Thanksgiving Thoughts

Our faith can overcome anger

It’s Thanksgiving again,
and my thoughts are divided.
Like our family,
and the culture of this nation.

A day to remember,
what God has provided.
While waiting,
to see the blessings to come.

A day to reflect,
on the things we’ve lost.
It could have been worse;
we are thankful it was not.

It’s time to remember,
the arguments at the table.
And to let it go;
do not hold it forever.

Think of our epic dreams,
and the past we shared.
The good we can do,
and the future we can see.

Being thankful fuels our faith.
It sees what we can be.
It believes it will be so.
In a future day to come.

The Coming Persecution

A Look at Matthew 24 “Then shall they deliver you up to be afflicted, and shall kill you: and ye shall be hated of all nations for my name’s sake. And then shall many be offended, and shall betray one another, and shall hate one another. And many false prophets shall rise, and shall deceive…

How Are We Tempted?

It’s important to understand. In order to resist temptation, we must understand what is going on. If we miss an aspect of it, we cannot really resist it. We just shift it around or suffer through. “Let no man say when he is tempted, I am tempted of God: for God cannot be tempted with…

How Do I Turn To God?

What does that look like? It’s so simple anyone can do it. That is how God designed it. I’m going to avoid magical theological words and just give it straight. As we go through life things happen to us. Good things and bad. We have excitement over good things. We celebrate victories and enjoy time…
