From Faith To Faith!

John 3:16 "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life." 　 Let me start by saying that "IF" there is a GOD (and there is) and "IF"we are created and not evolved (and we are created), then there is no price that can be put on human life. Well. . . No price that we can pay! Even if you had a bank account that could pay off the world's debt a million times and still have enough to buy every one in North America a tank of gas everyday until gas ran out (with inflation) you would still be short. But it seems that we (humans) don't see it that way. The world would have you believe that you are nothing but the sum of a billion years of circumstance, culminated and defined by your failures and ultimately replaced after your death by someone who is better than you. All of that to carry the torch of evolution into the future. However . . . We know that we are mor

1Jn_5:4  For everyone who has been born of God overcomes the world. And this is the victory that has overcome the world—our faith.  In life we lose. We lose jobs, friends, girlfriends and loved ones, to downsizing, time, and death. We lose ourselves in the opinions of others and the world. Some would say "That's life". But the word says "Php_1:21  For to me to live is Christ, and to die is gain".   What are we focusing on in this world? To many of us never learn how to lose. We are in essence "sore losers" who teach our kids to be "sore losers".  There is a old song that says: "Little flowers never worry when the wind begins to blow. . . If it never ever rains then they will never ever grow."  All of your troubles, set backs,and losses are not what the world makes them out to be. They are opportunities for GOD to work in our lives. And there will be plenty of opportunities for GOD to show up and out. As we Live in this worl

So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand . ~ Isaiah 41:10 No matter what you are going through GOD will bring you through! " That is all"! Even as I type this I am struggling. Struggling to stay focused and struggling to stay encouraged. Even as I hunger for the place of my destiniy, and can see in my mind where GOD wants me to be, I struggle. Yes everyone has doubts and fears. Everyone has a struggle that they war against within themselves. At times we are our own worst enemy. Our GOD allows the struggle, and the outside influences to constantly remind us that by ourselves we are nothing. But with GOD all things are possible. Fear can paralyze,and doubt can distract . . . But GOD can take our fear, and doubt to uphold us in His hands. We are His buisness. We are His priority, and there is nothing more important to Him in this world. He wants us to

Psalm 46:10(NIV)  He says, “Be still, and know that I am God; I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth.” GOD IS ASKING YOU TO GET OUT OF THE KITCHEN SO HE CAN WORK!      My wife will be the first one to tell you that I can cook really well. However when my wife is in the kitchen I have a tendency to get in her way. Most times things flow better for my  wife when I am not trying so hard to inject my "help" into her process.       She asks me politely: " Honey please step aside so I can finish what I am doing."      What she really means  is: "Will you get on;  and sit down somewhere! I know what I am doing and I do not need your help!"      There is no love lost in this seamless transaction that is understood fully by myself with just a simple respectful request and look that is unmistakably firm.  And I would be a fool to continue my course of action after what she said has been fully understood.       It is no dif
