Walking in a Fog
Do you ever feel like you brain just doesn’t work? Like you are walking in a fog? Sometimes life can be a little overwhelming. Although we may have days like that, we can be confident that the Lord knows exactly where we are. Not only does he know where we are but he is in…

The Domino Effect
The actions of man tell a story about their lives. There are two ways of looking at the lives of men. There is the Worldly view and the Spiritual view. The Worldly view puts a mark on man that over shadows their life. Man falls and sins. The world puts their brand on a man…

Treat Others the way you want to be Treated
How would I want to be treated if that was Me? The question should be answered with Matthew 7:12,”Therefore all things whatsoever ye would that men should do to you, do ye even so to them: for this is the law and the prophets.” It is quite simple, if we put ourselves in someone else’s…

Contentment
We sometimes compare how we look, or what kind of house we live in, or what kind of car we drive, etc. Comparing is where we become discontent. Any kind of discontentment leads to other areas in our life. If we dwell there for any amount of time if will affect us spiritually. Our goal…

Be Yourself

While we need to examine ourselves for those things that need to…
