God is terrifying. His power is so infinitely vast that we cannot stand in his presence and survive. I don’t know about you but to me someone that powerful terrifies me. Isaiah 2:19 says,” Men will go into caves of the rocks and into holes of the ground before the terror of the LORD and […]
No More Worrying
We are servants of God, doing everything in our power and His to serve His will. As long as we try our best and trust in God, He will be pleased with us and will use us. This is what I believed, but there is a flaw in this mentality. What happens when we fail […]
He is There
Life is hard. During the good times we feel like we are on top of the world, but when we descend back into the valleys we start to think ,” What good can there be in this world?” We realize that life isn’t easy, and we question where God has been during these times when we […]
Love
Love. Love is a very widely used word in our culture today. It is used to describe anything from good food to your spouse. But love, it seems, is not often used to describe what it truly is. 1 John 4:8 says,” The one who does not love does not know God, for God is love,” […]
More Than I can Handle
God will never give you more than you can handle. Growing up I believed this common “christian” phrase meant to reassure us that we can overcome the obstacles put in front of us. But that’s not true. We cannot overcome the obstacles in front of us, whatever they may be, on our own. Thankfully we […]

I am, a difference maker Oh I am, a difference maker Oh I am, the only one who speaks to Him And I am the friendliest of friends of God. I am on fire for God, I have done so much for Him and I go to church every Sunday. I even sponsor […]
What do We have to Fear?
” The only thing we have to fear is fear itself”. A famous and noble quote from President Franklin Roosevelt, this has been repeated times beyond measure in an effort to reduce fear. As Christians though, this quote makes no sense. The only thing we need to fear is God Himself, though unbelievers have more […]
If You Wish to Live
Churches are filled with shallow Christians. Christians who attend church, talk spiritually with the others in their church, and say their nightly prayers. Don’t be one of those Christians. God calls us to live totally for Him in every single aspect of our lives. If you wish to live, you must truly live, don’t simply […]
Any Other Way
Love hurts. Some people say it’s not love that hurts but what we as humans mistake for love that hurts. That is also true, but love still does hurt. Jesus didn’t go to the cross to be beaten, mocked, and murdered because it was the right thing to do, He went because He loves us. […]
Over and Underneath
The band Tenth Avenue North has an album named Over and Underneath, which has a very interesting meaning. They used this to describe God; He is Over, He’s underneath, He’s inside, He’s in-between. I would like to go over the meanings of all four of these descriptions. Over God is over. He is […]
