My desire is to share my daily journey through the Word of God so that others can be inspired and encouraged to be all in for Jesus!
God takes me so many places as I read and study His Word, and I love to write about it. Maybe someone will read this and get their own message from God. Or maybe following my journey will give them a desire to start a journey of their own. I just hope that God will be glorified and that He will always be the main contributor to this blog!
God loves you - and he wants to have a one-on-one relationship with you! That is why he sent Jesus to bridge the gap between you and Him by way of the cross. All you have to do is:
Admit your a sinner. (Romans 3:23)
Recognize that the penalty for sin is death. (Romans 6:23)
Know that God loves you, so Jesus died in your place. (Romans 5:8)
Understand that nothing you can do on your own will ever be enough. (Ephesians 2:8)
Confess with your mouth and believe in your heart that Jesus is Lord! (Romans 10:9)
Celebrate the new you! (2 Corinthians 5:17)

What is your first response when you’re in trouble? I'll admit mine is usually to panic! I start trying to figure out how I can get out of the mess I’m in.

The only payment God will accept
When the prophet Isaiah came on the scene with a message from God, the Israelites had really blown it. They had rebelled against God despite all that He had done for them. No matter how much trouble they had gotten themselves into because of their rebellion, they stubbornly continued in it. (Read Isaiah 1:1-20) They … Continue reading The only payment God will accept
We need the Word of God!
The Christian life cannot be lived apart from the Word of God. Jesus knew and trusted the Word of God, and if we want to live as Christ-followers, we must do the same. As a young boy, Jesus sat among the teachers to hear the Word of God. (Luke 2:42-52) In the synagogue, He read aloud … Continue reading We need the Word of God!
Don’t be a “goat”!
Bookshelves, podcasts, social media feeds and sadly even many church pulpits are all about motivating people to live their best lives now. The main message? Seek personal success and happiness above all else. And in the Christian arena, it is packaged up as the very thing God wants for you. But is that true? Is … Continue reading Don’t be a “goat”!
