Some of the more remarkable statements Jesus made was to tell us, unmistakably, why He came. It is an incredible list of what He brings us so that we can live the abundant life. None of His ‘gifts’ are insignificant and they all provide us with a foundation. Do we appropriate them for ourselves and […]
You do realize that there is no way you can repay the Lord for what He’s done for you and keeps doing… yes? And that it has never been an understanding, perception that you deserve His consideration. Then again… that really isn’t the question. So what DO you do? Is it a bit like what
How many times does the Lord say to us… do not fear? Take a look at how often He does say this in His word. Any thoughts? As a matter of fact, we are told not to fear 365 times in scripture! One for each day of the year.!? Incredible. So why don’t we not
YOU are a trophy for God! Betcha you never thought of yourself in this light. I know I certainly didn’t. Can’t take credit for the revelation… a pastor was giving a message from Galatians and made the comment. Now before you dismiss it out of hand… think about it. And, you are not only a

Something’s wrong? Perhaps your heart’s a bit cold? Hurt? Where’s the joy? Where’s the hope? Where’s the confidence? Feeling a bit low, sad, lost? Most important question – do you know why?

Becoming a better me … I do write about this a great deal because it’s so important… at least this is what I believe. I have made some discoveries regarding this subject. The first one is desire. You have to want to become your best because no one is going to do this for you! No magic wand.
