Immature Faith

There are times in life where understanding God’s word has nothing to do with age. Chronological age does not mean maturity in the things of God. There are adults who are immature when it comes to understanding God and his word. Isaiah 28:9 NLT“Who does the Lord think we are?” they ask.    “Why does he speak to us … Continue reading Immature Faith

The Power in Change

New beginnings come with a price; there must be change. We do not always like change because we enjoy the comfort of familiarity. We are comfortable with the way things are. Let us, in this new year, recognize that there is power in change. Jeremiah 33:3 AMP  ‘Call to Me and I will answer you, … Continue reading The Power in Change

Meditate on God’s Faithfulness

One of  God’s attributes is faithfulness; it is who He is. God does not pretend to be loyal and faithful then betray you. We do that to each other. I pray as we meditate on God’s faithfulness, we would grow to become more like He is. Deuteronomy 7:9 AMP Therefore know [without any doubt] and understand that … Continue reading Meditate on God’s Faithfulness

Peace from God

Yesterday, we spoke about peace; it is a gift from God. There are things that come with a price tag. The peace that comes from God is not one of those things. God’s gives peace. Psalm 29:11 NLT The Lord gives his people strength.    The Lord blesses them with peace. Colossians 3:15 AMP  Let the peace of Christ [the inner … Continue reading Peace from God

Walk Like Christ

Children od God are referred to as Christians. It was not a name they chose but a name they earned. Acts 11:26 NLT says,  “When he found him, he brought him back to Antioch. Both of them stayed there with the church for a full year, teaching large crowds of people. (It was at Antioch … Continue reading Walk Like Christ

In His Presence

Children usually love to spend time with their parents. They will play with you and talk with you but there is something about going home with mommy and daddy. Where love exists, there is joy in the presence of that individual. We have someone who loves us so dearly that He laid down His life … Continue reading In His Presence

Serve with Joy

How do you serve others? When we think of serving our thoughts go to the waiter that brings food to your table in a restaurant. For the most part they are pleasant because they would like a good tip. For us, service involves helping and at times, even helping in the care of others. God … Continue reading Serve with Joy

Show a Little Kindness

People love it when we say thank you for the services they provide in our lives. When you exit the bus, it’s polite to thank the bus driver. Many might say that is his job. Think about when you ride the bus at the same time each day, and you are not at the bus … Continue reading Show a Little Kindness

Don’t Follow Them

As unthinkable as it seems. There are people who live lives characterized by ungratefulness. We look down at them; turn our noses down at them only to find that we ourselves are following them. There are numerous examples in Scriptures about ungratefulness. Deuteronomy 32:6 NLT Is this the way you repay the Lord,    you foolish and senseless … Continue reading Don’t Follow Them
