You’ll find two types of blogs here: long-form (Blog) & short-form (Daily Dose).
Gratitude turns what we have into enough, because it shifts our focus from what’s missing to Who is present. A thankful heart sees God’s hand in both plenty and in pain, and finds peace in His provision. When we practice gratitude, lack loses its grip and contentment takes its place. “In everything give thanks; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you” (1 Thessalonians 5:18).
Those who make a claim on Christ without their conduct following Christ are actually counterfeiting Christ. And conversely, to truly know Him is to truly show Him. "Only let your conduct be worthy of the gospel of Christ" (Philippians 1:27).
Loving one another is an essential mark of a true Christian. Without love for our neighbor, one cannot claim to have the love of the Savior. "Jesus said, 'You shall love the Lord your God...And you shall love your neighbor as yourself'" (Matthew 22:37-40).
We shouldn't ask God to put His hand on our plans. We should ask God to direct our hands so as to be able to carry out His plans. "Many are the plans in a person’s heart, but it is the Lord’s purpose that prevails" (Proverbs 19:21).
When it is all said and done, nothing will matter except for what we did "in the Lord" and "for the Lord." Thus, let us not lose sight of Jesus as we do all things for His purpose. "For from Him and through Him and to Him are all things. To Him be glory forever. Amen" (Romans 11:36).
The comfort that we have from the Word of God is not that it promises us freedom from trials, but that it promises us freedom through trials. "I will walk about in freedom, for I have sought out Your precepts" (Psalm 119:45).
Love reached its truest and fullest expression in the life of Jesus. He loved without limits. Jesus loved the Pharisee as much as He loved the individual with leprosy. Jesus loved Judas as much as He loved Thomas. Jesus loved the...
On Labor Day weekend, I’ll begin a new teaching series at Landmark Church titled “The Last Revelation: Countdown To The Kingdom.” For the past several months, I’ve been studying, praying, and seeking the Lord in preparation for what He desires to...
This blog is for me. It’s my reminder to remember where I once was and the work that only God could have ever accomplished. It’s so easy to forget the past places we’ve been and even the past faces we’ve seen. For me, the place was prison; and for this blog, the face is a young man named Tommy. When I first met Tommy, his nickname was Toast. Tommy Toast. And he “earned” this name because he spent a lot of time being “burnt out.” You see, Tommy was a self-proclaimed heroin addict. His addiction made heroin his salvation. However, his pursuit for the false salvation of drugs only left him so high that his actions consequentially led him to be so low. Oh so low. How low can you go? Well, this level has only one condition and position lower, and that is.....
Oh Lord, I do not know why You have found favor with me, nor can I ever explain properly how gracious and merciful You have been with my life, for there are no words that could express such magnitude, such greatness, such splendor. Your NAME alone is worthy to be praised and adored. With no solitary act behind it and just three letters on a piece of paper, G-O-D, is worth more than life itself. Your NAME holds more weight than this world and at the sound of your NAME alone, the hearts of mankind shatter and nations crumble. But You declare more than just....
Jesus said, “He who is without sin among you, let him throw a stone at her first” (John 8:7). And the only one who was sinless to throw, was the only one who wanted ALL sinners to know. Jesus wanted everyone down the ages to know that it is much better to be a stone than to throw a stone. You see, anyone can pick up a stone to judge, but what if we learned to pick up the characteristics of a stone to love? How so? Well, if “IMAYB a Stone,” than I cannot afford to throw....
We are officially home from our vacation time, but I have to admit that I have not left behind my “vacation mind.” What’s a vacation mind? It’s a state of mind that unwinds so that the peace of God may enter in. It’s a mind that rewinds to reflect and keeps God at the center. It’s a mind that finds its vacation in Christ without needing to escape from the everyday responsibilities of life. You see, this vacation didn’t help me get away, it actually reminded me to stay close. The time I spent in the Sunshine State reminded me of the shine that can only be found when you take time to “lay out” in the present state of....
