My friend has been busy for the past several weeks getting his house ready for sale. The decision to move out of the city and relocate to another region came from a number of divine sources. He and his family are now in a place of having to totally trust God to lead the way and open doors...
I rang a friend the one day after getting prompted by the Lord to ring her during my private prayer time. I kept getting this prompting although it had nothing to do with what I was praying about so I decided to stop and ring her.
My first words to her was "can I help you? what is happening...
Dear Anna, I find it hard to believe you’re gone. You were like a mother to me, with your lasagna, cat I played with, and my drawings which you stuck on your fridge. I’ll never forget all the mischief I did. The last time I say you, you could no longer remember my name. … <a...

Not lording it over those entrusted to you, but being examples to the flock. – 1 Peter 5:3
In the minds of some modern Christians the idea of the pastor being someone who walks on a level of godliness above others is really not believed. Many believers think now that they fail just as much as...
And teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age. – Matthew 28:20
The early Apostles heard the command of Jesus and it was very clear to them what they were to do. These men followed Jesus for 3 years prior being taught of him...
Do not repay evil with evil or insult with insult. On the contrary, repay evil with blessing. – 1 Peter 3:9
A phrase that is popular in modern evangelical circles is “What would Jesus do.” It has become a mantra for some people as a commitment to follow our Lord in his example. Of course this is...
There is only one Lawgiver and Judge, the one who is able to save and destroy. But you—who are you to judge your neighbor? – James 4:12
When we judge others in the body of Christ we are taking the place of God and thinking of ourselves more highly then we ought to. Our judgements are always...
My enemies say of me in malice, “When will he die and his name perish?” – Psalm 41:5

Church splits, divisions, gossiping and all kinds of fleshly problems is something we can think is normal in the Church life. Who has not been involved in a...
So the last week or so have been a little rattling for me. Tonight, I was feeling a little down about things. I'm not talking completely depressed or anything but I could be better. I think we all have these days. Now that the summer is here, my kids are out of school which means, due to work...

The last few days have not been my greatest. I surely am not at my peak. I didn't feel close to the Lord at all. I looked for encouragement and inspiration but nothing was working. I felt lost in so many ways. Too many to count as it were. So, tonight I went to the store just to browse and...
The topic of my last article was on perseverance.
When I wrote it, I had no idea that I was about to enter an extremely tough time in my life.
Since that article nearly three weeks ago, things have taken a difficult turn.
My mother, who lost the use of her right leg two years, has now lost the...
One of the things I would like to deny about myself (but can’t) is that I have a tendency to bail on things.
When someone raises their voice to me, I’m ready to walk away.
