Humble Servant

So the question is and always has been what is life?    So with all the hate in the world today what is life really worth, can you answer that?      There is only one thing that has kept me going for all these years and that is FAITH!      There is a time lik e right now that you can set back and just watch what is going on and wonder "why" but nobody has all the answers but the Bible does so you just have to go One Day At A Time.     Some people don't believe in religion and that's their choice but  wouldn't it be easier to believe in something than nothing at all? P.S. it's a personal relationship with Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior.       Were not perfect and I for one don't want to be but I strive to be like Jesus but we learn from our mistakes and errors.     I have wronged and been wronged but you have to ask for  forgiveness and live. This is what I try to do every day but life ...

  Good reminder for Christians who think God as harsh or demanding  I think the below passage from the Gospel of John is a good reminder for Christians who may be tempted at times to think of God as harsh or demanding.    “Greater love has no one than this, that someone lay down his life for his friends. You are my friends if you do what I command you. No longer do I call you servants, for the servant does not know what his master is doing; but I have called you friends, for all that I have heard from my Father I have made known to you,” (John 15:13-15).

  A Prayer for When We Feel Tempted to Sin    Dear God,    It is so hard to fight against temptations.  The devil bombards us constantly.  Teach us how to wisely and effectively use Your Word against Satan’s strategies.  Help us keep our eyes on Jesus.  Thank yo u that Jesus conquered sin and Satan, and gives us power to stand against the enemy.    I ask for all of this in Jesus Most Holy Name, Amen.

Will I See My Animals in Heaven? Animals are Listed Among the Residents of the New Heaven In two separate descriptions of the New Heaven and New Earth, the Bible mentions that animals will be present. Isaiah 11:11 says, “The wolf shall dwell with the lamb, and the leopard shall lie down with the young goat and the calf and the lion and the fatt ened calf together; and a little child shall lead them.” As I am doing this post from various ideas from online to put together something on this thought we are about to let our Sophie cross the Rainbow Bridge will it be hard "YES" we lost Rowdy last fall and that was one scary moment I have heard of them passin g away that way but it was just like "well you know I have had enough" and he was gone. Yes, I know we all have lost pets and if you agree with me or not it's still a little rough letting go. This argument could go on forever so there are many different ideas and thoughts on this. So, I have grabbed a few things ...

  AUDIO According to the Bible, the whole truth about Christianity and Christ rests solely on the bodily resurrection of Christ. So much so that the Apostle Paul, while writing to the Church in Corinth, argues, “If Christ has not been raised, our preaching is usele ss and so is your faith” ( 1 Cor. 15:14 ). In other words, what Paul is implying is that if He did not rise, then Christianity is entirely false! But if He did, then the event is of great significance in all of history. Dr. Gary R. Habermas, one of the world’ s leading experts on the evidence for the resurrection of Jesus, offers three lines of reasoning on the basis of Scripture, and they are as follows: Scriptural evidence on the basis of 1 Corinthians 15 : Two important characteristics about 1 Corinthians 15 need to be mentioned when it comes to the evidence that it offers concerning the ‘post-resurrection appearances of Jesus’ ( 1 Cor. 15:4-8 ). First, it i s a fact that it is one of the “earliest reports” available...

  AUDIO 2 Corinthians 7:1, It’s not always easy to choose obedience to God, especially if we’re trying to do it all on our own. Remember, we are not trying to live a holy life in order to earn salvation; living a holy life is a natural outgrowth of being saved by God’s grace and filled with His Spirit. It is also important not to give up when we mess up. When we fail, our response should be to confess the sin and keep moving forward in our Christian walk. Like-minded people in the Bible refer to those who share similar beliefs, values, and goals, particularly in their faith. Scriptures such as Philippians 2:2 encourage believers to be united in spirit and purpose, emphasizing the importance of fellowship and support among Christians for spiritual growth. Standing with God means aligning your beliefs and actions with His teachings and values, often involving faith, prayer, and a commitment to living according to His will. It reflects a personal relationship and trust in God, which c...

  The following are 13 Realities of an Angry Pastor Audio 1. Angry Pastors Have Experienced Significant Pain and Disappointment. Hurt people hurt people. Even when they are pastors. 2. Angry Pastors Have Control Issues. They get angry when they cannot control others and/or situations. This often reveals itself when they are questioned. Angry pastors frequently confuse questions with questioning. 3. Angry Pastors Have Short Tenures. Because they lack emotional intelligence and needlessly burn so many bridges, attendance and giving decline. The people have voted with their feet and wallets. The pastor is ultimately removed. 4. Angry Pastors Lead Smaller and Smaller Congregations. Interestingly, anger limits the size of churches you can be entrusted with. I know of one pastor who pastored a historically strong church averaging 800 in attendance. Upon his self-destruction, the only church he could now get was less than 100 in attend ance. 5. Angry Pastors Offen...
