Recently I read in Max Lucado’s devotional book: GOD IS WITH YOU EVERY DAY the following: DON’T MEASURE YOUR LIFE BY YOUR ABILITY; MEASURE IT BY GOD’S. Measure your ability with the world’s and you will fall short. Measure your ability by GOD and your ability is endless and even powerful! GOD completes us where … More HOW WE SHOULD MEASURE
It’s useless these spiritual resumé’s we make. They won’t redeem us or get us into Heaven either. But oh, we do make them. No amount of quiet time, volunteering, Church attendance, or small group participation will get us near those pearly gates. And do we build our spiritual lists to get other’s attentions or even … More OUR SPIRITUAL RESUME’
If you are like me, you can see the flaw in the world’s truth. It never sets you free. If anything it places you in bondage and that is exactly where satan wants us.

We need to hand it over……..all the pain, doubts and feeling that we are not enough. And why?

GOD’s goal for us is to make us more like CHRIST and not to give us everything we want in this life. HIS love for HIS children goes beyond anything we can imagine on this earth.

You can trade in chaos for peace…….did you know? JOHN 14: 27 “PEACE I LEAVE WITH YOU; MY PEACE I GIVE YOU. NOT AS THE WORLD GIVES DO I GIVE YOU.” Only in CHRIST, our Savior can we walk in this much wanted peace. I think we don’t grasp enough what CHRIST said to us: … More SUNDAY REFLECTIONS
We might not feel worthy at the moment, but HE calls us worthy. And worthy is the LORD! Worthy is HE who forgives our sins and our transgressions.

Christmas is still with us even after the calendar reads December 25th……..and even after and into the New Year. WISE MEN SEEK HIM ALL YEAR LONG It’s because of GOD’S grace that Christmas remains. We put away the decorations and Christmas tree, but GOD’S love for us never leaves us. JESUS doesn’t give up on … More CHRISTMAS REMAINS
Ever notice how you are drawn to the color red? The eyes just find it. And this time of year, the color red is everywhere you look. There is nothing more lovely than a package tied with red ribbon under the tree. We also decorate with red in our homes and even then the red … More SUNDAY REFLECTIONS
