“Sticks and stones may break my bones but words will never hurt me” Many of us have heard this phrase before but have you ever notice that it’s easier to remember the hurtful things said to you than the good ones? Truth be told, words are very powerful and if used the wrong way, can hurt you. God tells us in His word that “death and life are in the power of the tongue: and they that love it shall eat the fruit thereof” (Proverbs 18:21). In other words, you will eat what you speak; the outcome of your future is a byproduct of what you speak whether good or bad. Based upon scripture, your words can do two things for you: curse you or bless you; however, I will focus on how we as Christian curse ourselves (speaking negatively and...

So in everything, do to others what you would have them do to you, for this sums up the Law and the Prophets (Matthew 7:12). The bible verse above encourages us to do unto others as you would have done unto you. In today’s society, this would be the same as saying: treat others the way you want to be treated. As Christians, I believe we can refer to the life of Jesus as a guide on how we’re to treat others. Jesus Life as a Guide on How to Treat Others When Jesus began His ministry on earth, He didn’t come saying, “I am God, serve me and do as I say.” When Christ came, one of the many things He showed His disciples (including you and I) was how we’re to treat others. He forgave sins and past mistakes, showed mercy and grace to those...

I am finding myself looking at the heavens a lot more these days. I am trying to watch and enjoy as many sunrises and sunsets as I can, and I am letting their beauty fill my soul with happiness. I love seeing God paint the heavens with glorious reds, purples, pinks, oranges, and golds. I love gazing with wonder at these ever-changing masterpieces. Every sunrise feels like God is welcoming us to a new day full of wonder and delight. Every sunset feels like God is kissing us goodnight and wishing us sweet dreams. Every time I look at them too I feel God’s peace and joy, and I know that I am loved by the greatest love imaginable. Looking at the heavens helps me to feel the Heaven inside myself too. When I gaze at the sky and witness...

Make a Right onto ### Blvd. Keep straight and go through the Green Light, which is Jesus Christ. There, you must turn onto the ###, which is over troubled water. When you get off the bridge, make a Right turn and Keep Straight. You are on the ###-Heaven-bound. Then exit off onto ###. From there, make a Right turn on ###. Keep Straight and then make another Right on ###. As you go on your way, Yield Not to the traffic on ###. Also, avoid ### because it is a DEAD END. Pass up ###, and ###. Also, pass ###, ###, and ###. However, you have to go down ###, ### and ###. But that's all right, because ### is straight ahead! AMEN!

Let’s face it; one of the most devastating things a person can experience is getting laid off from work or being turned down for numerous positions due to business slowing or shutting down. Today, while applying for jobs, I begin to feel hopeless, somewhat depressed and a desire to give up. There’s nothing worse than being told, “We’re not hiring” or “we’ll contact you if we’re interested” leaving you no hope of employment. Glory be to God, there’s encouragement for those dealing with unemployment depression and stress. Although you may have lost your job and feel like giving up, though you may feel scared, I want to encourage you and let you know that you’re not alone; that your help comes from the Lord. However, in order for you to...

The following article was written by ###. I pray it blesses you in Jesus name. Why am I discouraged? Why is my heart so sad? I will put my hope in God! I will praise him again— my Savior and my God! (Psalm 43:5) Depression can be so painful and deep- deep to the bone marrow of your soul hurting the physical and spiritual aspect of our lives. But Jesus came that we might have life and have it more abundantly (John 10:10). My brother/sister let us rise up from our ashes. I know it hurts so bad, I know you do not even want to eat or feel like eating or vice versa. Yes you don’t feel like smiling, bathing or even praying and praising. Yes, I don’t know what you are going through. But Jesus knows it all, and it is not His will that you...

Trusting God When the Door Seem to Be Closing With so much happening in the world today – the recession, job lost, and etc it seems like all the doors close right in front of our faces. It seems like there’s no way out of the situation we’re in. We pray and pray (day and night) asking God to open up the windows of opportunity for us, but what do you do when all the doors seem to be closed. There’s encouragement for you today. When One Door Closes, Another One Opens There are times when we pray and ask God for things. “God bless me with a job; give me that promotion at work; help me to pay my bills and etc”. We ask God for a lot of things. However, we never ask God to open doors He wants to be open and shut doors He wants to be...
