How Bad Do You Want It

At the beginning of the year people tend to make resolutions; pledges or plans they would like to achieve.  These are things they have been thinking about but have never been able to accomplish.  People talk about quitting smoking, losing weight they gained during the holidays, eating healthier, taking on a new hobby, working on their relationship, going on vacation, etc.  How many of us would include in our list growing in in your relationship with Christ?

Purpose in Trials

Sometimes we wonder why God allows certain things to happen; things like pain and suffering. Job’s suffering was a test to his integrity; but he chose to worship God even in the midst of pain and suffering. He never cursed God for the things God allowed in his life. We struggle with the question, why does God allow pain and suffering in this world? Why do you and I go through rough times in this world?

Jesus – A Foundation or Ruin

Everything you do is determined by a belief or beliefs, certain principles. How you make sense of the world if governed by your beliefs. These beliefs become the foundation of your worldview (the platform from which you stand to make sense of the world). Every society is governed by principles which are the foundations upon which nations are built.

The most important part of a building is the foundation, if the foundation is not strong, it doesn’t matter how beautiful the building is.
