God would be pleased and we would gain wisdom and peace if we brought every decision, meeting, problem and project before Him. “Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge Him, and He will make your paths straight.” Proverbs 3:5-6

  Agnostics, seekers and believers all ask questions about God. If all of the questions could be answered it would put us on the same level with God…man wants that, but it will never happen. One question I hear sometimes is “If Jesus is ‘the way, the truth and the life’ (John 14:6) what about […]

  This has always been a hard discipline for me, but I know it to be true…the busier I get, the  more I should pray. When we become physically and mentally drained, it’s easy to become spirituality drained as well. Spiritual nourishment comes from God’s Word and with prayer. No Bible verses today, but instead two […]

  If you’re past mistakes are robbing you of your joy, confess them once and for all to Christ who has already paid the price for them!  Then, forget them…God has! He has cast them as far as the east is to the west, to remember them no more.” Jesus wants you to walk in peace […]

When our children grew older and “left the nest,” it became incredibly gratifying when they give us a call or make a visit. Because of our great love for our children, we love hearing from them!

God has used 2 Corinthians 5:21 to encourage me in faith and to help me be thankful for God’s great Gift to us. “God made Him who had no sin to be sin for us, so that in Him we might become the righteousness of God.” This is an overwhelming message! Christ took our sins […]

“Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for men.” Colossians 3:23 When we approach our jobs as an act of worship, we will have passion, be effective, treat those we work with and work for with respect, we will be thankful, positive and productive. Have a […]

C.S. Lewis once said, “A proud man is always looking down on things and people; and as long as you are looking down, you cannot see something that is above you.” An even wiser man said, “Pride goes before destruction, a haughty spirit before the fall” Proverbs 16::18 Let’s all “look up” and be thankful […]

  Sometimes, God says “no” to our request when we pray. Many times “no” is a far greater answer. God has a better plan than ours. When Jesus was agonizing in prayer before His betrayal and crucifixion, He prayed, “Abba, Father, everything is possible for you. Take this cup from me. Yet not what I […]
