Time is ticking, ticking by,
Birds are singing, babies cry,
Hearts are mourning things long dead,
Words ill spoken, should not said.
So regretful, those who mourn
Over things should not been born,
Wish that they could all erase,
And the truth not have to face.

Even if...
Trying times are all around us,
Circumstances, they confound us,
Memories past they sometimes hound us,
Give them all to God, He’ll help us.
Hurtful memories often linger,
Raw emotions they may trigger,
Makes no sense, but so go figure.
God is sovereign, and He’s bigger!
Sometimes people...

We read in 2 Samuel 11 a story about King David, who was regarded as a man after God’s own heart. One day David lusted after a woman named Bathsheba. From his roof he saw her bathing, and so he inquired about her. He found out who she was, and that she was married to Uriah, one of his soldiers...
An Original Work / March 10, 2018
Based off Psalm 36
You speak words of love to me,
But your actions deny them.
Your eyes, full of adultery,
Testify against you.
Promises made, but not kept,
Words spoken, often in jest,
Hardhearted and prideful unrest,
Put your Lord to the test.
You think...

Do you ever feel like what you have done is so bad that you could never be forgiven? Are you afraid to tell the truth for fear you will be rejected? Or, out of fear of other consequences? Do you remain in sinful addiction because you have given up hope of ever changing?
The Lord Jesus led me to...
Beware!
Both Jude and Peter warn us about a group of people who will infiltrate into the church and will have a terrible influence on many in the body of Christ. Their descriptions of these folks are similar. Jude says it this way:
3 Beloved, although I was very eager to write to you about our...
Our God, the One and Only True God – Father, Son and Holy Spirit – is absolutely amazing! His grace is amazing! He loves us so much that he, Jesus Christ, God the Son, died on a cross for our sins. He died that we might die to sin and live to righteousness. He died, not just to free us from the...
