Deal Or No Deal

From My Perspective - - -

Howie Mandel has taken a “no-brainer” concept for a Game Show and popularized it to a leading prime-time program. There is currently a daily format as well. The simple idea is to guess which case out of 26 contains one million dollars. The concept is not dissimilar to an earlier program with Monty Hall called Lets Make A Deal. Both programs are based on the gambling instincts of people and/or the greed principle. With one program, guess the case with the… Continue

How I feel right now...

Does any one ever feel that they just cant get close enough to Jesus and our God? I suppose this is why I am on this website right now because although I feel close to God and Jesus I feel I want to be even more closer and just cant get enough of that great warming feeling of knowing that God loves me. I just cant seem to stop. Tonight I am planning to watch 'Passion of the Christ' with my best friend and then Sunday I am going to church as usual. Well anyway, I just felt like doing a blog so… Continue

Original Creation of God Gen.1:1

Original Creation of God Gen.1:1

The original creations of God include the heavens and the earth and all things therein as first brought into being.

They were made Perfect The First Time. Gen.1:1 refers to the Dateless past, or the beginning of the creative ages(Job 38 Ps.8:3-8 19:1-6 Pr.8:22-31 1Jn.1:3;10 Acts.17:24-26 Col.1:15-18 Heb.1:1-12,11:3 Rev.4:11).

The Creative Ages

The Creative Ages

Gen.1:1-2:25

Original creation made perfect and inhabited(Isa.45:18)

The world that then was(2Pet.3:5-8).

Dateless Past(Pr.8:22-23 Jn.1:1 Acts.15:18 Eph.3:9 Col.1:18 Heb.1:10;11:3 1Jn.1:1 Rev.1:6 3:14).

It is not a summarized statement of what is to follow,

For it mentions… Continue

Lethargy and Oil-Slick Slopes

From My Perspective - - -

There are many contributing factors when it comes to one being lethargic. The word by definition means: “the quality or state of being drowsy and dull, listless and unenergetic, or indifferent and lazy; apathetic or sluggish inactivity.” It can also include preoccupation with other and lesser things. One’s priorities have become skewed towards the mediocre or unimportant.

The United States has become inundated with Presidential politics to the… Continue

At the Receiving End of a Miracle!

"For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith the Lord, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end."

God hears your prayers and guides you - even in the worst possible circumstances. Oh, He’s so good! All I want to do is shout! Why? Because He surely is “the Lord that healeth thee.” (Ex. 15:26) and a “rewarder of them that diligently seek Him.” (Heb. 11:6)

I must give God the glory for all the wonderful things He has done! For years I had… Continue

Reflection

Yesterday my Minister spoke to me about the sermon I missed in Church. I was so intrigued about what she was saying, she was kind enough to share her words with me via e-mail. As I read what she had written a message about Jesus' character was shining through. Jesus was truly representing the character of God and we should be truly representing the character of Jesus, but do we. Do we really take our commitment as Christians as serious as we think. My minister finished her sermon with the poem… Continue

Grudge and Sludge

From My Perspective - - -

There is a wide range of potential and possibility in terms of human behavior. In practical understanding, we have all experienced events that have made us very happy as well as those that have brought great sadness. For instance, Marriage is usually a time of great joy and happiness whereas Divorce is a time of considerable sadness, hurt and bitter exchanges. Max Lucado writes in

his book – The Applause of Heaven, “…Unfaithfulness is wrong. Revenge… Continue

Financial Frenzy

From My Perspective - - -

The financial news of the past few days has not been positive for many. Large Companies being absorbed by others; Brokerage houses Bankrupt; Insurance Company receiving an 85 Billion Dollar Government infusion of cash; Housing Markets in disarray and being essentially taken over by the Government; etc. Someone either wisely or caustically asked: Who’s Going To Bail Out The Government?

There is also a crisis in our Government. Polls indicate… Continue

In Every Teardrop

In every teardrop, God's rainbow of promise shines through.

He holds our tears in a bottle,

and our tears will reap joy;

For all God's promises have His ' yea' and ' amen' in them;

He has given us His Spirit as a guarantee.

In God's right hand; He lovingly holds us.

In His left hand; the bottle of tears is held.

The Lord will never leave us nor forsake us.

He has not forgotten, ~ ONE ~ promise!

PERSECUTION

"Blessed are those who persecuted because of righteousness , for their is the kingdom of heaven. Blessed are you when people insult you , persecute you and falsely say all kinds of evil against you because of me. Rejoice and be glad , because great is your reward in heaven , for in the same way they persecuted the prophets who were before me."

Interruptions

From My Perspective - - - -

In the ebb and flow of life, interruptions are a reality we all experience. No one is ever adequately prepared for the interruptions – they just occur. We might call these the unplanned encounters in life. In our lifetime, many of us can remember some of the major interruptions (and unplanned encounters) that have occurred – Pearl Harbor in 1941; World Trade Center in 2001; Assassinations – John F. Kennedy in 1963; Martin Luther King in 1968; Robert F.… Continue

Wings Of God

4He will cover you with his feathers, and under his wings you will find refuge; His faithfulness will be your shield and rampart.

Psalms 91:4

Me to You

I remember the story my Mom has told many times and too many people. The time Meghan ran away and she was only five years old. Now to my knowledge this never happened. The story goes like this. I was five years old and I was in trouble with my Mom who sent me to my room. I was so mad at her that I decided to escape the… Continue

Service Of The Heart

5There are different kinds of service, but the same Lord.

1 Corinthians 12:5

Me to You

At the beginning of this week I read this obituary that had been posted on my bulletin board for awhile now. Thinking nothing of it I took it off the board and began to read. I was shocked. I was thinking of an obituary, you no, the ones that are in the paper that read about someone who has just passed away. It gives you dates and such. Well this “obituary” was not that at all. I… Continue

Gods Works

23Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for men

Colossians 3:23

Me to You.

Today I cleaned my office and re- arranged things. I am a clean nut so this happens often. As I was cleaning I found a poem that was shoved under the desk. The paper was crumpled up and as I could see it had been there for a long time, but after unfolding it I found a beautiful poem. I was in awe. God defiantly puts things in our paths to find when He… Continue

What Not To Wear

25"Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or drink; or about your body, what you will wear. Is not life more important than food, and the body more important than clothes?

Matthew 6:25

Me To You

Have you ever sat in church and wondered to yourself what people think when they wake up and get dressed for church? You wonder maybe if they dress like this to church then what do they dress like every other day? Really does it matter? Does it… Continue

1 Corinthians 12:12

As much as I don’t want to admit this to you all, I have too. I have a Myspace and a Facebook. Now for those of you that don’t know what they are I will explain. They are networks that you can sign up for and connect with people thru the internet. You can post blogs, make comments, show pictures and much… Continue

Is Life A Box Of Chocolates?

3His divine power has given us everything we need for life and godliness through our knowledge of him who called us by his own glory and goodness.

2 Peter 1:3

Me to You.

I love the saying, “Life is like a box of chocolates, you never no what your going to get.” This week as I was walking through the internet I saw an advertisement on one of the many banners that is posted every where and it was for a church and they were using this famous title. I have been struggling… Continue
