Assuming 70 years is the length of your life, that (36,792,000) is how many minutes that are available to you. However… assuming an average of 8 hours a day of sleep, that figure gets reduced by 12,264,000 which still leaves you a whopping 24,528,000 minutes. If it’s easier to think in terms of hours than minutes, […]

Don’t misunderstand…. I’m as fond of promises as the next person. We Christians, especially those of the Pentecostal persuasion, love to look through scripture to find ‘promises’. We are typically able to quote a number of these readily because we are standing on some of them to manifest in our lives. There is absolutely nothing

For some reason the formatting on my blog appears to be corrupted in some fashion. Since I didn’t instigate any changes in the first place, I have no idea how to correct it.

We all do – this is a given. We limit God by not going to Him with everything. We limit Him by our lack of faith that He’d ‘do it for me’, even though we quote the scripture that God is no respecter of people, that there is no partiality with God. We just eliminate

Have you ever felt this way? Did you recall the phrase that… the only ones that shoot their wounded are Christians… and then apply that to yourself? If you are active in your church then this reality can happen all too easily – whether by perception or fact. But what do you do when you
