Live for Today
Many of us look beyond today and focus on a day up ahead. We miss the reality that TODAY is the ONLY day we have because there is NO promise for a tomorrow—not in this world, anyway.

Religious Enemies
There are times, as Christians, when we get angry with one of our brothers or sisters.

We are saved but not perfect, so let's accept that fact and replace anger with mercy and … Continue reading Religious Enemies
Waiting With Confidence
There have never been as many so-called Christians in the world as today. However, few know Jesus and assume that God has changed, so they've modified His Word to suit their desires.

Be the Light!

It’s Who We Know
We've all heard the expression, "It's not what you know; it's who you know," and this is so true for Christians. We hear daily reports of world situations that discourage many people and fill them with anxiety and fear.

It’s Who We Are!
Some people think that becoming Christian means giving up the good things in life and submitting to religious rules. However, this isn't Christianity; it's religion.

The Joy of Singing
When we become Christians, Jesus forgives us for all of our sins and becomes our Savior and our Lord.

Joy and Strength
Small children depend on their parents and rest in their love and protection. They don't focus on the negative and aren't afraid of the obvious.

Learning to Trust
We are often reminded to trust the Lord and not let our own understanding of a situation bring us to despair. But it's hard to do when we think we know what we want and need. We need to learn to trust Him and give Him praise and thanks because His answer is the only … Continue reading Learning to Trust
The Calm and Peace of White
We have been given another day to live in this world despite what's happening around us. For some of us, today has come with calm and graceful flakes of white snow, and it reminds us of the pureness of Jesus and how much He loves us. We see how the white comes down and covers … Continue reading The Calm and Peace of White
Happy New Year!
Today is the beginning of a new year! As Christians, God will not only bless us, but He'll help us be a blessing and share His love and grace with those who don't know Jesus.

Don’t Look Back
As we close out this year, many of us will reflect on memories of despair, hurt, sorrow, and anger from issues this past year has caused.

This world is spiraling into the hour of God's judgment—and it's almost here! This is why it's so crucial that we seek God and be His testimony … Continue reading His Testimony
The Path That Leads us Home
Many "Christians" believe that God is only about love and blesses whatever they do in life as long as they're happy. And sadly, because they believe this lie instead of the truth, they'll face Jesus as Judge one day. To be a Christian means that when we accept Christ Jesus as our Savior, we turn … Continue reading The Path That Leads us Home
Honey or Vinegar
Our job as Christians isn't to bring on world peace; it's to shine as lights of hope in the darkness so others can see the love and peace of God in us. But we can't do that if we're easily provoked into heated arguments over Scripture or self-driven to tell someone about Jesus who doesn't … Continue reading Honey or Vinegar
