Be wise.
Don’t sacrifice the lifelong joy of authentic …
For the short term thrill of illicit.
Category: Simple Joy
Joy seldom comes without risking failure …
In love, faith, business and all of life.
In the cool of the day, God walked side-by-side and fellowshipped face-to-face with Adam …
Amidst the beauty of Adam’s garden and the fruit of his labor.
It’s OK to be human …
That’s where God wants to meet us too.
God delights in His creation …
And seeing the wonderful things we in turn create with it.
Fully confess, squarely ask God to forgive you, then humbly give Him the related guilt, condemnation and regrets your heart’s been carrying.
Do this …
And there’s no room to “forgive yourself.”
It’s settled, done, finished.
Victim or victor?
The past happened. We can’t change that.
We can, however, change its power over us by fully acknowledging and giving the ashes of our past – the burdens and regrets – to Christ.
When we do, He gives us beauty and wholeness in return …
But it’s always our choice.
An attitude of gratitude is a mile marker on the road to emotional health and spiritual wholeness.
When we give thanks …
We become more than ourselves and our circumstances.
Delight and gratitude are barometers of healthy relationships …
With God, our spouse and others.
When Satan worries more about your plans for the day than you do his …
Jesus smiles.
Don’t be trapped …
By the successes of your past.
“Religion” has become a pejorative term by existential “believers” …
In an attempt to dismiss Biblical imperatives they don’t like.
Apparently, the idea of any duty owed to God offends their “progressive” sensibilities.
So they live lives of doubt and despair …
Because authentic freedom only comes from Godly obedience.
Perhaps they should repent …
And enjoy a little more true religion instead!

Coffee is proof that God loves us and has a wonderful plan for our lives.
