We can get into situations that require God’s help to get out of it.  Wisdom above is needed to get out of the trouble that evil thinking led us into.  And instead of asking what God said to handle the situation you ask everyone around you. You will get 30 different opinions from 20 different people.  You need someone who will give you what God says on the matter. Have you asked the One who truly has the answer you seek? Don't be like my son who rather takes action instead of asking for permission. God wants us to gain knowledge from his word and find out what he says about how to handle our troubles.  Then in prayer, call on the Holy Spirit to guide you.  God will give you stuff you never would have come up with on your own. Ask Gideon in the Bible.  He thought he had the answer to his war problem.   Gideon wanted to take an Army to defeat his enemy. God's wisdom said to take 300.  Joshua led God's people around a city wall for seven days screaming. It seemed foo

Everyone has a timetable, whether it is doing something or nothing at all. It’s a scheduled time to get what you want to accomplish. Some call it a to-do-list. Others call it their bucket list.   Getting the twins out of high school is my timetable.   The other one is retiring from my job, getting a puppy and do nothing.   I look forward to that day. Preparation is underway.   I’m paying off bills and saving money. at least trying to save money.   At any rate, I don’t need the stress of bills after retiring. Many of you have other personal timetables.   Guess who else has a timetable, God.   His timetable has been in motion for eons.   At some point, we’ll cross paths with God’s timetable.   He set a time for us to die. Romans 5:12 say, “… death passes upon all men.”     His other timetable is the judgment.   Hebrews 9:27, “…and as it is appointed unto men once to die , but after this the judgment .”   No one wants to die nor talk about it.   In fact, many evade the subject

I want to take you on a journey of the mind. Pretend with me.  Say you went to an expensive dinner in an elegant restaurant? While you wait to be seated, you notice the décor’ of the room. The matradee walks you to your table.  You run your fingers through the centerpiece to see if the flowers real, all white roses.  The table cloth white with hand-polished, diamond-stud handle silverware. Got the picture?      This imagery illustrates Mark 9:43-46. Jesus unveils body parts that entraps one into sin. Those parts mentioned in the scripture are hands, eyes and feet.  Notice entering the restaurant, your recognize the décor’; you couldn’t look away.  Your feet takes you to that part of the room that captures your attention. Finally, your hands reaches for the very thing you desired, the flowers. This is a visual step-by-step on how sin occurs in stages. Observe  Eve's entrapment in the Garden of Eden (Genesis 2:9).  She looked a the tree with desire, walked to it and reached

(A Poem to keep your focus during trying times) It's Not Always Easy It's not always easy to smile and be nice, when you are called to sacrifice. It's not always easy to put others first. Especially when tired and feeling  your worst. It's not always easy to do the Father's Will. It wasn't so easy for Jesus to climb Calvary's Hill. But we as HIS Children should learn to obey; not seeking our own, but seeking HIS way. It's not always easy to fight the good fight, but it's always good and its always right! K eep your head to sky. Keep the faith. Stay strong. What comes your way, God will handle. What isn't easy, is done to see if you will do what's right. Make the Father proud, by putting your armor on (Eph Chapter 6.)

Have you had one of those days where everything is going well?   The children doing well in school. Spouse happy.   Your job is going well. Bills all paid.   Then disaster hits. Stuff happens you didn’t expect.   The microwave stops working.   A storm comes through and destroy towns. The car dies.   You name it, it happens.   When all is good, take heed.   Remember who owns this world. Satan doesn’t want you to be happy.   He feeds off your misery and sadness. Jesus had a day when all went well.   In Luke 3:16-17, John baptized Jesus.   Immediately coming out of the water, Jesus saw the heavens opened, and the Spirit of God descended on Him like a dove.   Suddenly, a voice came from heaven, saying, “This is My beloved Son, in whom I am well-pleased.”   A great bonding time with the Father! Then comes the devil.   After Jesus’ baptism, the Holy Spirit led Him into the wilderness to be tempted by Satan. Although Jesus led into the wilderness by the Spirit, this shows Satan

God is full of surprises. I stopped at the local convenient store to pick up a few items.   I took my time making my selection.   when I was done looking, I placed my items on the counter. A middle age lady rang up my items on the cash register. She entered the cost for each item, then hit the total key.    I swiped my visa in the card reader.   A question popped up: Would you like cash back appeared on the card reader. At that moment, I wasn’t sure what to select. It took me a minute or two to decide.   Without much thought, I selected yes. The screen displayed the money selection in denominations.   I still didn’t know why I was on that screen. I selected twenty dollars. The cashier gave me twenty dollars and my receipt.   I  put the money and receipt in my purse and went on my way. The next day, I got ready for work. I grabbed my belongs, put them in the trunk of the car and drove off.   When I arrived at work, I open the trunk of the car, grabbed my briefcase and no
