Praise the Lord my brothers and sisters. I want to let you all know that on January 12, 2010 I will be going into the hospital for major surgery.

POWER TO BECOME

God said in the Bible that "we are like sheep who have gone astray" and that "all of us have sinned and fall short of His glory." He also said that the "result of sin is death, but the free gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord." He says that if we turn from our sin knowing that Jesus paid the penalty for our sin on the cross and receive Him into our heart and life, He will give us the power to become His children.

In all of life we reap what we sow. If we resent and reject, we are not even capable of accepting forgiveness from God or our loved ones. If we… Continue

Don't build our house on a career. Don't build our house on a thrill. Don't build our house on a talent. Don't build our house on one solitary earthly relationship. Don't pursue things that don't last. Build our house on the only thing that can last: Faith.

Do we have faith? If we have faith, then we have what it takes to tackle our problems before they tackle us. If we have that confident hope, then we will know how to handle whatever life brings us.

One thing no one can take away… Continue
