  1. Darling, Where are You?

    Many of us have loved ones we care about who are professing faith in Jesus Christ but who are not living what they profess. We are concerned for them for we can see the damage they are doing to their lives, and we know that there is a better life for them if they will repent of their sins and...
  2. Battles of The Mind

    Our enemy, he prowls about, Attacking minds, instilling doubt. He wants us fearful, doubting God. He wants us fallen, in his squad. He whispers nothings in our ears, He wants to fill our minds with fears. He loves confusion, fears, and doubts. Division’s what he’s all about. He’s lacking sense...
  3. Walk with Integrity, No Lies

    Proverbs 19 Select Verses 1 Better is a poor person who walks in his integrity than one who is crooked in speech and is a fool. 2 Desire without knowledge is not good, and whoever makes haste with his feet misses his way. Ever since the first man Adam sinned against God, all humans...
  4. Gone With the Wind

    Gone with the wind are people in sin, Following platitudes in their ingratitude. Beckoning not Him they forgot, Bent on their fortitudes, slaves to their hardihood. All for the flesh that they refresh, Living their livelihoods slaves to consumer goods. Them caring not God they forgot, Living...
  5. Emotions and Devotions

    Don’t let your emotions ruin your devotions. Don’t let your thinking be a cause for sinking. Don’t let the chatter cause your faith to shatter. Don’t turn the tables and put your trust in fables. Time now is fleeting. Who are you believing? Truth is what matters. Listen not what flatters...
  6. What I Know

  7. What's Important?

    Christian brother, where are you? Christian sister, and you, too. What’s important? Do you know? Does it matter? Does it show? Your intentions, what are they? Read your Bible, kneel and pray? Have devotions here and there? Share the gospel anywhere? Some of you are quite sincere, Follow...
  8. Imperfect People and a Perfect God

    Some of you have probably seen these memes on social media where they list the weaknesses and sins of some of the people in the Bible. They will tell you that Jacob was a cheater, Peter had a temper, David had an affair, Noah got drunk, Jonah ran from God, Paul was a murderer, Gideon was...
  9. That Your Hearts May be Encouraged

    “For I want you to know how great a struggle I have for you and for those at Laodicea and for all who have not seen me face to face, that their hearts may be encouraged, being knit together in love, to reach all the riches of full assurance of understanding and the knowledge of God's mystery...
  10. Lying Tongues

    You say one thing, But you do another. You say you’re pure, But have another lover. Your talk is cheap. And your walk is failing. You’re not sincere, So, you can stop your railing. You play your games, And your lips do conquer. You may fool some, But, I have got your number. You plead...
  11. Deception is Huge

  12. In This Crazy World

    In this crazy world of ours, With emotions flying high, With fear mongers at their worst Blowing everything sky high, Can we trust in what they say? Do their words even make sense? Is it logical to say That a few is an event? An agenda, do they have? Is it clear to you right now? That the...
  13. Unless the Rebellion Comes First

    “Now concerning the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ and our being gathered together to him, we ask you, brothers, not to be quickly shaken in mind or alarmed, either by a spirit or a spoken word, or a letter seeming to be from us, to the effect that the day of the Lord has come. Let no one...
  14. Marriage and Divorce Discussed

    “And Pharisees came up to him and tested him by asking, ‘Is it lawful to divorce one's wife for any cause?’ He answered, ‘Have you not read that he who created them from the beginning made them male and female, and said, “Therefore a man shall leave his father and his mother and hold fast to his...

    Liars, liars, all around Join their circus Hear their clown He’s their idol Of renown He’s their piper Follow him Mesmerizing With a grin Stupefying Half past ten Winsome he is Folks adore Put their idol To the floor They keep coming Back for more They don’t get it What’s in store Still...

  17. Lies and Betrayals

    Lies and betrayals, And many a tale, And multitudes sacrificed While their chiefs hailed. Ribbons and marches, And buildings and arches, And letters of magnitude, And those of gratitude. Crowds of confusion And lots of illusions Leaves many in darkness Regardless of smartness. The enemy...
  18. Donkeys Honking

    Donkeys honking in their pride, Taking others for a ride, Telltale signs of something bad, Someone somewhere has been had. Magic tricks, that is their game, Mischief making, all the same. Looking, though, to others blame, Absolute, they feel no shame. Corner others with their tricks, That is...
  19. Traffic Jam

    Stopped up traffic, where to go? Where’s the answers? Do you know? Pitter-patter, quick and light, Truth has taken a big flight. Easy road takes you around, Where the truth not to be found. Flitter-flatter, do their tricks, Play their games and pick up sticks. All’s a game, they do the same...
  20. For Our Nation

    War, politics, lies, betrayal, the murdering of innocents, our young men and women in uniform dying on a battlefield via men of power; takeovers of nations, riots and lawlessness, sin abounding, the church asleep or complacent for the most part; the gospel diluted, and do we even notice...
