“To the angel of the church in Laodicea write: These are the words of the Amen, the faithful and true witness, the ruler of God’s creation. I know your deeds, that you are neither cold nor hot.

I Do Not Seal My Lips
I think some of us or all of us at times get fearful when those who do evil succeed in their plans, and it is because we are not trusting in the Lord, and we are not resting in him; and/or it is because we believe somehow that evil can trump God, but it cannot! … Continue reading I Do Not Seal My Lips
Saved Through Fire
Friday, May 15, 2015, 7:11 a.m. – The Lord Jesus put in mind the song “For By Grace.” Speak, Lord, your words to my heart. I read 1 Corinthians 3:1-15 (NASB). What Divides Us? And I, brethren, could not speak to you as to spiritual men, but as to men of flesh, as to infants … Continue reading Saved Through Fire

My Witnesses
“…the Lamb will overcome them because he is Lord of lords and King of kings—and with him will be his called, chosen and faithful followers” (Rev. 17:14).

Wait!
Sometimes in life we face situations that are difficult to handle or even to comprehend. We get hurt, sad, frustrated, impatient, and/or confused, etc., longing for the day when God will intervene on our behalf or on the behalf of those we love, and/or when our circumstances will begin to make sense, and/or when our … Continue reading Wait!
He Lifted Our Burdens
