Do not worry...

This message is for you:  I didn’t know what to write about today and then I thought of you.  I’m not sure exactly what you’ve been anxious over but God says, “Do not worry.”  You have been drained of your time and energy because of that situation.  You have to do what you’re going to do and let it go.  Everyday, you think about it, even if just for a moment.  You need to release it.  When I searched the scriptures for God’s Truth on worrying, His message was clear – “Do not worry.”

·         Can any one of you by worrying add a single hour to your life?  Matthew 6:27
·         Therefore, I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or drink; or about  your body, what you will wear.  Matthew 6:25
·         Do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself.  Matthew 6:34
·         Do not worry beforehand about what to say.  Just say whatever is given you at the time, for it is not you speaking, it is the Holy Spirit.   Mark 13:11

God doesn’t want us to worry about anything at all.  From the top of our head to the bottom of our feet, He is fortifying us.  We should not worry at all.  Worrying infers that we do not believe God is able to make everything alright.  Worry implies doubt – where there is doubt, faith is absent.  And my friends, when God is taking attendance, you do not want your faith to be absent.  Let go of that worry and remind yourself of the Almighty God you serve (before He has to remind you Himself).  : /

Real Friends

With all these social networking sites popping up all over the place, its fun to peruse the sites to meet new people and connect with old ones.   We enjoy looking at each other’s pictures, videos, and chatting.   We stay in touch and we reach out to our “Friends.”   I get the idea Facebook had with the whole “friends” craze, though I’m certain they’ve used the term quite loosely. I must apologize before proceeding because I, on the other hand, am quite frugal with the term. FB friends send you a link …real friends take you there. FB friends review your pics…real friends are in them with you. FB friends write on your wall…real friends write on your heart. FB friends respond to your posts…real friends respond to your cries. FB friends start drama on your page…real friends talk it out behind closed doors FB friends only tell you what they like…real friends will tell you what they don’t like FB friends want to know WHAT you’re doing…real friends want to know HOW you’re doin...

Are you a Leader or a Follower?

Being a leader seems to come with its own level of power and prestige.   A leader is thought to be strong, courageous, bold, powerful and full of vision – after all, he is supposed to be leading us somewhere.   A follower, though the term lacks the same glitz and glam as leader, is ever so necessary as well.   How ever could a man lead, if there is no one to follow him?   Each position carries its own weight.   It doesn’t matter whether you lead or follow – it matters “how” and it definitely matters “who”.   As a leader, the people who follow you are your responsibility.   Their life is being influenced by you directly.   They are looking to you for guidance and what you deposit in them will be absorbed.   Parents are leaders by definition because they have direct influence over your children; teachers over their students; Pastors over their congregations; and some friends over other friends – a leader can emerge anywhere.   A leader mu...

And I am convinced that nothing can ever separate us from His love

I need to be reminded of how much God truly loves me.   We all have a generic sense that God loves us.   We’ve heard the song, “Jesus loves me, this I know, for the Bible tells me so…”   Even with knowing how much God loves me, I still struggle with understanding how that love for me plays out in my life.   God doesn’t love the way we love.   His love is beyond what we even consider.   His love is so specific, so precise and so definite.   Some days, when I’m being nice to my family and I’ve paid my tithes, or given money to someone less fortunate – I feel loved by God.   At least, I may feel more lovable because I’m doing things that God would approve of.   There are many other times when I don’t feel so wonderful.   I may have snapped at a friend or said I couldn’t help out with something when I know I could’ve.   There are times when I am in direct violation of the will of God for my life.   Those times I feel awful. ...
