During my study of the book of Nehemiah I noticed how Nehemiah was attacked for answering the call that God had for his life. As I studied these attacks, I noticed that these are the same attacks we see taking place today. Satan has the way of ‘reusing’ what has worked for centuries. I thought… Read more »

Signs of Our Time
This morning while I was on my walk, I came upon a small creek that dries up during the summer except for some pools. As I investigated the stream, I saw some small fish and thought how they need to move from where they are before it’s too late. If they do not, then they… Read more »
Government vs. We The People
Short term solutions always have long time consequences. What do I mean? Think of any solution the government has come up that we are not paying the consequences for today in all sorts of ways. Almost 2/3 of our taxes are to pay for short term solutions (unconstitutional entitlements) of the past, throwing money it… Read more »
Looking Forward
One Scripture I have secured in my heart: “Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; old things have passed away; behold, all things have become new.” (2 Corinthians 5:17) When I sit and listen to my mom or sister talk about our past – I find it trivial, so I don’t… Read more »

Crucified with Christ
Readying this morning what God’s servant the apostle Paul said: “For through the law (of Moses) I died to the LAW so that I might live FOR GOD. I HAVE BEEN CRUCIFIED WITH CHRIST and I no longer live, but CHRIST LIVES IN ME! The life I now live in the body, I live by… Read more »
The Spiritual and the Physical are Connected
This morning this passage jumped out at me, and the thought came how the spiritual and physical are connected: “Some false believers have infiltrated our ranks to spy on the FREEDOM we have in Christ Jesus and to make us SLAVES. We did not give in to them for a moment, so that the TRUTH… Read more »
Happy Passover!
As I approach the season of our Lord’s last supper with His disciples and when Christ was crucified on the cross for our sins, and resurrected from death to life opening the way for us – I’m reminded once again to keep my relationship with my Savior and Lord free from anything that would taint… Read more »
