Compassion
I've seen so many hurts because of wagging tongues and pointing fingers, but how would Jesus treat these same people? I think with love and compassion, and we need to follow his example a little more as we deal with one another.

This is Were I Am
There are times when we don't know where we're going or how we're going to get there, that's when we take that "big step" of faith and hold tight to Father's hand.

It Was All Planned
For those who think the cross was a surprise to God, think again. From the beginning of creation, The Trinity knew and was prepared for the death of Jesus on the Cross. I for one, am so thankful that He was willing to die in my place.

Vessels of the Master
In the kindom of God, we are all different with many different ministries and talents, but all equal in the sight of God.

Shattered Dreams
It is so easy to be fooled into thinking the fast lane of life, means 'we've made it big.' All to often it leaves us with shattered dreams, and broken, ruined lives.

Who�s Image
It is so important that we live the Gospel, as well as tell it. God needs his children to be the gospel in action as much as in words.

God's Plans
It is very OK to make plans for our lives, but God has plans for us that we can never imagine. Read Jer.29:11 and he has the last word on our plans, if we are his children and our lives are in his hand.

Having A Real Bad Day
Sometimes life sucks, and it seems like we'll never make it. That's the time we need to just shut ourselves in with the Master, for a fresh tune up and infilling.

Life�s Song
Someone said "life is a song", but for each of us, we sing in different keys, scores,timings and compositions, but however we sing, Someone is there to sing along with us in whatever way we need Him.
