Don't Regret Your Regrets - Learn From Them
You know, sometimes I think back on my life and cringe at some of the mistakes I’ve made. Regrets, we all have them. It may be something you wish you hadn’t done, or a missed opportunity where you didn’t take action and wish that you had. It might be something that was done to you; you were the v...

Jesus Knows Your Name, Not Your Labels
“He entered Jericho and was passing through. And behold, there was a man named Zacchaeus. He was a chief tax collector and was rich. And he was seeking to see who Jesus was, but on account of the crowd he could not, because he was small in stature. So he ran on ahead and climbed up into a sycamor...

Forgiveness Isn't About Deserving
The longer I live, the more I get surprised by people. By surprised, I mean hurt. What really sucks is no matter how righteous we think we are, at least for me, I will forgive them but some times hang onto a feeling of, “I forgive you, but you don’t deserve it!” Ever had that thought? You probabl...

Grace Not Works: The Foundation of True Service
You know, I started talking about “doing good” yesterday and asked that we find the why behind our works. I want to dig a little more and discuss our efforts. You see, far to often people think they can earn their way into Heaven by simply doing good. While that’s nice and all, there will be many...

What Is Grace Exactly?
#TBT9/25/19Grace. What is it exactly? I mean I sign off with,“Grace wins” everyday, but what exactly am I talking about? Well, in the book of Romans, Paul tells us that we can’t receive God’s favor, become righteous, by works alone. Meaning simply obeying the laws of the land wouldn’t get us His...

Ever get mad? Sure you do, we all do. I get so mad at the people who haven’t learned that the left lane is for passing only, not cruising, I work myself into a mess! I mean how can people operate with this level of stupidity and selfishness? Anyhow, where was I going with this? Oh yeah...Sometime...

When Jesus Has the Last Word
Read this and for a second, think about what is going on here:“And after crying out and convulsing him terribly, it came out, and the boy was like a corpse, so that most of them said, "He is dead." But Jesus took him by the hand and lifted him up, and he arose.”Mark 9:26-27 You see, Jesus’ love a...

God Never Leaves You, Even in Sin
You ever get the feeling sometimes that when we sin, that God has left you? Like the feeling you had when you were a kid and you got in trouble with your parents and they punished you and during that moment you felt like they have left you? I have for sure. But the thing is, that feeling that our...

Using Your Blessings to Share the Gospel
“Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit,”Matthew 28:19 So, let talk about these blessing we’ve been given. I got to thinking more about why, at certain times, we feel we are blessed more than others. And by “o...

Seize God's Daily Opportunities for Service
I’ve been thinking a lot lately about some of my habits, but good and bad, and how I’ve been using the talents God has blessed me with. More specifically, am I taking about the opportunities He’s put before me and if I’m using them? Well, I hope so and I hope you are too. But understand, opportun...

Worship the One Who Died: Victory Over Death
You know, we are all pushed in many ways by others in directions that can alter our relationship with Christ. I read a quote yesterday that said, “don’t let someone who didn’t die for affect the way you worship someone who did.” Wow, I love it. We read in Revelations, “When I saw him, I fell at h...

Taking Inventory of God's Good Gifts
So to take us into the weekend, I thought I’d have a little fun but ask a serious question too. First, I grabbed a verse from James. I grabbed 1:17, because my race number is 117. Why not right? “Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of lights, with who...

Look Up to God, Not Inward at Yourself
You ever slowed down enough to take a look at how self obsessed our culture has become today? Man, I have. Everywhere you turn it’s another “be the better you” or whatever. We hardly notice anymore how self-obsessed we’re encouraged to be, how self-absorbed we really are. We’re so bent on improvi...

Keep Your Eyes on Jesus Through Life's Storms
My whole life, when I became frustrated with my circumstances, my dad would quote to me, “oh ye of little faith”. I use to make me more mad because I wanted him to tell me what to do or fix it for me. But you see, he was really just telling me where to go for my answers to my problems. “But when...

Overflowing Cup - Forever in the Lord's House

We are His sheep after all...Anyhow, for me it’s the promise that I love so much;“You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies; you anoint my head with...

He Is Risen: The Promise Jesus Made Plain
I’m a “straight shooter”, meaning I am pretty much going to call it like I see it and tell it like it is. Some appreciate it, some don’t like it. But its just the way I am. Jesus, on the other hand, wasn’t always direct. He often taught His lessons through Parables. Many of which, for me, take so...

Justified by Faith: Getting Right with God
I’ve been thinking the last couple of days about the journey we have been on together and some of the topics I chase down a rabbit hole. Not that I think they’re necessarily bad topics or irrelevant, I just think it’s good to get back to center. Level set, if you will. So, with that being said, I...

Making Hard Decisions with God's Guidance
It’s hard making big decisions in life. Often times we put it off or because we are so afraid we don’t make them at all. But in those circumstances that demand a grown up response, those who trust in God can look to him for guidance. That’s the only way I know how to make them. In the Bible David...
