on April 26th, 2024
Many are the plans in the mind of a man, but it is the purpose of the Lord that will stand. (Proverbs 19:21) God has a plan for your life, no matter how you have botched it in the past.

Coming Home

But we had to celebrate and be glad, because this brother of yours was dead and is alive again; he was lost and is found. – Luke 15:32 I grew up in a family where I had three sisters, one who was nine years older than me, and two who were younger.

Believing The Truth About Yourself
on April 19th, 2024
A person may think their own ways are right, but the Lord weighs the heart. (Proverbs 21:2) Chuck Colson wrote a book, Born Again. He got saved in the midst of the Watergate fiasco and served time in prison. God saved him and put him on a path to being a blessing to many people. One of my good friends was his pastor. Colson said in his book that the problem with President Nixon was that he cou... Read More

Allowing God To Do The Changing
on April 17th, 2024
“As I began to speak, the Holy Spirit came on them as he had come on us at the beginning. Then I remembered what the Lord had said: ‘John baptized with water, but you will be baptized with the Holy Spirit.’ So if God gave them the same gift he gave us who believed in the Lord Jesus Christ, who was I to think that I could stand in God’s way?” When they heard this, they had no further objections and...

All Scripture is breathed out by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for training in righteousness. – 2 Timothy 3:16As children of God, we often find ourselves trying to find the balance between love and truth, especially when confronted with situations where maybe a friend is living contrary to God's Word.
