Listen, I’ve been rambling on for the past week about our bad habits and how God can remove them from us and restore us. So check this out;“Those whom I love, I reprove and discipline, so be zealous and repent. Behold, I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears my voice and opens the door, I...
freedomJune 26, 2019
“There is therefore now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus. For the law of the Spirit of life has set you free in Christ Jesus from the law of sin and death. For God has done what the law, weakened by the flesh, could not do. By sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh A...
addictionJune 25, 2019
I’m feeling it today! Look, I get it, we all need to feel a reconnection with God and with people after we have done something wrong or been through a difficult circumstance. But if we don’t find that bond, we will try and comfort ourselves with something else, anything else, to numb the pain. Ou...
prayerJune 24, 2019
Over the weekend, I noticed a tattoo my friend had; “Be still and know”. This is from the Psalm of King David. Psalm 46:10-11“"Be still, and know that I am God. I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth!" The Lord of hosts is with us; the God of Jacob is our fortress. Se...
peaceJune 20, 2019
“I have said these things to you, that in me you may have peace. In the world you will have tribulation. But take heart; I have overcome the world."”John 16:33 It’s the end of the quarter and I found myself slipping in and out what I call my “peace” or “serenity” yesterday. It gave me pause to th...
faithJune 19, 2019
So will we always see the result of the work we’ve done by witnessing to others and being there when they need us the most? Most certainly not. But that shouldn’t discourage us from being there and sharing the Gospel. You see, we never really know how God is using us, we just need to have faith t...
discipleshipJune 18, 2019
9“Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit,”Matthew 28:19 So let talk about these blessing we’ve been given. I got to thinking more about why, at certain times, we feel we are blessed more than others. And by “o...
gratitudeJune 17, 2019
I hope you all had a great weekend and for all you fathers out there, you were able to spend a day doing what you wanted. I had a successful weekend in VA racing but it caused me pause to reflect on some things. Over two days of racing I won 10/12 races or “tests”. The two I lost were from a hard...
workJune 14, 2019
It’s Friday! I don’t know about you, but I’m ready for the weekend. This has been one of those weeks full of “are you serious?”, and “Hello, anybody home?!”. Lol. But, hey that’s work sometimes, right?We are very blessed to do what we do. And there are many out there who don’t have the “work” and...
forgivenessJune 13, 2019
Watching the news, scrolling through social media or just taking an watchful eye on what goes on around us, I can’t help but notice that it seems like everyone is out for vengeance. It’s ridiculous honestly. We have talked repeatedly about forgiveness and it’s a HUGE topic with me as it is the es...
faithJune 12, 2019
What are you waiting for? I’ve been thinking about this simple question for over a week now. You see, one of us has been given a great opportunity to change the direction of their life and career by making some big changes and trusting God to lead the way. I’m super excited for him too, God’s got...
gods-faithfulnessJune 10, 2019
So in Romans 8, we are told, “if God is for us, who can be against us?” What an incredibly comforting promise from the living God, especially in the troubled times in which we are living. But God requires from us two things in return: they are faithfulness and obedience. You see, He is a jealous...
friendshipJune 7, 2019
I bet you wouldn’t think I would write about Neil Diamond would you? Well, I am...sort of. Stay with me here;I believe that the Lord Jesus wants me to encourage you to look after your friendships and not neglect them, nor take them for granted!We need each other, especially in these turbulent tim...
forgivenessJune 6, 2019
You ever think about how powerful Jesus is and His command for us forgive, as God has, those who have hurt us? I mean think about this, with that one selfless action, He becomes the great restorer. Pretty awesome I think. “"If your brother sins against you, go and tell him his fault, between you...
humilityJune 4, 2019
This past weekend was somewhat disappointing but at the same time gratifying. You see, somewhere in the crazy journey of mine to grow my relationship with Christ, I think I’m beginning to learn what humility all means. For years I set my sights on accomplishing thing that defined “who” I was...bu...
winning-losingJune 3, 2019
Sport, like life, has winners and loser. It’s always has and it always will. Despite the wishes of a seemingly blind new culture that wants to teach us “fairness” and insulate of from pain and failure, you will lose and things won’t always go your way. But that’s ok. You see, when we walk with Ch...
perseveranceMay 30, 2019
One of the great things I love about sport, and in my case Motocross, is the parallels I can draw from it that relate to my life and more important my faith. pAs I am packing to leave for Florida in the morning I am overcome with anxiety and excitement! This is the chance to punch a ticket to “Th...
truthfulnessMay 28, 2019
Why do people tell lies? 🤷🏻♂️Well, that’s easy. Because lying might enable guilty people to escape responsibility and consequences for their misdeeds. Because lying might preserve the illusion of their innocence. Because lying helps the sinner avoid having to face up to the ugly and soul-pollu...
christian-livingMay 23, 2019
Y’all remember the trend many years ago that we all wore in our arms and stuck bumper stickers on our cars that said, “WWJD”? (What would Jesus Do)I’ve been reading about how we should watch what we say and how we act and this came to mind. Why ever happened to it? Did we figure out what Jesus wo...
angerMay 22, 2019
“Know this, my beloved brothers: let every person be quick to hear, slow to speak, slow to anger; for the anger of man does not produce the righteousness of God.”James 1:19-20Seeking revenge or trash talking someone else when they hurt us is easy to do. We all have time everyday where someone has...
surrenderMay 21, 2019
What are you trying to hang on to that Jesus wants you to let go of, and turn it over to him for safekeeping? I’ve had to give up some things in my life that I thought I never could, but ultimately brought me closer to Christ. “This earth is not my home, I’m just passing through.” How many times...
missionMay 20, 2019
“And Jesus answered them, "Those who are well have no need of a physician, but those who are sick. I have not come to call the righteous but sinners to repentance."”Luke 5:31-32 You see, God sent His only son Jesus to Earth for primary purpose: to give us new life. In Luke, Jesus rewords His miss...
healingMay 17, 2019
“He himself bore our sins in his body on the tree, that we might die to sin and live to righteousness. By his wounds you have been healed. For you were straying like sheep, but have now returned to the Shepherd and Overseer of your souls.”1 Peter 2:24-25 Have you ever gotten lost? It can be one o...
repentanceMay 15, 2019
“There were some present at that very time who told him about the Galileans whose blood Pilate had mingled with their sacrifices. And he answered them, "Do you think that these Galileans were worse sinners than all the other Galileans, because they suffered in this way? No, I tell you; but unless...
