Many see God as harsh and unforgiving. It's not until we accept Jesus as our Savior and study the Bible that we see God for who He is, Almighty, Holy, and Loving. We, His creation, have fallen from HIS Holiness into sin, and God hates sin because it's destined for hell, separating us from Him … Continue reading Epitome of Love!
Victory in Grace
Most Christians don't realize the victory they have in God's grace. When we accept Jesus as our Savior, He is ALL we need!

He's our healer, counselor, caretaker, provider, leader, and friend for … Continue reading Victory in Grace
We Need Joy and Peace!
It's easier to walk by sight than by faith. We see this world's raging destruction, and wonder if God can get us through our own trials. But He WILL when we put our hope and faith in Him and TRUST Him with all of our hearts. When we know Jesus as our Savior and are … Continue reading We Need Joy and Peace!
Our Only Hope of Salvation!
The tragedies of the Texas floods have caused many to turn from believing in God. But Jesus said bad things would happen in these last days because Satan is destroying as much as he can in the time he has left. We must trust God to guide us through these difficult times, not judge or … Continue reading Our Only Hope of Salvation!
Pointing Fingers
Some people suffer because of their own bad decisions. They need help to get out of their mess, but they don't need us pointing fingers and reminding them how they got there; there's a time and place for everything. As Christians, we want to be an extension of Christ's hands and feet to help them … Continue reading Pointing Fingers
In His Arms!
When tragedy strikes, we all ask why. We know the devil is raging, trying to destroy as many as he can in the time he has left, but why would God allow him to hurt His own children? Most of us won't know why until we get to Heaven, but we can rest in God … Continue reading In His Arms!
Faith, One Day at a Time!
The world is becoming a place of torment as tragedies, catastrophes, and political upheavals intensify. We don't know who to trust, and watching others suffer weighs heavily on us. But God sees everything and will soon bring it all to an end. We continue to pray for those who are hurting and share His love … Continue reading Faith, One Day at a Time!
The Heavy Load!
Many of us carry a steady load of burdens. We don't give them to God because we try to be self-efficient in this modern world. But as Christians, we must remember that Almighty God is our Lord, which means He loves us and WANTS to take care of us because we are no match for … Continue reading The Heavy Load!
When Joy Gives us Strength!
No one escapes problems in this dark, troubled world. Christians are no exception, as Jesus said we would suffer simply because we ARE Christians. Yet, we don't have to be downtrodden; we can achieve victory when our faith is in Jesus, who fights our battles for us. We are filled with hope when we know … Continue reading When Joy Gives us Strength!
Our Greatest Testimony!
Not all Christians are called to be pastors or missionaries. But we are all called to be Christ's disciples, and our mission field begins when we rise each morning. We represent Jesus wherever we go throughout the day; whatever we do and say reflects God in us. When we treat others as He would treat … Continue reading Our Greatest Testimony!
One Way to See God!
The Bible has been a controversial source of study for centuries. This has resulted in diverse doctrines within Christianity and the emergence of various cults. However, there is only one Truth within its pages, and to learn it, we must seek God for His Spirit to teach us (John 14:26). It's impossible to know or … Continue reading One Way to See God!
Blessing Canada Day!
Today is special for Canadians as we celebrate our country's independence. But it's not all joy when we realize the freedoms and integrity we lost to become part of the modern world. There's not much we can do to change things back, but as Christians, we CAN pray. Daniel 2:21 says that God removes kings … Continue reading Blessing Canada Day!
A Merry Heart Gives Life!
This evil world weighs us down with defeat, but God's Truth brings victory and a merry heart. As Christians, we know that Jesus is our only hope and that He gave us His Word, the Bible, to study and know the Truth. He warns about these evil days and how they will end, and promises … Continue reading A Merry Heart Gives Life!
Wishing and Hoping!
Wishing and hoping are both dreams that come from the heart, yet they are very different. A wish is an emotional desire that is not easily attainable and unlikely to happen. A hope, on the other hand, is an expectation based on faith and trust that allows us to look forward to it happening. When … Continue reading Wishing and Hoping!
Hate and Love!
New Age Christianity emphasizes God's love and blessings, allowing us to live as we choose without feeling guilty. It doesn't want to talk about sin or repentance, obedience or dishonor—only what appeases our emotions. But real Christianity teaches us that God hates sin and that we are sinners, separated from Him because of our sin. … Continue reading Hate and Love!
Doing the Impossible!
As Christians, when bad things happen to us, we're not surprised because Jesus said we'd have problems. Sometimes we cause them ourselves; other times it's a result of living in this corrupt world. But we can overcome all of them when we give them to God and trust Him to bring us through them. Despite … Continue reading Doing the Impossible!
What We Deserve!
Not one of us deserves the privilege of going to Heaven. We don't even qualify to talk to God because He is Holy and we are laden with sin, and would be struck down if we came near Him because of our sin. But God's love for us has never changed, and He made a … Continue reading What We Deserve!
Trust Brings Peace!
Trusting God to get us through our problems brings peace in the midst of stress and chaos. He sees the big picture and even allows some situations to teach us a lesson or guide us in a particular direction. Sometimes, the answers take longer than we planned. But we can be at peace despite our … Continue reading Trust Brings Peace!
Take a Deep Breath!
Many of us pray about our problems, but never really give them to God. We tell Him about them, then hold onto them and worry as we anticipate the worst. We must learn to give Him our problems and then WAIT on Him for the answer. Jesus told us that whatever we ask in prayer … Continue reading Take a Deep Breath!
How We View the Day!
The way we view each new day determines our happiness. If we wake up feeling discouraged and defeated from yesterday's burdens, then today will be stressful. But if we see today as a new creation from God, given to us to live and experience His blessings, then our attitude and successes will be good. Our … Continue reading How We View the Day!
