Pews, Picnics & Pizza
If there is one thing to be said for countless churches in America in this day and age, it’s that there is a strong and steady stream of people exiting the church pews after services to gladly, happily, yearningly, devotedly, hungrily, and thirstily walk or drive on over to church picnics, church pizza parties, church sports events, church exercise classes, church book clubs, church concerts, church plays, church teas, church field trips, and all sorts of other entertainment, social, and fellows...
Truth & Love
Tell people the truth about the Lord Jesus Christ, and tell them in love. Don’t tell them the truth without love, and don’t love them without telling them the truth. Speak the truth about Jesus with the love of Jesus.
The Lord’s greatest commands are to love Him with all our hearts and to love others as ourselves. We are to do this ourselves and we are to model this and tell this to others. We are not to hold back the truth about Jesus from people nor to hold back love when we tell them.
The Lor...

Totally Devoted
When Jesus called the fishermen to follow Him and told them He would teach them to fish for people (i.e. spread the Gospel message to help build His Kingdom of followers), they forsook how much? ALL! How slowly? Not slowly! Immediately! Ever considered how much they probably gave up to be with Him and to love and serve Him and others? Ever considered how much and exactly what the Lord might call you to forsake for Him to love and serve Him and others?
Think about these fishermen called by Jesus ...

Do Not Forget This!
“Tell them not to forget what I have done,” the Holy Spirit spoke to my heart.
He was giving me a message to share with people far and wide – maybe including you?
The Lord warned the Israelites not to forget all He had done for them in setting them free from horrific bondage in Egypt. Read the Bible to see what happened!
But this isn’t about them. It’s about you and me!
We are not to forget Jesus Christ is Lord and God and master, healer, redeemer, Father, and King. We are not to forget His love...
Always Perfect
“I feel FANTASTIC today Father! So, so, so thankful for all your wisdom, for your perfect will! THANK YOU!” I wrote to the Lord.
God’s will is ALWAYS perfect! He ALWAYS knows what is best! We are called to TRUST HIM, to OBEY HIM, and to BE THANKFUL to Him.
For years, I called Jesus Christ Lord but had little to no trust in the Lord. I rarely if ever thought His will was perfect. I had minimal if any interest in His wisdom. I was anything but thankful for His will in my life let alone in the worl...

Hiding & Hoarding Jesus
When we hide something, we try to keep it where nobody can see. When we hoard something, we keep it to ourselves so we can enjoy it and try to collect and keep as much of it as we can all the while refusing to share it with anyone else. If you are hiding and hoarding the Lord Jesus Christ and your faith in and relationship with Him, please quit right now!
We who believe in and follow Jesus have a responsibility to tell the world about Him and to help people to find and follow Him.
But some peopl...
Your Sin Not Theirs
No matter what everyone around you does or doesn’t do, right or wrong, good or evil, loving and kind or hurtful, horrendous, and heinous, or somewhere in between, YOU are responsible for YOUR own thoughts, words, and actions.
One day you will stand before the Lord and have to given an account of YOUR life. Not his, not hers, not theirs. YOURS.
Years ago, I was continually pointing the finger at my then husband and pridefully judging and condemning him for how he was treating me, for his life’s c...

Put Your Blinders On!
I am not a horse expert, but my understanding of the purpose of blinders used on horses is to keep the horses from looking anywhere other than forward so they are not distracted or deterred from bringing pleasure to and doing the best work possible for the people entrusted with them and whose tender loving care Lord willing they are under.
Friend, we who follow the Lord Jesus Christ need to be very careful to stay focused on the Lord, the Bible, and His will for us going forward. We are to stay ...
