What We See

As I’m sitting here healing from my surgery, I could not help wondering about my eyes and what I am seeing. What do I mean? Well, honestly I’ve been watching a lot of anime lately while resting up. It got to the point where I was thinking, “you should pick up your Bible, spend someContinue reading “What We See”

The Lord’s Prayer

Do not be like them, for your Father knows what you need before you ask him. “This, then, is how you should pray: “ ‘Our Father in heaven, hallowed be your name, your kingdom come, your will be done, on earth as it is in heaven. Give us today our daily bread. And forgive us ourContinue reading “The Lord’s Prayer”

To Become Wise

You know, when I was younger I used to think that to be wise meant you had all the knowledge in the world. But, wisdom and knowledge are two different things. Knowledge is just knowing; it is information learned. But wisdom is utilizing that knowledge in a profound way. For example, knowledge is knowing howContinue reading “To Become Wise”

To Be Genuine

This past Sunday at church, my pastor touched on a subject that really resonates with me. The subject? Deception.

ThingsContinue reading “To Be Genuine”

To Fail in Commitment

Commit to the Lord whatever you do, and he will establish your plans. Proverbs 16:3 Can I be honest with you? There are times when I say I’m doing something for the Lord, when I’m really not. Sometimes I do things for myself under the impression that I’m doing it for the Lord. To tellContinue reading “To Fail in Commitment”

A Little Reminder

When you think about yourself, what do you think about? Is it the good and righteous things you are in Christ? Is it the things that other people see in you? Or is it the things you keep hidden? Is it the things you feel guilty about that lead you to believe you’re no good?Continue reading “A Little Reminder”

To Guard Your Heart

Above all else, guard your heart, for everything you do flows from it. Proverbs 4:23 Everything we do flows from our hearts. How can that be? Our hearts are the perfect epitome for our feelings. To be more specific, our feelings of love and desire. Our feelings of love and desire dictate our lives. Because,Continue reading “To Guard Your Heart”
