Real worship

By on April 26, 2012 in Musings
We worship God when, while we partake of his good gifts, something occurs in the deepest parts of our soul that forbids terminating on the gift itself or on our enjoyment of it but that runs deeper into and extends out to the Giver.
"The Explicit Gospel" by Matt Chandler

I’m not skilled to understand

By on March 3, 2012 in Random
I am not skilled to understand
What God has willed, what God has planned
I only know at His right hand
Stands one who is my Savior

I take Him at His word and deed
Christ died to save me; this I read
And in my heart I find a need
Of Him to be my savior

That He would leave His place on high
And come for sinful man to die
You count it strange, so once did I
Before I knew my Savior

My Savior loves, My Savior lives
My Savior's always there for me
My God: He was, my God; He is
My God is always gonna be
Aaron Shust

Do Something… Let us win souls… Get to work and quit yourselves like men

By on February 16, 2012 in Random
In every minister's life there should be traces of stern labour. Brethren, do something; do something; DO SOMETHING. While Committees waste their time over resolutions, do something. While Societies and Unions are making constitutions, let us win souls. Too often we discuss, and discuss, and discuss, while Satan only laughs in his sleeve... Get to work and quit yourselves like men
Charles Spurgeon

Ha, this is detox rhyming
Only pride, we love is the pride full of lions
They can't stop His shine, He so amazing
The Son rose for some daylight savings

A Holiday Confession from Ben Stein

By on December 6, 2011 in Lifestream
I am a Jew, and every single one of my ancestors was Jewish. And it does not bother me even a little bit when people call those beautiful lit up, bejeweled trees Christmas trees. I don't feel threatened. I don't feel discriminated against. That's what they are: Christmas trees. It doesn't bother me a bit when people say, "Merry Christmas" to me. I don't think they are slighting me or getting ready to put me in a ghetto. In fact, I kind of like it. It shows that we are all brothers and sisters celebrating this happy time of year. It doesn't bother me at all that there is a manger scene on display at a key intersection near my beach house in Malibu.
Ben Stein

Herewith at this happy time of year, a few confessions from my beating heart: I have no freaking clue who Nick and Jessica are. I see them on the cover of People and Us constantly when I am buying my dog biscuits and kitty litter. I often ask the checkers at the grocery stores. They [...]

You broke through my deafness
You flashed and you shone
Dispelled all my blindness
You breathed Your fragrance on me
You breathed Your fragrance on me
Late have I loved You

Late have I loved you - Gungor

Weakness or Sin?

By on November 2, 2011 in Lifestream
We must differentiate between being unable to do something because of WEAKNESS and being unwilling to do something because of SIN.
Unknown

In the same letter in response to what she learnt in the Psychiatric Disorders Conference she also wrote: The absence of symptoms and/or the ability to live without medication are NOT markers of “success” – success is growing in the likeness of Christ…loving God and others better. I need to redefine success.

My Servant King

By on November 1, 2011 in Musings
Hands that flung stars into space, To cruel nails surrendered
Graham Kendrick

He is beautiful. The Creator God, the one who formed the earth, who flung the stars in to space, would willingly surrender Himself  and cruelly suffer at the hands of His own creation He came down to save.

Yes I’m loved, and I’m pursued

By on October 18, 2011 in Random
Yes I'm loved, and I'm pursued
And though I can't feel it, still I know that it's true
Somebody woke me up, and yeah, I know it was you
And yet I keep tryin' to steer clear of your view
Cause if you get me, I know that you got me
But I'm so insecure I can't believe that you want me
But then I heard you went on your way to adopt me
Well you can have my all if you swear you won't drop me

Only by Him do I see

By on October 9, 2011 in Random

C.S. Lewis
