True Love

Jesus, please seek me and stop my words if any glorification of the flesh is upon me.  I pray that you and you alone are glorified through my writing.  Thank you Father.  You are the Living God and your Word is the Living Word.  To you be all the Glory, thank you Jesus, our Heart of Hearts and our Mind of Minds.  I love you too.

Trials and Tribulations – Count it all Joy

James 1:12
“Blessed is the man who perseveres under trial, because when he has
stood the test, he will receive the crown of life that God has promised
to those who love him.” James 1:12

My Confession

In order to have a clean heart before the Lord, I feel obligated to confess myself as a sinner as to not be a hypocrite.  The drive behind my postings utilize the Word of God and I do not feel right speaking on behalf of the Lord without confessing.

I do not claim to be perfect..  I claim to strive towards the goal of perfection, in Christ Jesus.  I am with faults though, both past and present – Continue reading: My Confession

So as some of my older postings show, I have young understanding of what the Lord was doing.  Now, I know, it was always Him.

Paradoxical Commandments

A good read – Jesus did it Anyway.  It’s about the Paradoxical Commandments by Dr. Kent M. Keith.  He wrote these back in the 60s for student leaders.  20-30yrs later, he learned that these roamed around the earth and were used by millions of people.  When he learned that Mother Theresa had his Paradoxical Commandments hanging up on the entrance of a refuge for children, he decided to write a book about them.  Here are the commandments: Continue reading: Paradoxical Commandments
