Are You An FBI Agent?

"For I am not ashamed of the Gospel (good news) of Christ, for it is God's power working unto salvation [for deliverance from eternal death] to everyone who believes with a personal trust and a confident surrender and firm reliance, to the Jew first and also to the Greek," (Rom 1:16 AMP) The FBI,...

Kindness is Contagious!

Remember the words of Jesus as quoted in the Bible? “Do unto others as you would have them do unto you.” (paraphrased) "And as ye would that men should do to you, do ye also to them likewise" (Luke 6:31). (KJV) This scripture came to life when I read the email below. These five lessons are good... Sign in to see full entry.

It's Too Soon To Quit!

Paul wrote much of the New Testament, and he did so without fear or favor. He never pulled any punches. Paul cared too much about the souls of people to withhold the pure unadulterated truth. He was NEVER a "do as I say, not as I do" type leader. He spent a lot of time building people up and... Sign in to see full entry.

Who Would You Rather Have?

Faster than a speeding bullet. More powerful than a locomotive. Able to leap tall buildings in a single bound. Look! Up in the sky! It's a bird. It's a plane. It's Superman! I remember the popular TV program well! Everybody knows and loves Superman. He was the man that could save the day in... Sign in to see full entry.

Real Hope is the Anchor of Our Soul

(18) "That by two immutable things, which it was impossible for God to lie, we might have a strong consolation, who have fled for refuge to lay hold upon the hope set before us: (19) Which hope we have as an anchor of the soul, both sure and stedfast, and which endures into that within the veil;"...

Never Lose Hope...

Hope sees the invisible. Hope achieves the impossible. Hope is much, much more than wishful thinking. Never lose hope! This is just a short tidbit for the moment. I am not well this morning, but hope to feel better later today and I will expand my thoughts on hope. I will also catch up with reading... Sign in to see full entry.

The Master's Touch

It's a beautiful, cold Monday morning in Texas, but would be considered mild compared to other parts of the country where snow blankets the area. God has allowed us another day, and what we do with it is entirely up to us. Some rejoice, some grumble and complain that the weekend was too short, and... Sign in to see full entry.

DNA says that YOU are SPECIAL

You Are Somebody.... God Doesn't Make Junk No other person has ever been born, nor will there ever be one, who is exactly like you. Your DNA is yours and can't be duplicated. God created you to be different from everyone else, and that makes you special. No one has your point of view, your... Sign in to see full entry.

Need Ca$h?

I do know what you mean. It seems like these days that the phrase, "easy come, easy go" is more like, "hard to come, hard to hold on to." We are indeed living in a time where there is unrest on many fronts. The economy is at a very low water mark, the auto industry is hanging on by a thread, the Dow... Sign in to see full entry.

An Rx For What Ails You!

Have you had a good laugh today? It's good medicine! Wise old Solomon determined this many years ago and wrote in his book of Proverbs, "A merry heart doeth good like a medicine, but a broken spirit drieth the bones." (Proverbs 17:22) The original Hebrew definitions: merry = blithe, gleeful, be... Sign in to see full entry.
