Time, Part 1

In my life, right now:

Time has falling by the wayside – The contract that sent me to South Africa back in October ended near the end of December. During the following four weeks as I searched for another contract or job, I entered into a time of intense prayer, fasting and bible study. I am [...]

Worship: I Worship You, Almighty God

I worship You, Almighty God
There is none like You
I worship You, O Prince of Peace
That is what I want to do
I give You praise
For You are My righteousness
I worship You, Almighty God
There is none like You

Wishlist: Complete Jewish Bible

I perusing through the religious section of Downtown Fort Worth’s Barnes & Nobles and secretly giggling that Christianity and Eastern Religions are two separate categories.
But that is a topic for another post.
However, in my browsing, I came across this little gem.
I gleed and whoa-ed as I thumb through the pages.  Seeing the names of Avraham [...]

The Art of Smiling

Terrific article I found at one of my favorite sites, ThinkSimpleNow.com:

“… so why then is it that when we cross paths with a stranger or casual acquaintance in the elevator, we give them a fake smile? That ‘polite smile’. You know what I’m talking about (don’t get me wrong, I do this too, unconscious at [...]

Illegal Immigrants

I wanted to blog this so that I can remember it later on.

Leviticus 19:33-34  ‘And if a stranger dwells with you in your land, you shall not mistreat him. The stranger who dwells among you shall be to you as one born among you, and you shall love him as yourself; for you were strangers [...]

Senator’s Inquiry Into Megachurch Money Hypocrisy Sparks Church-State Showdown
This inquiry is old news but I am interested to see what comes out of this. I only pray for true justice to be had. Either you are tax-exempt or you are not. It is really that simple.
Something in this article that really warms the cockles of [...]

Yet Another Site Redesign

From the same guy who created the theme for my anti-myspace myspace page comes this simple and sleek theme for Wordpress Blogs.
While I am not totally satisfied with it, I believe I am on the right course into creating something that I am going to like for a very long time.
One of the very reasons [...]

True Meaning Of Love?

Dear John,

I have been unable to sleep since I broke off our engagement. I was such a fool. Please forgive me. Your absence is breaking my heart. Nobody could ever take your place. I love you with all my heart.

Please take me back into your heart, Wilma.
P.S. Congratulations on winning this week’s lottery.

I promise, faithful [...]

Do You Go To Church?

My brother started dating this one particular woman and the first thing her parents asked was, “Does he go to church?”.
What do we mean by this question? Are we actually caring about the person’s soul at this moment? Are we actually asking if that their spirit has been risen by their faith in Christ Jesus [...]

I Am Not Doing Enough

This is not a play just on faith per James 2:17. Rather, this is my entire life up until this point.
The fact that I have been ignoring my calling for last ten years will not be undone without lots and lots of hard work. (To even say I have ignored God for all of that [...]
