What is Truth? (Part 4)

(Another from AUG07... see previous posts...)

I’ve been thinking how the truth affects different people. It’s just like a light shining into a dark place. People react to the truth in one of two ways. Some are drawn like moths, while others scatter like cockroaches.

And people are in the dark for one of two reasons… either ignorance or rebellion. Some don’t know because they haven’t heard. Others don’t know because they don’t WANT to hear.

And that is why… Continue

What is Truth? (Part 3)

(Another from Aug07 - see previous posts!!)

HOW DO WE MEASURE UP?

As I was thinking about truth, it reminded of a rule or a tape measure … something that is reliable… that you can measure by.

And I thought about how we humans measure other people by all sorts of standards… and oh how wrong our judgment can be!! We use the wrong measure. We do not see what’s in the heart.

And then this morning, I thought of the song, “The measure of a… Continue

What is TRUTH?? (Part 2)

(Another from Aug07 - see previous posts!!)

Hey, I’ve had a change of mind. I’ve been doing some more reading about truth, and discovered something different.

Believing the truth, really isn’t the most important thing. I discovered that believing the truth is the result of something more important.

The MOST important thing is to LOVE THE TRUTH!! We firstly need to be SINCERE IN OUR HEART!! That is what God looks at. To start with, the belief system could… Continue

AWRY AND AMUCK

From My Perspective - - -

It’s difficult not to be focused upon the economic concerns of our nation and the world. Most citizens have experienced financial strain, losses, uncertainty and fears regarding the immediate and longer-term stability of employment, debt management, Social Security availability, investment recovery, etc. It seems to be abundantly clear that “financial bailout” is not focused upon the individual’s plight but has become more of a corporate welfare effort.… Continue

What is TRUTH?? (Part 1)

(Another post from the past! In our Jesus Discovery Group, we are currently discussing "Grace and Truth" [John 1:14-18]. "[Jesus] came from the Father, full of grace and truth." The OT equivalent is "Mercy and Truth", so I thought I'd share these blog posts which I posted in August 07. I might learn something, too!! :-) )

The famous words of Pontius Pilate when Jesus was brought to him for questioning!

And today, we often ask the same. How can we know what is really… Continue

vision

What is your vision, what sort of vision should we have ==

What is a right vision and what is a right vision for a child of God were all his kids.

Proverbs 29 v18 declares without a vision the people perish the NIV states without a revelation we will perish my interpretation.

Revelation = who are we in Christ What does Gods word say.

Coming from a family steeped in generational abuse revelation had to come into my life from God to set me free.

My vision of me was a weak… Continue

Pain is not a curse; it's a blessing

When I despair, I look towards the sky and call out to God:

"Father, why have you forsaken me? Why do you make me suffer so? Why do people who don't believe you are better off than I am? If you love me so much, then why don't you make my life wonderful and full of happiness? Why don't you make me better than others? Have you not chosen me out of this world to serve you? So why am I not as good as others? Why is my life more miserable?"

In times like this, I often hear God… Continue

The teasing ends here!

Devotional of the week

Have you ever been teased? I have. And it's not good!

God didn't want this at all, but because we sinned it has kept going and going and going... When we tease others we have foul mouths and we regret what we say and some might say: it is cruel, wicked and nasty.

But we can learn from it by not doing what the rest of the world is doing:

"Therefore, I urge you, brothers, in view of God's mercy, to offer your… Continue

Hard to believe how fast this month has almost come to an end. I know its only Saturday March 14, but wow.

Russell loves working for the Butler Eagle. I miss my mother--n-law living next door to us.

So Near Yet So Far

This heart…she’s crying

Longing to do something that she usually does.

But now, she can’t do it anymore

This makes her feel awful and weep.

She wants to come out of me and just shout

“I am wounded, I am hurt!”

What makes her feel bad is that when she tells it to people around her,

They never realized what she was trying to say.

Nobody around her understands.

She’s grieving.

I can see… Continue
