I was listening to that song “Into the Sky” and received a revelation from God when listening to it while I was working regarding my attitude at work and having a loving attitude. My job right now has to do with handling inquiries from dealers asking there their orders for parts are. My job, along with two others, is … Read More

God’s Voice
I think one of the most difficult things that we as Christians have to discern is what God is speaking to us in certain directing-our-lives situations. I was speaking with an older, experienced pastor recently and he said something that struck me as a great bit of wisdom. He said that God’s clarity in direction … Read More
Industriousness
It is interesting to see God’s view on working hard at what He has you doing right now. It is easy to start to feel like you are wasting your life if you don’t see your efforts making a difference in your situation. Colossians 3:23 Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, … Read More
What’s your Stumbler?
In Acts 13:13-52 we see a very interesting story about Paul and Barnabas’ experiences in Pisidian Antioch. They went into the synagogue and were asked to speak. Paul gave a rousing sermon, at least some of it is recorded here, maybe all of it. Afterwards, the Jews were pretty positive. In verse 43 it even … Read More
God’s Heavy Hand
Acts chapter 12 and 13 tells two interesting stories regarding the ways God deals with people, and I think it brings out a bit of a contrast. At the end of Acts 12, it tells the story of King Herod’s demise. He spoke a terrific speech, and the people cried they were the words of … Read More

We got to talking about the lives of Christians and non-Christians and how they are different … Read More
The Power of Fasting
One of the things that constantly surpises me, is how powerful something like fasting has shown itself to be to effect change in my spiritual walk. One of the most challenging things a Christian must do is put down their flesh. There are few instances where I don’t know the right thing to do in … Read More
Being Blameless
Philippians 1:9-10 9And this is my prayer: that your love may abound more and more in knowledge and depth of insight, 10so that you may be able to discern what is best and may be pure and blameless until the day of Christ, There are two different types of integrity that we need to concern … Read More
Love or Possession?
In reading The Great Divorce recently I came across an interesting distinction between what love is and what it is not. Loving someone in purity and truth means you allow them freedom, even if that means losing them. Your desire for their well being exceeds your desire to have them with you. You see this … Read More
Lessons through circumstances
I think often times God uses circumstances to teach us lessons, and often not the lessons we think we need. One of the lessons that must be driven into us over and over is our reliance on God. Learning to trust Him in all things, and so have peace in difficult situations. Knowing that even … Read More
