The apostle proves the doctrine he had blamed the Galatians for rejecting; namely, that of justification by faith without the works of the law. This he does from the example of Abraham, whose faith fastened upon the word and promise of God, and upon his believing he was owned and accepted of God as a righteous man. The Scripture is said to foresee, because the Holy Spirit that indited the Scripture did foresee. Through faith in the promise of God he was blessed; and it is only in the same…

John 3:18-21 18 “There is no judgment against anyone who believes in Him. But anyone who does not believe in Him has already been judged for not believing in God’s one and only Son. 19 And the judgment is based on this fact: God’s light came into the world, but people loved the darkness more than the light, for their actions were evil. 20 All who do evil hate the light and refuse to go near it for fear their sins will be exposed. 21 But those who do what is…

Dear Heavenly Father, I am grateful for Your loving kindness toward me. I do appreciate Your grace and mercy in my life. When I come to You asking for forgiveness of my sins, I can feel Your mighty power cleansing me. I do want You to correct me when I need it, as I do not want to get off of the path of holiness. Lord, use me to reach out to those around me with the same love You have shown me. Guide me today in the things that I should do. Sometimes I feel overwhelmed with so many…

⁵ For his anger endureth but a moment; in his favour is life: weeping may endure for a night, but joy cometh in the morning. (biblegateway, KJV)

Ok, as my last post on my last blog tells I wasn't having a very good night. But, praise God things are atleast a little better.

I cried this morning in bed. Guess what song came to mind? Amy Grants "Carry You". I think the Lord used to to…

It's my fault. If my mom joins the JW, it'll be my fault.

You see, I'm the one who invited the JW in the first place (they came when I was on Summer Vacation right before 1oth grade). I know it would have been worse if the JW who came last fall would have been the one to start a bible study though. Since, I probably wouldn't have been very prepared or even bothered to research much about the JW if it wasn't for the previous JW people.

But, still, it'll be my…

Dear Heavenly Father, Thank you for Your abundant love and mercy that You have shown to all of us. I have needed Your mercy on many occasions. When I have called out to You, You have never failed to reach down and restore me when I have failed You, and sinned. I am grateful for Your unchanging love. Help me to be like You and show mercy and love to those around me, even when they have failed me. Cleanse me from all unrighteousness in my heart. May Your love manifest in the body of…

I'm wondering if I'm spirtually depressed or if this situation has caused be to be phyiscally depressed. Ether way my heart is filled with sorrow. It hurts to know there's people who are controlled and will refuse to listen because they're slaves to men.

Fear is paralyzing, worry makes it worse. Knowing talking to people around will only make things worse. Not knowing what to say to Jesus. It's bad enough not being good verbally but when life has the mind paralyzed as…

Heb 2:14-18 14 Because God’s Children are human beings—made of flesh and blood—the Son also became flesh and blood. For only as a human being could He die, and only by dying could He break the power of the devil, who had the power of death. 15 Only in this way could He set free all who have lived their lives as slaves to the fear of dying. 16 We also know that the Son did not come to help angels; He came to help the descendants of Abraham. 17 Therefore, it was…

Dear Father God, I am ever so grateful to have access to a reservoir of wisdom, counsel, and guidance in knowing You. I know when I have a problem I can ask You how to solve it, and You always have the perfect answer. Thank you for sending my answers in many different ways, and through many different people. I have been very blessed by the family of God, as they have reached out to help us in so many ways. I do appreciate the prayers of Your people. I also thank you for speaking to…

Inexplicably, my presence invokes your smile

in instances of pure and uncontained joy.

Can You Really Love Me So?



I dare not ask this question aloud -

fearful that you won't confirm our union.



Being together is magical for me;

each shared moment illuminates my life

with Hope's brightest light.



I dare not ask this question aloud -

Can You Really Love Me So?



Our natural chemistry is a catalyst,

igniting passion that comes…

Out from the darkness,

having a lifestyle that's plain to see,

I'm standing fully in the Light

of God's transparency.



I have no hidden agendas,

nor malicious motives;

my heavenly light is set upon a hill,

shining as a diminutive votive.



I'm a human jar of clay,

desiring true spiritual brokenness;

for God's vessels draw men to Him,

via the sparkling of His Holiness.



For the nakedness of Life

is my personal…

It comes to my mind....can my life really make a difference? It comes to mind especially when I look through pictures of when I was little. Knowing...I could have been aborted...death tried to get me many times...suicide wanted to take my life (I even looked at a bottle of pills during that time in 8th grade and thoughts of suicide went through my head). But, praise be to God I'm still here. Seeing pictures of a little baby on her first birthday, getting kissed in front of a laundrey mat by…

Dear Father God, I thank you for showing me daily the path of righteousness and helping me to walk on it. Lord, deliver me from every angry thought so that those thoughts do not become deeds. I desire to have a clean heart and mind. Lord, grant me the strength to perform my responsibilities toward all men and most of all, to take care of my responsibilities in the kingdom of God. Help me to make this world a better place to live. Lord, fill me with Your spirit so that I can love all men…

You will see this in many places on this site. WE MUST PRAY AND LIFT UP PART OF OUR FAMILY IN NIGERIA. AND, ANY OTHER PLACE THEY ARE KILLING OUR FAMILY BECAUSE THEY LOVE JESUS!!! WE MUST PRAY, PRAY, PRAY. LET US JOIN THEM AND STAND IN AGREEMENT WITH THEIR PRAYERS OF FAITH. THEY ARE KILLING OUR FAMILY!!

I know I've said I'm afraid of the elder and intimidation. But, I think God has shed light on this situation.

I'm afraid I'm not going to be able to answer them (especially on the deity of Christ). I'll make Christ look bad and I'd be totally humiliated in front of the people for not knowing the right answer.

So, as the truth has/is being revealed I'm not as scared (still a little atleast though).

 pray God sheds more light on this issue and…

Dear Father God, I am so blessed to have You in my life. Thank You for loving me and giving me eternal life. Lord, I am also very grateful to have a wonderful, godly husband who is loving and kind. You have blessed us with a good family. We are thankful for loving children and grandchildren. We have also been blessed with many wonderful friendships over the years that have grown stronger today in the love of God. How blessed we are with kind, caring, friends that have demonstrated their…

Ok, I have to open up...what happened in 8th grade. Opening up helps.

My mom told me don't go into chatrooms when I was younger. Well, when I was in 8th grade guess what I did? I went into a chat room on Skype. I thought he was my friend. Well, he asked for something personal, I think he wanted to know what state I lived in. I think I may have told him. I was only like I think 15...

What scares me is when I think I was hesitant he told me I guess we're not…
