I've often heard it said that God doesn't "punish" people. But is that really true? And if it is - does that mean we shouldn't expect consequences for our poor choices? As a parent - I know that I must step in and correct my children's behavior when necessary to help them learn not to … Continue reading Loving discipline

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)

Sometimes it may seem that every day brings with it something new to complain about. The weather, a … Continue reading Keep your head up
Don’t let the ship sail
During the days of Noah - evil was growing in the world. When the world began, it didn't start that way. But as each generation passed, and people grew further and further away from God, sin grew more rampant. And although each generation had people that walked in close fellowship with The Lord and lived … Continue reading Don’t let the ship sail
Change is a process
Sometimes people think they need to "get good" before they give their life to Christ. They may be living a life full of choices they know aren't right - and they mistakenly think they need to clean themselves up before they can turn to Jesus. Others may expect that the moment they become a Christian … Continue reading Change is a process
