “I can’t believe how… Continue reading The World Our Kids Are Growing Up In
Your Ideal Home
What would you say if I were to ask you to describe your ideal home? Do you envision a house and a yard? You may want a garden, a barn full of animals, or a perfectly manicured yard with a fence and a pond. What about the inside? Is it an open floor plan and… Continue reading Your Ideal Home
It’s Not Just Sitting in Church
Recently, I talked to a friend who is going through a hard time. They aren’t in church; they have a rocky past, which makes them question their salvation, and they aren’t sure what to do about their situation. During our talk, they said they don’t see how going to church daily fixes anything. There has… Continue reading It’s Not Just Sitting in Church
Silly Women
“For of this sort are they which creep into houses, and lead captive silly women laden with sins, led away with divers lusts,” (2 Timothy 3:6.) The beginning of this chapter speaks of how people will act as we get closer to the coming of Christ. We are told of perilous times. We know that… Continue reading Silly Women
