Changing the Nation is Not Priority

There's too much concern about "changing the nation" and not enough concern about letting God change us as individuals. Only Jesus can do that, and He can only do it with those who allow Him to. Yes, even as believers, there are some who are not allowing God to change them; to grow their faith.

Who is Your Provider?

I've got some news for women; news that may shock and possibly even offend some of you, and here it is...YOUR HUSBAND IS NOT YOUR PROVIDER. Thankfully, this is not Carissa's news, it's the word of the Lord. Psalms 23:1 says it best; "THE LORD is my Shepherd [to feed, guide, and shield me], I shall not lack". THE Lord is the one who feeds me, guides me, and shields me.

Are You Trying to Gain by Your Efforts?

Oh, foolish Galatians! Who has cast an evil spell on you? For the meaning of Jesus Christ’s death was made as clear to you as if you had seen a picture of his death on the cross. Let me ask you this one question: Did you receive the Holy Spirit by obeying the Law of Moses? Of course not! You received the Spirit because you believed the message you heard about Christ. How foolish can you be? 

Are You Pretending because the Truth Hurts?

Have you ever met someone who speaks greatly of a loved one, only to find out that the truth is the exact opposite? Have you boasted about someone you love, giving them a highly regarded reputation, knowing that what you've said about them isn't actually true? All too often people embellish the truth about others because deep down they desperately want that person to be someone they're not.
