Being rejected or chosen can create opposite reactions of either sadness or joy–grief or exuberance. Sometimes the circumstance is dependent upon the actions of others and at times it is related to what we ourselves have or have not done. However in the Spiritual realm God has graciously given us the opportunity to choose. […]
THE PURPOSE OF STEWARDSHIP
A steward is one put in charge of another’s possessions–not to do his own will, but to dedicate himself to the fulfillment of his master’s plan. Many feel our reason for living is to pursue our own desires and accomplish what we want to become. However, our life and abilities have come from Another–whose […]
GOD THOUGHTS
Some say God does not exist (in spite of the complexity of the heavens and earth and also of our human bodies). Others acknowledge God in an abstract way. They think He is somewhere and will call out to Him in dire circumstances—either to ask His emergency help or to blame Him for allowing the […]
THE GREAT EXCHANGE
Ever since the Garden of Eden, mankind has struggled with who would guide their lives into the unknown future: their Creator or would they hold the reins in their own hands. The lie of Satan in the beginning was–you are more capable than God to decide what will give the most pleasure in life. […]
PARTAKERS OF GOD’S NATURE
God created mankind in His own image (with the choice of whose nature they would partake). It would not have to be an experiment for them to see which one would lead to abundant life and which would lead to death—He told them! Even to this hour the choice still has to be made, […]

We are faced continually with situations that need solutions–some very important, while others are “I have many things to accomplish. What shall I do first?” The Bible tells us that mankind (in himself) is not capable of guiding his own life–our insight is very limited. We do not really know what will transpire in […]
