Unmet Expectations

Unmet Expectations

For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, says the Lord, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end. Jer. 29:11 (KJV) Unmet expectations can leave you feeling let down any time you look forward to something and it just doesn’t work out the way you wanted it. If we realize what is going on we can get over it and the sorrow of it will pass. But if we are not conscious of why we are feeling let down, resentment can cloud our judgment and we may beco

The Gift of You

The Gift of You

The people which sat in darkness saw great light; and to them which sat in the region and shadow of death light is sprung up. From that time Jesus began to preach, and to say, Repent: for the kingdom of heaven is at hand (Matt. 4: 16-17). Each one of us is a gift.

"Why don't we agree to disagree” is never a question but rather a need to keep things as they are without having to change one’s point of view. Though some hold to it for social grac

Who Am I?

Who Am I?

…for you are all sons of light and sons of day. We are not of night nor of darkness… (1 Thess. 5:5.) Why were you born and what is your purpose in life? Why are you living now in this particular generation rather than one long ago? Who are you? Is it possible to gain answers to these questions or are they merely philosophical musings void of any significance? Scripture makes it clear that God created human beings in His likeness. The first step in finding out the real you
