I’ve written about fear before. It is true that when faith exists, fear has no place to go. Fear can never coexist with Faith – faith is always stronger. Do notice that I never said it was easier. Do you have fears in your life? Most people do and attempt to avoid them at all […]
Ever think about your soul? Ever wonder why scripture talks about your soul as often as it does? Or do you couple spirit and soul together into one? They aren’t the same, you know. When you read ‘spirit’ in scripture – it isn’t talking about your soul… and vice versa. So what is ‘soul’? Your
When you say ‘church’, to what or whom are you referring? The building? The leadership? The people in the congregation? Who? Or is it a what? Can you get angry or disappointed with a what? or with only a who? What, precisely, are you seeking from a church? What happens when you don’t experience this…
Church… what or who? Read More »
I’m a great advocate of moving on… of taking the next step… of not being held captive by errors and sins… of learning from the mistakes. I still believe this, but I didn’t mention making that step ‘better’ than where you are. It was, obviously, implied but the How wasn’t. I’m also patience deficient. I

Scripture tells us to seek first the Kingdom of God and His righteousness… and “all these things will be added”. Ignoring for a moment ‘all these things’ – exactly what and where is the Kingdom and how do we seek it? This is far from an idle question. And in the searching I tend to think that

What controls you… do you know? Perhaps I should have said – what motivates you? Motivate is a much better sounding word than ‘control’. However, I would argue that if you don’t know why you do and don’t do (fill in the blank), then control is a better description. ‘Conscious’ is closer to describing your

Have you ever thought about how many times in scripture we read the words, ‘I will’ from the Lord. Another example, there are 365 verses that say – ‘do not fear’. Incredible – one for each day. If we would only read one verse a day, how would we look on our days and lives?
I’m fond of saying, ‘you can only do… what you can do’. Have no idea where this phrase originated, but it IS true. Yes? There’s also the, ‘it is what it is’ comment or response. If I use these 2 phrases then why do I have such problems applying this philosophy? Because it really is
is that they do happen.” This was a line spoken by the lead character in one of my favorite British programs, Father Brown. It’s true you know. Miracles do happen… it’s just that we don’t always see with our spiritual eyes, only with our physical. Too often we really don’t realize what has happened and
