  2Chronicles 16:9       “For the eyes of the Lord run to and fro throughout the whole       earth, to show Himself strong on behalf of those whose heart       is loyal to Him.”I’ve always liked this scripture. Then again, I would classify myself as a candidate for the Lord’s strength. This isn’t a […]

     “… Heisenberg’s Uncertainty Principle. Uncertainty was a       fundamental part of nature, and what people knew–what      people thought they knew–was imprecise at best. It all      depended on who was telling the story.”I read that in Susan Elia MacNeal’s Maggie Hope series (Mrs. Roosevelt’s Confidante, p. 316) which got

  Feel that way? Believe that lie? Don’t you realize that at the moment you accepted Jesus as your Lord you stopped being unworthy, stopped being a wretch? It has absolutely nothing to do with you! This is the point. The devil keeps shoving the fact that you aren’t worthy so that you won’t become

  They are not the same! I sometimes think we get the two mixed up and attribute a common definition for both to be the same. They’re not! What they do have in common is that both are actions… very obvious. Have you thought about them? Which do you see as your primary behavior? Confused? As

  I’m beginning to think that indifference is worse than hatred, or any of the negative emotions because there is no reaction. One doesn’t act/do anything. How can you talk with, question, or ‘debate’ with people who are totally indifferent?! You can’t! It becomes a completely frustrating feeling and situation. And if you are passionate

  For purposes of understanding, I’m defining/characterizing ‘just’ as: the mindset and behavior that does only the minimum; barely does what is expected; the attitude of not caring; spreads discontent knowingly and unaware. Why this is occurring is not necessarily known and understanding is rarely sought. Unhappily, the negative by-product can be pervasive in that

  Without a learner’s mindset, how do you learn? Is learning something you look forward to or do you question your need to learn anything more? Or is learning a difficult act for you? How do you think and feel about learning? Perhaps you are the specific need learner – learning (only) what it is
