Imagine going to a Sunday church service to sing unto the Lord, hear a life-challenging sermon, dedicate a few minutes (out of the weekly 10,080) to greet and fellowship with others, and then leave somewhat disappointed because you were dissatisfied with the worship! "I really didn't like the worship today." Yep, those are the exact … Continue reading I Didn’t Like The Worship

The Things Which Are Not
As it is written: I have made you a father to many nations, even before God whom you have believed, who gives life to the dead, and calls those things which are not, as though they were. Romans 4:17 I came across the above image on a Facebook post. The accompanying comment was, "This is … Continue reading The Things Which Are Not
Sometimes We Are The Mountain
Jesus replied, “Because you have so little faith. Truly I tell you, if you have faith as small as a mustard seed, you can say to this mountain, ‘Move from here to there,’ and it will move. Nothing will be impossible for you.” Matthew 17:20 Mountains are some of the most incredible wonders of our … Continue reading Sometimes We Are The Mountain
Taking Offense
We shouldn't be shocked or take offense when non-Christians mock our faith and beliefs. Jesus was not only mocked for His teachings but hated and ultimately crucified.

COPD, the new pandemic!?
No, not medical COPD (Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease), which affects about 328 million worldwide. I am referring to social COPD (Celebrity Obsessed Psychological Disorder), which affects over half of the 4.48 billion people who use social media today! It's disappointing enough to see what news networks have become. They've gone from reporting events as they … Continue reading COPD, the new pandemic!?

And pray that you might be strong enough to ESCAPE from all these coming evils.”Jesus If you work at a large company in the U.S. you are most likely familiar with OSHA, the Occupational Safety and Health Administration. OSHA's purpose is to ensure safety in the workplace by setting and … Continue reading Sometimes all we need is a near miss.
||| – Game Over
We don’t get several lives to come back and change the outcome of our bad choices; we have only the one, then it is “game over.” So, choosing to live prudently and wisely does not only benefits us in the here an now, but also in the eternal here after.
