I know it is hard to believe at times, but God does love you. I am sure you will ask where is the proof? Just need to mention that God sent His only Son to die for your sins so that you have a chance to spend eternal life with both God and Jesus. I […]

Loving God
I find it amazing that we act like we know what love is, but I am not honestly sure we do. We want God to show us that He loves us, but hasn’t He already done that? God sent His son to die for our sins so that we may have a chance to live […]
Spiritual Battles
I have been reading a devotional by Rick Warren about spiritual warfare. It is an interesting read and if you get the chance I highly recommend that you take the 37 or so days to read and understand what is being said. It does not matter if you believe it or not, but each of […]
Jealousy
My wife told me about incident that happened to her the other day. She was walking into the building where she works apparently looking down. As she was opening the door, another person was also doing the same on the same door. This startled her and she looked up and said well hello or something […]
The World Does Not Revolve Around You
Despite what your parents and others have told you, the world does not revolve around you. That last time I looked, the world revolves around the center of mass within our solar system. Why is this so important? When we think we are the most important thing in the universe, then we will turn away […]
Why people hate?
Why do people hate so much? I am honestly not sure. I know that people seem to hate Christians more and the Bible even mentions this will happen. Matthew 10:22 New International Version (NIV) 22 You will be hated by everyone because of me, but the one who stands firm to the end will be saved. […]
Love
What is love? I have touched on this subject in the past, so lets start off with how the Bible describes love. 1 Corinthians 13:4-8New International Version (NIV) 4 Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. 5 It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, […]
Old habits
I was raised as a Christian until about the 5th or 6th grade and then something happened in my life at a church with an elder. No it was nothing abusive/sexual, but it had a profound impact on my life. Now I could continue to blame that person for what happened, but I am an […]
Being Perfect
Does God expect us to be perfect? The answer is yes. Matthew 5:48 New International Version (NIV) 48 Be perfect, therefore, as your heavenly Father is perfect. Now if you read only that passage, you would think that there is no way I can be perfect. Lets face it, we are not perfect and have not […]
Spending time with the wife
We went to Vegas about a week ago to see George Strait. It was good for us to get away and for it to be just us. It gave us a chance to reconnect. For the last 22 years, we have essentially been with family almost everyday and night. Now, anyone who knows me, knows […]
