Hello again.  So, we last left off with the question of how does God’s judgment and the imagery of swords tie into God’s rest.  Also, how do we practically deal with the thoughts & attitudes we carry everyday & how that connects to how we enter into and maintain a steadiness in our walk with…

“Don’t worry friend, just trust in God!”  I’m sure you’ve either heard or said something like this at some point.  The question today is do we truly understand what it means to enter into God’s rest and where do we start? As a quick illustration, I think about getting ready for bed in the evening. …

Continuing from the last post, let’s visit about what it looks like to live a faith life.  First of all, we are to present our bodies as a living and holy sacrifice.  Living means we are always faced with choices, so where does the sacrifice come in?  We come to a fork in the road…

Recently, in a small prayer gathering with some dear friends, the Lord painted a beautiful picture of Romans 12: 1,2 in a remarkable way.  Just when I think the Lord has shown me all that needs to be seen on a particular subject or area of growth – BAM! – he reveals even more.  There…

Consider these main focus points as you move forward in a renewed growth of prayer and praise: Humble yourself before the Lord with respect and submission Offer prayer that Jesus himself would pray; according to His character Linger in His presence and respond joyfully to His communication Let Him set the goals and the pace.…

I’ve been increasingly interested in healthy living for years but in the last few months I’ve dived into a deeper understanding of micronutrients.  At 47 years old, it’s becoming more and more evident that the more attention I pay to the needs of my body, the better I feel and function in everyday life.  Since…

II Thessalonians 1: 11-12 To this end also we pray for you always, that our God will count you worthy of your calling, and fulfill every desire for goodness and the work of faith with power. So that the name of our Lord Jesus will be glorified in you, and you in Him, according to…

It is in our “worldly” nature to get even, to have the last word, to get our point across and heard. To prove why we are right and they are wrong. Jesus always went straight to the core. Jesus Christ completely emptied all that he was to be a humble obedient servant and walked in…
