Leave it in the dust

Sometimes you just need to let go and drop some things that are preventing your growth in Jesus. You need to leave them in the dust. Defined, it means to easily defeat, to go far ahead, and to abandon or leave behind. Sometimes people just feel the need to sling their garbage onto you. We … Continue reading Leave it in the dust →

Be specific

I'll admit it. God has called me out on being lazy. And that's why I love blogging, so I can share with you what He is sharing with me. I know the Bible says to pray always, without ceasing. (1 Thes. 5:17) That is just downright impossible! Thankfully, with God, all things are possible. (Matt … Continue reading Be specific →

Vacation Plans

Summer is in full swing, and before kids have to go back to school, I felt the need to take a vacation. I went online and found an itinerary that would tantalize and excite any traveler! Five different times receive 39 lashes. Three times get beaten with rods. Three times get shipwrecked. Spend a whole … Continue reading Vacation Plans →

Spelling

An atheist was helping his daughter who was learning to read. He thought he'd get two lessons in one by showing her what he believed. He wrote on a piece of paper, “God is nowhere.” He handed it to her and asked her to read it out loud. She was doing it slowing, sounding it … Continue reading Spelling →

Fun with the Bible

A lady was about to take a bath when the pastor showed up at her house and knocked on the door. She was just about to step in the tub, so did not answer the door. The pastor slipped a card through the mail slot that said “Look! I am standing at the door of … Continue reading Fun with the Bible →
