Last week I left off talking about being perfect.  So, let’s start off this week on the same theme, but today let’s look at what it means to be called, “Holy.”   I Peter 1:15 But just as he who called you is holy, so be holy in all you do; 16 for it is written:Continue reading “God is Holy”

Have you noticed the world is filled with brokenness, fragility, error and guilt coupled with the inherent recognition of imperfection? Wait…what is perfection? Matthew 5:48 Be perfect, therefore, as your heavenly Father is perfect. Ok, so I have a confession to make… I’m not perfect. Yet, at the same time I am told to be,Continue reading “Human Bankruptcy”

Throughout the world we see more persecution of Christians than any other time in history.  In America we have been sequestered from this persecution and in fact you may not even know of the worldwide attack on Christians. I ponder if we have shut ourselves in Christian circles and shut ourselves from the world ofContinue reading “Persecution”

“He saved them from the hand of the foe; from the hand of the enemy he redeemed them. But they soon forgot what he had done and did not wait for his plan to unfold. In the desert they gave in to their craving; in the wilderness they put God to the test. So, heContinue reading “I Remember…”

There have been a few times in my life when I experienced what I would call Righteous Anger.  In each of these cases I was working and came across a case where a child or elderly person had been hurt or abused.  In those times I was angry at the person who would hurt aContinue reading “Righteous Anger”

Well, it seems that the more I write about anger the more opportunity I have to practice what I preach; I’m almost tempted to change the subject.  Perhaps you have felt the same way as you have read the past couple days about anger. Let’s not give up hope, God gives us opportunities to practiceContinue reading “Let Go Of Anger”

What are we to do with this anger that we feel building up inside of us?  Obviously, God wants us to deal with it in a Biblical manner, or He would not have given us: Ephesians 4:26 “don’t sin by letting anger control you.” Don’t let the sun go down while you are still angry,Continue reading “Anger Management”

“Do not say, “I cannot help having a bad temper.” Friend, you must help it. Pray to God to help you overcome it at once, for either you must kill it, or it will kill you. You cannot carry a bad temper into heaven.” – Charles Spurgeon As I go through my battle with cancer,Continue reading “Anger – Part 1”

There is an older gentleman that I know, and I would say that he is filled with love.  I cannot ever remember him not being loving and patient with everyone he encounters.  He is loved and respected by kids of ages and adults for he loves them all the same.  I wonder if people seeContinue reading “Call on Jesus”

What does love, real love look like? Well that’s easy, just look in the Bible, “Love is patient and kind. Love is not jealous or boastful or proud or rude. It does not demand its own way. It is not irritable, and it keeps no record of being wronged. It does not rejoice about injusticeContinue reading “Real Love”

We have been looking to get a nice used car for my daughter and this experience is turning into a labor of love, or is it a test of my love??  I seem to think the important things are to find a safe, reliable, dependable vehicle.  Considerations such as make, model, color or trim levelContinue reading “Faithful Love”
