The Lord is thy keeper; the Lord is thy shade upon thy right hand.  The sun shall not smite thee by day, nor the moon by night. The Lord shall preserve thee from all evil:  He shall preserve thy soul.  The Lord shall preserve thy going out and thy coming in from this time forth, [...]

WHEN PASTORS DISCOURAGE PEOPLE, BECAUSE THEY ARE DISCOURAGED

Update:  May 2, 2011.  We went back to this church, yesterday,  after over a month.  I still do not know what the will is of the Lord for us, in this.  I never want to hurt anyone, by what I write.  Nor do I touch the anointed of God, by being critical.  I never mention [...]

It is the Holy week.  The week, where Christians, remember, Christ, and His sacrifice, by going to the cross, for our sins.  It is also Passover week, the week, God’s people, were freed, from Egypt.

STRENGTH WHAT MAKES US STRONG? (IS YOUR FAITH FALTERING?)

SHOULD CHRISTIANS COMPETE WITH ONE ANOTHER? (MINISTRIES, LEADERS, FRIENDS, ETC)

My thoughts, on this are NO.  But there always has to be a balance.  What are the motives?  What is at stake?  Will my participation, purposely serve to hurt someone?  Or bless someone?  Can I enter this, to bring glory to God?  Or to myself? (It scares me, if it was all about me.)  How [...]

A MATTER OF HONORING GOD (What are you going to do for Halloween?)

You know, people, make mistakes.  Even Christians make mistakes. No one is perfect, no one is exempt.  The Bible tells us, we ALL have sinned, and come short of the glory of God.  You could call some mistakes, though, disobedience, and sin.  God knows the heart. I have made mistakes, and even spiritual mistakes.  For [...]

HAVE YOU EVER BEEN HURT BY RELIGIOUS PEOPLE YOU THOUGHT WERE BROTHERS AND SISTERS IN CHRIST?

I have.  I have been hurt by religious people, that I thought, were brothers and sisters in Christ. You know, I think, that is the most grievous sense of betrayal, one can receive, when they are hurt by people, they loved, in the body of Christ. I had been in a place of authority, where [...]
