What Love Isn't

When love enters the heart it brings the sweet aroma of life. Its shared not coveted. It brightens not shadows. It calls, not deafens. It protects, it never rejects. It pleases the soul and soothes the spirit when it beackens another heart to join because love is unconditional....Tell someone you love them...Its meant for you....

Love To Love

When love enters the heart it breathes life into the soul.  It does not lie, cheat, hurt or steal.  Love in its pure form captures the beauty of unconditional boundaries; humans restrict love with conditions.  There are many stories of the greatest love stories ever told, none of which surpasses the love God has for the world.  God so love the world that he gave his only begotten Son that whosoever believeth in him should not perish but have everlasting life.  Therefore love is unselfishly giving.  God sacrificed his Son not because He loved the world more than his Son. Its because he loves and wants us to have a life with him in love forever.

I'm Just Saying

How often do you ask yourself questions you already know the answer to?  How do you feel about the circumstances that brings you to the point you have to question yourself about circumstances you have the power to change? Consider your life.  What direction is it headed? 

How Far Do You Have To Fall

How far do you have to fall before you realize you are falling?  A life apart from Jesus is like running an obstacle course blindfolded.  Humans have this controlling nature that they relentlessly pursue in quest of a better self-centered life. Unfortunately when this deliberate mishap occurs we find ourselves seeking peace in the bars, other people in the same condition and petty materialism that only adds to the weight of stumbling.  Anyone who takes on the mindset I see others doing the same thing should have enough sense to realize walking by sight is not the same as walking in faith. Lets' face it! we are all born with the sin DNA.  The only medicine is a daily dose of Jesus.

Satan's Plan Against Us

Satan has cleverly devised a five point plan against us.  Consider what is about to be read and use it to identify when the following five demonaic missiles land in your spiritual backyard. Doubt - Makes you question God's Word and his goodness. Discouragement - Makes you look at your problems rather than at God. Diversion - Makes the wrong things seem attractive so that you will want them more than the right things. Defeat - Makes you feel like a failure so that you don't even try. Delay - Makes you put off doing something so that is never gets done. If the question ever came up, why? now you know.

When Evening Comes

Jesus completed feeding the five thousand; And straightway he constrained his disciples to get into the ship, and to go to the other side before unto Bethsaida, while he sent away the people. (Mark 6: 45) This was quiet a task for one individual when viewed through natural eyes; but when viewed through spiritual eyes one can see the power of God not only in the feeding of the five thousand but the spiritual equipping (preparation) of individuals. And when he had sent them away he departed into a mountain to pray. (Mark 6: 46) Jesus slipped away to commune with His father (our Father).  The people wanted to take Jesus by force and make him their king.  They were suffering at the hands of the Romans and their new Task Masters, the appointed not anointed priest, the Pharisees and their own unbelief. An when even ( evening) was come, the ship was in the midst of the sea, and he alone on the land. (Mark 6: 47) There stood Jesus (The Light of The World) as darkness appr...

Weakness

And lest I should be exalted above measure through the abundance of the revelations, there was given to me a thorn in the flesh the messenger of Satan to buffet me, lest I should be exalted above measure.  For this thing I besought the Lord thrice, that it might depart from me. (2 Cor 7,8, Key Bible, KJV) Human weakness provides the ideal opportunity for the display of divine power.  The precise nature of this affliction is unknown, however in Romans 7:23 Paul identifies another law in his members warring against the law of his mind, and bringing him into captivity to the law of sin which is in his members. A common misunderstanding among many Christians is, they have no weaknesses.  This could not be further from the truth.  We humans are afflicted with weaknesses.  If we all do not have weakness then the present condition of the world would reflect that in our lives, community, homes and our churches. Paul states he sought the Lord three ...
