In the middle of all that is happening in our current age, it is easy to get discouraged. It is easy to slip into despondency as we watch sin run unchecked so often, as people seem to just do as they please. Violence, hatred, crime, and so forth, leave a bitter taste as we watchContinue reading “How Long?”

A Fierce Friend
The World is a harsh place. It is self-centered and self-exhalting, where everyone is for himself and himself alone. It is a place where people are prepared to destroy any who get in their way, as each person grasps for success, fame, or money. The pile of bodies grows higher and higher as people clawContinue reading “A Fierce Friend”
For The Cause
Life is hard. It batters and bruises, and tries to destroy at every turn. Most weeks end with us feeling as if we are hanging on by a thread, as we stare down the gloomy abyss of a new day, another Monday, another start to a long week. Some weeks leave us scrounging for joyContinue reading “For The Cause”
To The Lonely Heart
Loneliness is a hard battle to fight. It is tiring, draining, and discouraging. It takes you through dark places and through deep valleys. It is a silent battle. But mostly, it is a battle you do, alone. This is one of the main reasons why loneliness is so intense. You can be surrounded by friendsContinue reading “To The Lonely Heart”
This Is War
This one statement is so absolutely true for every Christian. This truly is a war. From the moment you become mentally conscious in the morning to the moment you fall asleep, (and at times, even in your dreams), you are engaging in a war.

But in that moment, something beautiful happens. We see the mighty God choose to become Man, to save you from the path you yourself have chosen. He plucks your rotting corpse from the filth as He breathes life into your dead lungs. He removes your hard, cold heart of stone and in its place HeContinue reading “Why Will You Die: Part 2”
Why Will You Die: Part 1
Imagine this. You’re hosting a fancy dinner that has taken you days to prepare. You’ve gone all out. You’ve provided exquisite food, paired with expensive and rare wines. You’ve decorated your dining room with beautiful table settings and linen, sparing no expense to make your guests feel comfortable. As the time to eat approaches, youContinue reading “Why Will You Die: Part 1”
For You
Faithful people are hard to come by. Even trustworthy people have broken promises. In a broken world, trust is earned slowly and can be lost in a single moment of failure. Even important and powerful people break their word. Presidents who promise a total reform fail to fulfill their word, and when those who desireContinue reading “For You”
To the Uttermost
The boat dipped and fell with each swell of the waves. Terrified, the people on the boat tried in vain to control their vessel as the heavy wind battered them mercilessly. To add to the terror of this moment, they could see a figure walking, not on the land, but the water itself. They wereContinue reading “To the Uttermost”
