First: WE ALL have a part, a role to fulfill this imperative. If you call yourself a Christian, you areresponsible. But… I also believe we don’t realize what this means nor how we actualize our part. We have a limited understanding and view. Second: Remember the parable that talks about some plant, some water, some […]

I am a great proponent of applying learning. What function does learning accomplish if it isn’t tested and demonstrated in one’s life? I typically classify any unapplied learning as ‘interesting’ but not of any great use – a kind of learning for learning’s sake, still with some value. But it is in seeing, intentionally, the

Do you ever think about your future? Do you know what your future will look like? “For whom He foreknew, He also predestined to be conformed to the image of His Son, that He might be the first born among many brethren. Moreover whom He predestined, these He also called; these He also justified; and

What’s your understanding, interpretation, definition of this word? Do you experience ‘punishment’? Is it precarious and capricious… or justified? Regardless, how do you handle these times and what do you do with what you learn? About yourself – your actions, your ownership of what you did or said, your ‘amends’, etc. The Word tells us
Scripture tells us that we receive not because we don’t ask. Is this happening in your life? Or is it the next sentence that voids the receiving… “You ask and do not receive, because you ask wrongly, to spend it on your passions.” (James 4:3) Soooo, what are you asking for, and are you receiving?
