Why do Christians say non-Christians are lost? It's because God created us, and our hearts are searching for Him in this corrupt world, even if we don't know it. Many think He's in world religions; others follow false doctrines. It's not until we accept Jesus as our Savior that our sins are forgiven and our … Continue reading Who are the Lost?

The Lord Who Heals Us
Physical healing is NOT an automatic perk to salvation. Jesus paid for our sins on the cross and redeemed our souls to God, but we still live in a corrupt world plagued with sickness. Jesus healed many when He was here and told us to pray for the sick. God hears and answers the prayers … Continue reading The Lord Who Heals Us
Everything We Need
Sometimes, unexpected things happen that we aren't prepared for, and we need more money, time, or help to get through them. But God promises to give us everything we need when we put our faith and trust in Him. So when we need something, let's ask the Lord, expect His help, and give Him all … Continue reading Everything We Need
Rejoicing in Truth
As Christians, we don't conform to this world or its celebrations because we have been transformed into the body of Christ. He is our celebration, and we rejoice in Him! He's given us eternal life and the promise of His Lordship over us while we're on this earth. And this begins for each of us … Continue reading Rejoicing in Truth
A Light in the Storm
We make choices in life. We choose to be Christian because we know this corrupt world is heading into destruction, and following Jesus is the only way to Heaven! We study the Bible, and His Light keeps us on the right path and shines brightly for others to see. We are God's children, and we … Continue reading A Light in the Storm
Humility and Shame
Many Christians believe that since Jesus pardoned their sins at the cross, any sins committed after that won't matter because they're going to Heaven anyway. However, these sins WILL humble and shame us when we stand before Jesus, and they WILL keep us from some rewards God has for us. We don't confess to the … Continue reading Humility and Shame
A Satisfied Customer
The best advertising is word-of-mouth! Commercials get our interest, but it's often the personal review of a satisfied customer that convinces us to try it. Likewise, there are many "Christian" doctrines and churches, but it's our personal testimonies that will draw people to the Truth. When they see we are joyful, give God thanks in … Continue reading A Satisfied Customer
Grace is All We Need
Grace is getting something we don't deserve. We accepted Jesus as Savior because God's grace drew us to Him. His grace pardoned our sins, cleansed our hearts, and filled us with His Spirit. We're now part of God's Kingdom where there's no sin or sickness, and though we won't experience the fullness of His grace … Continue reading Grace is All We Need
A Clear Vision
Sometimes, we can't see through a bad situation; our focus is wrong, our vision is blurred, and the effects are scary. But when we can withdraw from it and give it to God, focus on His promise to take care of it, and trust Him, our vision will be clear. God is greater than all … Continue reading A Clear Vision
Love and Hate
Before we became Christian, we engaged in sin and thought it was good. But by God's grace, we found Jesus, got saved, and turned from our sins. Our job now is to share the gospel with those who don't know Jesus, show them kindness and mercy, and pray for their salvation (Acts 26:18). We don't … Continue reading Love and Hate
Being Accountable
False teachers are among us. They change God's Word to appeal to OUR desires, so we'll follow them instead of God! Those who've never committed to Jesus will follow Satan right into hell, and those who know Jesus will stand accountable to God one day for their actions. God does NOT change! His Word does … Continue reading Being Accountable
Arms of Love
Many of us sang "Jesus loves me" in Sunday School. It's simple, joyful, and full of Truth, and we all felt a special touch from Jesus as we bellowed out the words. Perhaps, if we sang it more often as adults, we would feel His arms wrapped around us, ensuring us of His amazing and … Continue reading Arms of Love
Living in A Strange Land
As Christians, we're strangers living in a foreign land. We're no longer part of this world's system as Jesus is now our Lord, and our priorities, thoughts, and desires are like His. This isn't our home anymore, but God watches over us, hears and answers our prayers, and guides us with His wisdom and strength. … Continue reading Living in A Strange Land
Forgiven, Not Perfect
Being Christian means our sins are forgiven, but we are not perfect. We live in a sinful world, and though God's Spirit lives in our hearts, sometimes we ignore His instruction and say or do things we regret. God is faithful and forgives us when we repent, but our actions still affect others. This is … Continue reading Forgiven, Not Perfect
We All Need a Friend
Sometimes, we all need a friend who will love, help, and correct us without condemning us because of our problems. Wordly friends love us conditionally and often leave us alone in our greatest time of need. But there is a Friend who will love us despite the situation, help as no other can, and never … Continue reading We All Need a Friend
Facing Fear
Many people suffer from fear. They appear heroic, but inside, they are trembling with absolute anxiety. As Christians, fear isn't part of our lives—our hope and faith are in Jesus, who defeated the one who thrives on our fear! God's Spirit lives in us, and it says in 1 John 4:4 that He is greater … Continue reading Facing Fear
A Calm Heart
Nothing in this world calms the heart like the peace of God! Many depend on drugs, alcohol, money, or fleshly desires to help them through their problems, but there's no peace, just temporary relief. But, when we give our problems to God and TRUST HIM with them, Jesus pours His peace upon us and calms … Continue reading A Calm Heart
Don’t Suffer Alone
Many Christians suffer through their problems alone. God is ready to help, but they won't ask Him because they either don't want to "bother" Him or assume He won't help. We must study the Bible to know God and fill up with His knowledge and wisdom. We are His children, and when problems come (big … Continue reading Don’t Suffer Alone
Grounded in Love
Today, any church that talks about God is called Christian. Desires and lifestyles are accepted above God's Truth, causing many to think they're Christians when they're not. To be Christian, we must repent of our sins, give our hearts to Jesus, and study the Bible so we can follow Him. When Christ dwells in our … Continue reading Grounded in Love
It’s Who We Know
The world can't give us peace in times of trouble because it's the cause of all of our problems. But Jesus can give us His peace beyond all imagination and understanding. When we know Him as our Savior, Jesus cleanses us from the weight of sin and gives us new hope in life. He gives … Continue reading It’s Who We Know
Be Happy
We CAN have problems and still be happy! The issues concern us; not being able to fix them bothers us, and knowing they could ruin us scares us. But when we give them to the Lord and TRUST Him to take care of them, we are happy because NOTHING is impossible to God, and ALL … Continue reading Be Happy
Happy Mother’s Day!
Raising children is a noble task for a woman, despite what most believe in this modern world. Motherhood is truly a great and honorable position. It's not easy at times, and we spend years teaching, admonishing, pleading with God, and shedding tears of sorrow. But God is faithful, and when we know and trust Him, … Continue reading Happy Mother’s Day!
The Proverbial Glass
We often view life as a proverbial glass of water, half full or half empty. We can focus on the negative things in life and glorify the world for them, OR we can look beyond our problems to the good things in our lives and give God all the glory. As Christians, our hope and … Continue reading The Proverbial Glass
The Toughest Battle
We get stressed when we can't get answers to our problems. As Christians, Jesus told us to give HIM our problems, and He'd take care of them—1 Peter 5:7. When we obey God, we'll have peace, and things around us will fall into place because God is faithful to His Word. Sometimes though, the toughest … Continue reading The Toughest Battle
The Big Change
It's acceptable today for Christians to dress, act, and speak as they did before they converted. But—this deception will keep them from Heaven! Why? Because if we really ARE saved, Jesus becomes our Savior AND Lord, and our hearts are changed. We no longer belong to this world: we belong to God. His Spirit lives … Continue reading The Big Change
Smile, God Loves You!
