Your will or God's will

Your will or God's will

We all seem to want everything our way, but we can not have it our way, our life does not belong to Burger King, but to God, God has His certain will for us.

"Not everyone who says to me, 'Lord, Lord,' will enter the kingdom of heaven, but only he who does the will of my Father who is in heaven. " Matthew 7:21

We try to make our will God's will by turning the bible around to fit our wants, knowing that God did not not want it that way. We must… Continue

Shay: God's Plan

Shay: God's Plan

At a fund-raising dinner for a school that serves learning-disabled children, the father of one of the school's students delivered a speech that would never be forgotten by all who attended. After extolling the school and its dedicated staff, he offered a question. "Everything God does is done with perfection. Yet, my son, Shay, cannot learn things as other children do.

I had nearly lost my foothold.

3 For I envied the arrogant

when I saw the prosperity of the wicked.

4 They have no struggles;

The Old Man and the Dog

By Catherine Moore

"Watch out! You nearly broad sided that car!" My father yelled at me. "Can't you do anything right?"

Those words hurt worse than blows. I turned my head toward the elderly man in the seat beside me, daring me to challenge him. A lump rose in my throat as I averted my eyes. I wasn't prepared for another battle.

My voice was measured and… Continue

Seeking God in a New Year

Seeking God in a New Year

If Jesus needed to pray the first thing in the morning, what about us? The Bible says,

“So whether you eat or drink or whatever you do, do it all for the glory of God.” I Cor. 10:31

"Seek first the kingdom of God..." Matt. 6:33

If you always seek first in life to glorify and honor God you won’t go very wrong in life. There are three basic priorities that I believe every Christian should have in life. If 2010 is to be great – you need to… Continue
