Truth is truth. Yes?! However… Truth that we see, understand, and accept is based on our Perceptions. And, our Perceptions are based in our Attitudes. And where do our Attitudes comes from? Experience. Significant People, liked and not liked, in our lives. Our Personal Learnings. Does this seem to be devolving into ‘relativism’? Possibly. And that’s no foundation! That’s […]
I was a fairly new Christian when I read: “Therefore there is now no condemnation [no guilty verdict, no punishment] for those who are in Christ Jesus [who believe in Him as personal Lord and Savior].

How many times have I railed (intransitive verb) against comparing? All the time! When you think about it… what does comparing do for you? After you’ve done your comparing… do you feel better about yourself? I would argue that the results of comparing is never positive.

“Give, and it will be given to you. They will pour into your lap a good measure—pressed down, shaken together, and running over [with no space left for more]. For with the standard of measurement you use [when you do good to others], it will be measured to you in return.” (Luke 6:38, AMP) Cheerfully? Grudgingly? What is
I know I chunter on a great deal about application. It’s important! Because how do you really know you know unless you understand? And how do you understand the knowing without ‘testing’ your understanding by expressing it – applying and incorporating the ‘know’? Simply: learning leads to knowledge which leads to understanding which is evidenced in your
If you are feeling alone, lost, in a desert or dry place, confused, frustrated, etc. don’t just sit down. There’s a saying that if you feel like you’re going through hell… don’t stop.
