Faithfulness Is Not a Tool To Avoid Problems But a Tool To Power Through Them
Faithfulness… What does that word mean to you? It might mean trust, loyalty, closeness, truth or maybe perseverance. Sure, all of those words encompass the meaning of faithfulness but I believe that the true foundation of the word is belief; a belief in something greater than I can see or comprehend. How many times can… Continue reading

Life Moves Pretty Fast. If You Don’t Stop And Look Around Once In A While, You Could Miss It.
“In the same way, let your light shine before others, that they may see your good deeds and glorify your Father in heaven”(Matthew 5:16). As Christians, we often talk about living our lives in such a way that others see God’s light shining through us. It’s the idea that actions speak louder than words. While… Continue reading

What To Do If You Tired Of Toughing It Out
Have you ever noticed how so many different thoughts run through our minds every day? Some are good, some bad. Unfortunately, our natural temptation is to focus on the bad; so accepting them doesn’t take any effort. The effort comes when we’re determined to cast down the negative thoughts, and take a firm grasp of… Continue reading

The Power Of Peace
Having an attitude of peace and calm is priceless. It’s an attitude that says, “I’m trusting God,” and it speaks powerfully to people. But it takes time, focus and the grace of God to be consistently peaceful. One way to develop consistent peace is to learn to live “in the now.” We can spend a… Continue reading

How To Love People More And Judge Less
Recently I read a book called “Driven by Eternity” by John Bevere. This book has had an amazing impact in my life and has forever changed the way I love and view the people around me. This revelation could not have come at a more perfect time… Shortly after reading this book, I saw a… Continue reading

Stop Criticizing And Start Participating
A couple of years ago, I got myself into trouble in my walk with God. I started getting really into Christian debates. I’m not against people defending the Christian faith, but listening to these arguments consumed me. I would listen to them every day. Before I knew it, I found myself using His Word to… Continue reading

Faking It
One recent morning I was kneeling down in my prayer closet (literally my closet), and Holy Spirit gave me revelation that has really shifted my perspective. The day before I was challenged to start my prayer with praise, so I did that. But I was not “feeling” thankful, and I knew I had to be… Continue reading

Unconventional Follower of Jesus Christ
I think you can follow Jesus and still be a unique, complicated individual. I think that’s the only way to authentically live. To be yourself. Lately, I’ve run into situations where I feel the need to be someone I’m naturally not, just for the sake of appearing to be a Christ follower to the world.… Continue reading

When God Leads You to an Obstacle, What Should You Do?
Transformation isn’t neat and pretty. Nope. It can look messy and it not without obstacles. It’s like putting a piece of furniture together. At first it’s neatly in a box, but it can’t be used that way. So you have to take out all the pieces, which makes a mess, and begin the process. You… Continue reading

Goodbye To Perfection
Growing up, I have always tried to be this “perfect” embodiment of what I believed a good, morally upstanding person should be. I have come a long way from that insecure, control-freak of a person I used to be. Here’s the truth: we are not really in control, anyway. Unfortunately, this was the start of… Continue reading

Expect Something Good To Happen
Sometimes when you’ve had a series of disappointing things happen, you can get in the habit of expecting more of what you already have. I used to be like that. My motto was, “If you don’t expect anything good to happen, then you won’t be disappointed when it doesn’t.” But this isn’t how God wants… Continue reading

When Do We Offer Thanksgiving? At All Times
In every situation, in all things and by so doing we enter into the victorious life where the devil cannot control us. How can he control us if we are going to be joyful and thankful no matter what the circumstances are? Admittedly, this kind of lifestyle sometimes requires a sacrifice of praise and thanksgiving,… Continue reading

Take One Day At A Time
I like to describe worry or anxiety as spending today to figure out tomorrow. Let’s learn to use the time God has given to us for what He intended. It sounds easy right??? But in this case easy is far from it. It takes the spirit and grace of God to be at peace with… Continue reading

We Have A Calling On Our Lives To Live
We live in a quit society. I’m guilty of it. You’re guilty of it. We all are. The moment something becomes boring and mundane, we often check out and move on. Let’s face it, life is amazing. There is so much going on in the world at any given moment. They literally invented an iPhone… Continue reading

You Can’t Just Sit At Church And Become Spiritually Strong, Just Like You Can’t Just Sit At The Gym And Expect To Become Physically Strong..
BY CHARLES HAMRICK Most human beings have uttered the words, or some form of them, “I am out of shape” or “I need to get in shape” at some point in their lives. Regardless of the reason behind wanting to get in shape, most all people have an innate desire to be in better shape than they… Continue reading
