I absolutely dislike, maybe even hate, the word “deserve.” I don’t think this word or mindset has any place in the vocabulary of a Christian. I am trying to be careful here. I am a very black-and-white person as most of you know. Something either is right or it’s not. I don’t have a lot… Continue reading What Do We Really Deserve?

Ephesians 6:10-17 says, “Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might. Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.

Salvation Before Death
We recently had a death in our family. When we announced that my husband’s grandpa was sick, many people asked if he was saved. As a Christian, I understand the concern for salvation, and I am thankful for the concern. I understand we have heard many stories of deathbed salvation. Anyone can get saved at… Continue reading Salvation Before Death

Have You Gone Back To Fishing?
Peter had denied the Lord three times, he was in a low place, and the only thing that seemed to make sense now was to go back to what he knew: fishing. When he said “I go a fishing” in John 21:3, this was not just an afternoon fishing trip. I really believe he… Continue reading Have You Gone Back To Fishing?
Yes, I am a Christian, but…
Yes, I am a Christian. But I am not perfect. I do not always represent Jesus as well as I should or even as well as I desire to. I do not intentionally do or say things that will make my Saviour look bad. I do not purposefully push you away from Him. The… Continue reading Yes, I am a Christian, but…

Be Ye Angry and Sin Not
“Be ye angry, and sin not: let not the sun go down upon your wrath:”, Ephesians 4:26. We often hear a lot about this verse and its different applications. We see that this is not condemning anger. Anger is an emotion given to us by God, but just like all other emotions, it has a… Continue reading Be Ye Angry and Sin Not
Where Did You Hear That?
Have you ever heard your child say something and you said, “Where did you hear that?” Usually, this comes after they say something they shouldn’t. Maybe it was a surprise plan they figured out, something they said about another person, or a not-so-nice word they picked up. I know we don’t have to teach our… Continue reading Where Did You Hear That?
