How Long Must I Believe?
“I am so tired of waiting!” “If God is so good, and His promises never fail, why is it taking so long? How much longer must I believe?” Those are honest questions, don’t you think? I mean, really. I understand Rome wasn’t built in a day, but c’mon. Most people despise having to wait. They…

Trust Me
“C’mon, man. You can trust ME.” You’ve probably heard those words a time or two, haven’t you? “Trust me”. Whether spoken by a fast talking used car salesman, a slick politician, or a guy who is trying to put the moves on some unsuspecting chick, words which should carry some of the greatest worth are…

Encouraged By The Beaver
Guest Author – Phyllis Grace I came across this link on Facebook today from Jerry Mathers, who was the star of the old TV show that began in the 50’s, Leave it to Beaver. He was sharing on the occasion of Gus the Fireman’s (Burt Mustin’s) date of birth. He told how he enjoyed working…

If I Won The Lottery
Okay, Powerball participants and enthusiasts, let’s talk about something you and I both like. Money. Lots and lots of money. Approximately eight hundred million dollars worth of money. What would you do with that much money? Can you count that high? I’m not sure I can. I really can’t fathom just how much money…

Can The NSA Stop End Time Prophecies?

I was watching the republican presidential debate the other night and some of their comments got me to mulling over a few ideas in my head. Mainly, can the NSA stop end time prophecies from happening? The NSA (National Security Agency)…

God, Guns, and Faith
I understand our nation’s history, her Minutemen, Paul Reveres, etc., but I’m having a hard time reconciling some of the remarks made by my Christian brethren with what Jesus Himself said. “Put your sword back into its place. For all who take the sword will perish by the sword.” (Matthew 26:52 ESV) “You have heard…

Cheering Them On
Lately I’ve come to realize that I haven’t always been very encouraging when it comes to the younger generation. It’s not as though I’ve said bad things to them, or about them. But I’ve not always viewed them as worthy of my “praise”, if you know what I mean. After all, how could they be…

God Hates Cancer
It’s as though a light suddenly turned on inside my spirit, illuminating my understanding and igniting my faith. As I said a silent prayer for someone we know who just recently was diagnosed with cancer (for the second time), deep in my heart I heard the Spirit of God say, “God hates cancer!” I have…

You WILL Believe
So you’re pretty sure you don’t believe in God, eh? Does it make you feel better about yourself knowing there are others like you? I’d like you to know one thing. You will believe. So will those who believe as you. And it may happen sooner than you think. Regardless of the reasons you can…

TSA Security Officers and Preachers
Just recently I noticed a similarity between TSA security officers and preachers. Maybe more than one. Yeah, more than one. Besides the fact that both have a job to do, there’s something about TSA men and women that makes me think of preachers. TSA folks are, at times, in your face. Why? Because they don’t…
