Trusting God

Today is September 12. National Just One Human Family Day. I had no clue what that meant so I looked it up. Basically, in a nut shell, it was established just after the September 11th attacks in 2001 to promote world peace. Recognizing that even though we all have different beliefs, cultures, and ways of…

Remember the days of old, consider the years of many generations. Ask your father, and he will show you; your elders, and they will tell you. Deuteronomy 32:7 The days of our lives are seventy years; and if by reason of strength they are eighty years, yet their boast is only labor and sorrow; for…

I sit here staring at an empty screen and a blinking cursor asking myself, “Is God really calling me to write?” If I am meant to pursue writing then why do I find myself sitting here drawing a blank? I have no idea what I am to write for this post but I do know…

With all the ideas being thrown at us today as right and true, the debate over evolution and Creation seems to not even exist anymore and I think I know why. I believe our culture, including many within the church, have accepted the idea of evolution as truth and now they are having to deal…

Do you find yourself thinking the world couldn’t get any worse? In the midst of political unrest, soaring prices on gas and food, riots and destruction that go unchecked and are even legitimized, the mass killing of unborn children, taking the Bible and any teaching of morals and values out of our schools and replacing…

In my last post, I began by explaining that doubt is a powerful weapon that Satan uses against us as believers. (If you missed that post, you can click here to read it) Our culture comes up with a new “truth” nearly everyday. How do we know what to believe or where to stand? You…
