Genesis 22: “Because you have obeyed me and have not withheld even your son, your only son.” While ready this passage, I asked myself what would I withhold from God? Health, family, fame, riches, position? What I withhold is what God will test me on since He wants to be first in my life. The… Read more »

Remember
Here we are again ending one year and starting a new year. I wonder what this new year will bring to me and my family. I can say this, “My Lord will still be King, and it will be one day closer to His coming.” This morning, I read this and if I had one… Read more »
God’s Direction For You
Next year will you know the direction that God wants for you? God has said to those who are willing to obey, even when everything looks like it is against you, a path you did not know was there – will appear. Psalms 77: 19-20 You path way led through the sea, your pathway… Read more »
Is Jesus Sleeping?
DOES IT SEEM THAT JESUS IS SLEEPING IN YOUR LIFE? Today I am going to share something that I am going through. In Mark chapter 4 the disciples are in a boat with Jesus, and He is asleep. It was Jesus who told them that they were to go to the other side of… Read more »
People Without Vision
People without a vision will not understand a person with a vision. This is very obvious today when you see people who have no vision, attack a person with a vision. A good example is the vision of Jesus, who would have all be saved. And look at how He was attacked. It is the… Read more »

The Light
I woke up the other morning, feeling very discouraged about all the darkness in the world. I begin to think of how many dark times there has been in the world. Such a time was when Israel was removed off the land, and how dark that must have been for the nation of Israel. So,… Read more »
Do You Have Hope?
Ephesians 2:12 “You lived in this world without God and without hope.” What do people do when they have no hope? They imagine and set their own hope, but this type of hope is nothing more than fantasy and promises never kept. Sounds like our politicians today that make promises but are never able to… Read more »
Building a Strong Family
To me raising of a child is similar to building a building. Since I am a builder, I use what I know to compare with. In a building there are three phases of a building: the foundation, the shell, and the interior. I see mothers as laying the foundation of the child, and fathers building… Read more »
Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness
We are called the United States of America, but we are not united! The question is why? Our inalienable rights of life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness as citizens are trying to be removed by people with power who think they know better than our founders. To ‘pursue’ means to go after, and to… Read more »
