Who do you worship?

Who do you worship? Do you worship the King of kings , the Lord of lords,or is your fellowship with something that is dead like an idol? Because an idol is something an image or representation of a god used as an object of worship .A person or thing that is greatly admired, loved, or revered. Where does your worship belong to? Are you bowing down to money, power, popularity, your self, food, TV, etc.. How can we worship the things made, instead of God who is not made?! As the word of God…

Would they have been better off...

More memories are coming back. I feel like crying...Some memories I can't even talk about.

Would they have been better off without me? Would they have been better off if I was never born?

It wasn't just the bullies, it wasn't just the cats getting poisoned, it just wasn't watching my uncle play evil video games/horror movies were on t.v while growing up.

Did she hate me? Did I make her final years miserable?

I was in a program…

Purpose, A Hammer, and Flying. Ephesians 2.10.

Good Day.

Consider a hammer. It’s designed to hit nails. That’s what it was created to do. Now imagine that the hammer never gets used. It just sits in the toolbox. The hammer doesn’t care. …

Full of God

If we would fill ourselves so full of God....there would be no room for the devil. We let God slip out little by little and the devil slips in little by little. Keep full of God and the devil has no where to slip in! And when he tries, pour a little more God in!!!

O Lord, I know in my heart,

that I can be truly transformed

Renew in me a fresh heart;

modify my ungodly behavior;

keep me solely focused on the…

permanent work of my Savior!

Spark my being with the Divine;

rekindle my love of Your Word;

rejuvenate the…

Patiently, I wait, shedding anxieties

about my earthly troubles and circumstance.

Joyfully, I petition Thee with prayers,

thankful that You are… Lord of the…

Prayer For The Day!

Dear Heavenly Father,I am thankful that You have set me free from the power of sin through the death, burial and resurrection of Jesus Christ. Lord, You have given us power over the devil. Let us be faithful to exercise our authority over him and not allow the devil to come and rob from us. Father, You made the earth and called it good, and we now can look around and see the things that the devil has done to make it bad. Help each of us, as Christians to do our part to change this…
