It's Time to Toss Plan "B"!

It’s my confident estimation that as a baby, you probably weren’t secretly stashing away jars of baby food in your crib. You probably weren't thinking, “Maybe I should keep an eating schedule in case mom forgets to feed me”. As a child, you naturally trusted your parents to take care of you without being aware that’s what you were doing. Why then do we have a “plan B” now?

Why There is No One to Blame but Ourselves

This morning I overheard a woman talking with her dad about how badly people drive. She talked about the dangers of texting and driving and how amazed she was at the number of people who still do it. She also mentioned that texting and driving is how she got into her last accident.

When Drinking Lemonade is a Sin

When indulging in various goods, I often hear people say phrases like "I worked hard for this". A challenging one for me to hear was "We finally get to take a vacation because we earned it after 4 years of school." What does school have to do with a vacation? What about getting away with your spouse because you love each other and you want to have some fun together? Admittedly, I have used similar phrases in the past; not when replacing a car battery or paying rent, but every time I did something I enjoyed. Whether buying body spray or renting a movie; I always felt the need to validate the expense.

It's Time to Let God be God

Children of God; it is time to understand who your Father is. It is time to step outside yourselves and get the revelation that you are not God. Seems self-explanatory; I mean, we know we’re not God right? If we know it, then why we do try to be Him? We cannot take care of ourselves better than He can. We cannot provide for ourselves better than He can. We cannot protect ourselves better than He can. We don’t know what we need nor want more than He does. In fact, apart from Him we can do nothing at all; let alone do it better.
