The other day a man walked through the door of a bar in the countryside. I could see where his heart was, deep inside him, because a well-beaten path led back to his own door. His heart was bare open, plain to see. Our hearts are laid bare open by …the evidences smeared all over the course of our life.
Mutual conversation
Good talk is fun! Put simply: It involves your mouth voicing words with your brain full on, your heart tuned to “nice“, and another talker involved – some listening ear understanding you, involved mutually in the conversation. If there is no understanding – then there is no communication. If it’s not mutual, then there is […]
Seeing clearly now
Seeing clearly now in these End Times is so very difficult. Misinformation floods our mind threatening to throw our thinking every which way. It is easy to get caught-up in questioning the clear teachings in the Bible. Who are we to believe? If we have made a decisive decision to follow Christ, the way is […]
Ask the questions where you’ll get the truth
Funny how we tend to believe what we’re going to believe – no matter what others say. Been there? The same is true with our beliefs about God: With eternity at stake, why do so many not inquire more deeply and seek to know the truth about God? Dive in, there is plenty of evidence […]
Our put down, slap down ways
Take today’s challenge: Try “loving” again. “Do not judge and criticize and condemn [others unfairly with an attitude of self-righteous superiority as though assuming the office of a judge], so that you will not be judged [unfairly].” – Matthew 7:1 The world around us is chuck-full of fault-finding. You might even find it inside your […]
Streaming from my soul
…Joy from the soul of an innocent baby. What is streaming from your soul? What is it, coming out from deep inside you? Jesus said that it is that, what is inside you, that causes us problems. It’s not what’s outside. It’s what’s inside. What content are you streaming from deep inside your soul? Matthew […]
A worthy life
…a life that’s lived for Christ, giving him the reins How I live each day – shows God how much I love Him (or not): How I complete each moment of the day… How I follow His lead, letting Him guide me… How I leave each soul in my wake as my soul meets another. […]
A Healthy Soul
How do you measure the condition of your soul? Checking the condition of something is very common: With vehicle tires, basically you check the tread depth and condition of the sidewalls. With a house appraisal, a professional compares the house with others in the area, checks for soundness of all, inside and out, top and […]
Your Thinking or God’s Word?
Vain, puffed up minds vs. God’s clear Word Spanish version The sin of Eve. Eve believed the tricky, deceptive words of the Serpent, rather than the clearly expressed Word of God about the tree. Eve chose to believe Satan’s lie – rather than choosing to believe the truth of God’s instructions. The Serpent said, “Did […]
Is this you?
…conduct becoming of a true, maturing Christian. A somewhat lengthy study of 1 Thessalonians 5 What Love Does. This passage by Paul the apostle exhorts the believer in Christ, “all believers, those set apart for God” — to live in a manner pleasing to Christ. We of course are not saved by how pleasing we […]
Admitting I was wrong
I’m a’ workin’ more on myself. (I know. It says: I am a working moron myself.) Sometimes I am a moron! I do exactly NOT what I wanted to do, just as the Apostle Paul admitted in Romans 7: verse 15. How foolish is that!? I want to be always right, and always righteous. But […]
Virgins, Talents, and Judgement
…what is necessary to be saved Have you examined your life lately? Try reading through the entire chapter of Matthew 25 and then look at the life you are living — in the context of what Jesus was teaching there. Glean what Jesus is telling us about what is required to be saved. You might […]
See If It’s True
Is Jesus God? If it is true, don’t you want to know that, and follow Him? The best way to know if it’s true — is to examine His claim, right? Or do you want something false? Was Jesus who he said he was? Or not? That is the question. Is it true? Is it […]
Examine Yourselves
The Bible exhorts us to periodically examine our self and make sure you are in the faith. Don’t get caught standing before God Himself and discover there that you are NOT His follower! I would say it is serious enough to say, “Be damn sure you are right with God!” 2 Corinthians 13:5 Test yourselves […]
