Struggles Make Us Stronger

As I glanced threw the posts on this site, I saw so many request for prayer and insite. I began to think about just how awesome our God really is. We bring him our life's problems, like a child brings a broken toy to their parent. God doesn't need super glue or masking tape. He takes the broken mess and makes it new again. He doesnt need to rush out to Walmart to get a new one. He doesn't wave a magic wand. He just speaks and all is well. We come to Him dirty and broken. He dips us in The…

Love and Natural Order

Gods' love for mankind is revealed throughout the universe through the natural order of His creation, as well as in His own Word (the Bible). The natural laws everywhere around us exist because the universe has a Creator who is logical and has (since the beginning) imposed order on His universe. Even after the fall of man, in Genesis and up through today, God still makes order out of much of the disruption, chaos, and disorder as a result from sin. We not only have… Continue

Greatest Moment of my Life

In June of 1993 I gave birth to a beautiful little girl. The delivery was difficult and because she was backwards I had to have a C-Section. Complications arose and I had to be completely sedated. I vaguely remember waking up, I was strapped down, very disoriented, afraid, and in severe pain. However, the only thought in my head was "Where is my Baby?". I could see the lights over my head as they rolled me from the delivery room to the recovery room, I was crying very hard and still hadn't seen… Continue

LOVE BEYOND DEATH

The love of God is beyond all comprehension. Gods Love for YOU began before you were born. Before you were conceived.

It doesn't matter if you were conceived out of rape, or an accident, or by Invetro, God loves you and knew you before He even created the world you live in.

The life and death of His Son, Jesus Christ, is directly linked to the love God has for You. This…

You're All That I Long

This time with You Father, is all that I long.

sometimes loving others, things seem to go wrong.

But when I am with You, You show me the way,

You give me the strength to go one more day.

These moments with You restore me with Your genuine love,

and again I am able to accept those whom yell, push, and shove. …

Love and Obedience

I hope that you will look with me at a short study of the word obedience, maybe a little closer than ever, depending on how much some have studied. Those of you that know me, know that I believe the bible teaches us that love is the most important thing to God. Some would argue that obedience is more important because,... "if you love God, you will obey Him",... and on the latter,... I do agree. I have used Gods' teachings concerning love to argue the case for it's… Continue

A Mystery

What Christ has done in me is a mystery

He is done yet I’ve only began to see

I found a peace I thought did not exist

A constant companion within my midst

A love within not of my own

A connection now unto the throne

Joy in measure beyond compare

A comfort now… Continue

Open Heart Surgery

THE OPEN HEART SURGERY Series is a group of stories about people who have fallen through the crack, some would say. People, who, for one reason or another, have dropped out of society, hidden away. Some have gotten to that point on their own, while others have been pushed there by the circumstances of an evil world. But I believe The Lord wants us to look at them, listen to them, find them, and… Continue

Loves Hopes Are Fadeless

Loves' hopes are fadeless under all circumstances, and it endures everything [without weakening].

Hopeth all things, is the KJV of 1 Cor 13:7 for the study we will look at today.

This word Hopeth, all by itself, was "elPIS" in the original text and simply meant to desire of some good with the expectation of obtaining it.

Generally. Spoken especially of those who experience the hope of salvation through Christ, eternal life, and blessedness. Of a hope in or on… Continue

Love Believes The Best In Everyone

Love believes the best of everyone. Love is ever ready to believe the best of every person.

Too often we (I'm still just talking about those whom are in Christ) are drawn to hear the worst about someone.

In this area of our study, I think we should consider how often we find ourselves focused, or concerned, or even amused by negative things we here about those we are suppose to love, and how wrong it is.

Remember, God looks at the heart… Continue

Love and Science

Love And Science

The Lord will not let me move on from this study of Love. By now you can see, it really turns out to be a picture of God, Himself.

When I teach about Love sometimes and say that, "God 'Is' love", I believe most people think of a spiritual power out there that thinks a whole lot about us and wants us to return the favor to Him and to each other.

Well, He is like that, but when the bible says that God "Is" Love, that is what He actually… Continue

Cell Block 316

Its not those bars that hold her prisoner,

Its something stronger deep within her.

Something that was always there,

confusion was what she'd declare.

But now with so much looking back,

confusion couldn't be the tack.

Though justified, she was always mean,

still… Continue

Love Bears Up Under Anything

Love bears up under anything and everything that comes. Bears up in spite of all things evil, and is not overcome. This is the idea of "beareth." Love bears up against the tide of evil, as the rock against the waves.

When a man and woman marry, they vow to love each other "in sickness and in health, for richer or poorer, for better or worse." This type of love is characteristic of the love described in I Corinthians 13. This kind of love, we have learned in our other… Continue

Softer Than Air

Softer Than Air

Eight hours now without a break,

don't they know that her feet ache.

Running late to pick up the kids,

their Dads is in jail for selling lids.

I love you the words were softer than air,

Startled she turns but no one is there.

Sneak past the landlord one time again,

delaying her rent until the weekend.

Need to make dinner but the cupboard is bare,

praying to someone that just doesn't… Continue

Love Doesn't Rejoice At Injustice

LOVE DOES'NT REJOICE AT INJUSTICE

3 stars | 5 comments | December 11, 2008 | 351 reads

Love does not rejoice at injustice and unrighteousness, but rejoices when right and truth prevail.

I heard someone (a company I had been to) had recently been robbed. I found myself feeling kinda glad because of the way I had been treated by them in the past. This initial feeling quickly turned into GUILT which results in conflict between the Holy Spirit and the still… Continue
