For the past year, I have been going around in circles doing a little bit here and a little bit there, but nothing significant. I have been praying, reading my Bible, and writing blogs. After all, we are living in a pandemic and you would think I would use this precious time to seek the Lord more. What does it mean to seek God?
In 2 Chronicles 7:14, the Lord God …
Have you ever wondered why God continually requests that we bring our burdens to him? The simple answer is that our burdens are heavy and He is the only one that can offer us rest (Matt 11:28-30). God wants to be in relationship with us. Psalm 139 shows us that He already knows our thoughts, our feelings, our whereabouts and everything that burdens us. When we give God …
Have you gone through trials and you feel that God has not given you a breakthrough? Maybe God has answered your prayer, but you did not realize it. You were looking for a different answer because you did not understand what God was doing in your life.
Begin to look at how God is shaping your life while you are …

Are you going through difficulty in your household to the point of giving up? Your children are driving you crazy, or you may be single, bored, and do not feel like moving forward. You might be going through a mirage of issues that you have not shared with anyone. I am here to encourage you today with a resounding, “Do not give up.”

Do you remember times in your growing up years when you were disciplined for your wrongdoings? Your parents disciplined you because they loved you and did not want to see you take the wrong path. As you reach adulthood and have your own children, you understand the importance of parental discipline and thank God for your parents’ goodness.
Apostle Paul referenced …

Today, I will define guilt, give examples on how your guilt came about, how to deal with guilty feelings, and put them behind you, and lastly discuss what the Bible has to say about the origin of sin and how Jesus came to reconcile us back to God.
Guilt is defined as an action that you commit to hurt or harm someone physically or emotionally and you feel sorry …
Picture your mother and father having to go to another place to be taxed while your mother was pregnant with you. That was the fate of Mary and Joseph, who left Nazareth to go to Bethlehem while Mary was pregnant with Jesus and about to give birth. Mary and Joseph must have been anxious and overwhelmed as they sought a resting place for Mary to give birth. …
As we journey through this pandemic, we are certain to have unsurmountable issues. Some of you have lost loved ones, businesses, jobs, and do not have enough funds to put food on your tables. You are overwhelmed with helping your children at home with distant learning and if you are in a similar situation as I am, you do not have a place to send your special-needs son or …
We believe that God heals and provides for many with whom we come in contact. While faith is what we hope for and the evidence of things not seen (Hebrews 11:1), God is expecting us to exercise our faith through an action.
The Bible gives many instances where people exercised their faith through an action. We learned from the book of Ruth, chapter 1, that Naomi’s …
During this life-journey, and particularly during this pandemic, we may experience suffering, depression due to loss of jobs, challenges to put food on our tables or difficulties keeping our children focused at home, but we must not lose hope. God knows that we live in a fallen world, that all have sinned and fall short of his glory.
We can no longer point fingers …
In John 8:12, Jesus says, “I am the light of the World.” We know that the word of God is true. God sent His Son, Jesus, to the earth to redeem humanity from the curse of sin and death (Gal 3:13) Without the shedding of blood, there could be no remission of sin, so Jesus died once so that we could have forgiveness of sin through him.
What benefits do you and …
Have you ever taken an inventory of your life? Without checking your own life and being aware of how you feel, you cannot make changes. I do not know what issues you are facing, but I chose to deal with “unforgiveness” because it is a common issue that many people face today. I will deal with guilt and fear in future posts.
Unforgiveness comes about when …
