Let us Share the Cure

Emptiness...
Her eyes reflect the pain that she feels-the emptiness that haunts her. Her brightly colored hair, piercings, and tattoos are her non-verbal way of crying out "notice me". She is so young, and yet she already looks so used. She has tried everything she could think of to fill that gaping hole in her heart. But all the parties, and sexual immorality only left her feeling even emptier and more worthless.
If only she knew that she is the daughter of a king or better said, the daughter of The King. If she only realized that she is loved for who she is and not for how well she can please lusting men. If only she realized that she is valuable. So valuable that the Lord of the universe came to this world to give his life in order that she may be free.
My friends, this world is filled with empty people. While they may have everything this world has to offer, something is missing without Jesus. Oh that we may take out callig seriously. May we go tell a perishing world that they are loved, cherished, valuable. May we introduce spiritually starving souls to the Living Water and Bread of Life.
Emptiness...
Let's share the cure!

Great Things

Let's be honest. I don't think there is anybody that does not desire to accomplish great things. A lot of us want to impact the world in mighty ways; yes we want to bring about change that is noticeable. There is nothing wrong with wanting to do great things, but I do believe that we don't fully understand what is "great" in God's eyes. Working at the nursing home has taught me that some of the greatest things in life are little things in the world's eyes. The world does not consider holding a dejected man's hand, or looking at a picture book with a 95 year old woman as "great" things, but I can assure you that it means a great deal to the individual. A cheerful smile, an extra measure of patience, and the willingness to serve regardless of gain are great things my friend. Too often we sit around waiting for some great opportunity to work for God, missing opportunities to do little things that have great effects. Let us not miss opportunities...

May The Year 2016 Be Different

A new year has begun Lord, and I want this year to be the best one I have had yet. I am not asking for earthly wealth, and am not seeking ease, but Lord I pray that this year will be different. May this year be the year that I draw closer to You than I have ever before. May this be the year where I learn to trust You with every aspect of my life. May this year be the year where I reach more souls, and touch more lives.  Lord, I have learned from personal experience that I can do NOTHING in my own strength. All my righteousness is as filthy rags, but I also KNOW that YOU can and long to cover me with YOUR righteousness.  Lord, I know that Your ways are so much higher than my own, and it is my prayer that I may trust Your more this year than I have ever before. Lord, I pray that this year will be the year where my heart is truly broken for that which breaks Yours, and that my eyes may ever be open to see a world in need. May I not be afraid or ashamed to stand up for Y...

True Peace

"It is the love of self that destroys our peace. While self is alive, we stand ready continually to guard it from mortification and insult; but when self is dead, and our life hid with Christ in God, we shall not take neglects or slights to heart. We shall be deaf to reproach, and blind to scorn and insult." -The Signs of the Times (December 27, 1905) What a powerful quote, and oh what great implications it has for our lives. It took being in a relationship to show me just how much I love "self". When self sits on the throne, life is a chaotic mess because you spend all your time and energy trying to keep "self" from being hurt or slighted. Every little hurtful word is enough for your whole kingdom to crumble. Oh what a sad life to live! Yet how often do we find ourselves giving up our peace and happiness in order to protect the very thing that is on a mission to destroy us... The love of self not only destroys peace, but it also destroys relationshi...
