Feeling Alone

What Next???

With the clock counting down, I could only sit watching for a miracle comeback... yet the comeback was nowhere in sight.

Engaged, and Discouraged.

Being engaged is suppose to be one of the most wonderful times of a person's life... and yet it seems even in the happiest of moments someone or something is still trying to bring us down...

God's Unfailing Promises

When things seem to be going badly, we often wonder where God is, and if He is really going to keep His promises. The truth is, God not only keeps His promises, but does it in a way that is more amazing and wonderful than we could ever imagine... even if at the moment it seems He has completely forgotten about us...

Icy Roads

With so many challenges in life, it is very easy for us to want to take charge and try to handle everything ourselves, but in the end we find ourselves worse off, and crying for the Help of the Lord, who is always faithful...

Should We Fear Death?

Death is something that continuously intrigues the human mind... so much so that we are surrounded by movies concerning the afterlife, books explaining the afterlife, and even philosophers trying to explain it... yet there's one Book that gives a clear definition, and tells whether we as Christians should be fearful of what many claim to be "the unknown..."

Trusting God

Sometimes it isn't easy for us to trust God, and these are usually the times where we need to trust Him the most...

I Will Come to You

Have you ever felt like no one understands you, or that you are all alone? Have you ever wondered what to do next, or even if it was worth the struggle?

God, Are You Listening?

Have you ever prayed to God for something, only to be left wondering if God was even listening?

Where did God Go???

Sometimes we feel out of touch with God, or we look at all of the terrible things happening in the world and ask how a loving God could let them happen... sometimes we wonder if God is really keeping His promises, and if He is still even there...

Be Peculiar?

God calls for us to be "peculiar," a word that means to be odd, unique, eccentric... but in the same way light becomes peculiar in the dark...

Trying Times

With gas prices around $4 a gallon, foreclosures on the rise, and the price of necessities such as food and electricity increasing, many families are struggling to survive. Struggling to keep food on the table, and a roof over their heads... and some families are at the breaking point, a point where they are waiting for the final notice on their home. A point where they are asking "how a loving God could let this happen..."

My Significant Other

Sometimes it seems our relationship with God is at a stand still, that we're not improving, or that God's just not there for us... sometimes it's easy for us to feel like giving up and moving on...

Something Special

Of all the ways God could have come to the earth as a man, why did He come as a carpenter... a nobody?

Sowing in Tears

We are often able to focus on all the bad things that happen in our lives, the things that make us cry, mourn, and sometimes even question life and God's will for us... yet we often forget how blessed we are, and all the joy that God has brought into our life...

Stormy Seas

We all experience these types of storms, maybe not being in the sea and having waves crash against our boat, but we experience it in different forms. Here we are, sailing along in life, and then something unexpected and violent occurs. Maybe we lose our job, or worse, the loss of a family member... one of the hardest storms we face is depression... when we start to give up hope...

James 3:9-12
[9] Therewith bless we God, even the Father; and therewith curse we men, which are made after the similitude of God. [10] Out of the same mouth proceedeth blessing and cursing. My brethren, these things ought not so to be. [11] Doth a fountain send forth at the same place sweet water and bitter? [12] Can the fig tree, my brethren, bear olive berries? either a vine, figs? so can no fountain both yield salt water and fresh.

Exodus 20:12
[12] Honour thy father and thy mother: that thy days may be long upon the land which the LORD thy God giveth thee.

Romans 13:2
[2] Whosoever therefore resisteth the power, resisteth the ordinance of God: and they that resist shall receive to themselves damnation.

Leviticus 19:11
[11] Ye shall not steal, neither deal falsely, neither lie one to another.

Hebrews 12:6
[6] For whom the Lord loveth he chasteneth, and scourgeth every son whom he receiveth.

Exodus 20:4
[4] Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image, or any likeness of any thing that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth:
