Knowing Me Is Not Enough

But Lord I studied your scripture daily.  I know you did son… but where is the love?  I attended your worship weekly.  I know you did… but where is the love?  But I gave more than my share of your money.  I know… but where is the love?  I worked in your fields to help.  I know… but where is the love.  None of that matters without pure, unbridled love for others. Like I give to you.  Did you do all of that simply because you love ME? That’s easy!  More important did you love my flock as much, if not more, than you loved yourself?  Without unmeasurable love for all of my children the rest is without meaning.  Why is it so hard to pass on what I freely give to you?

I Love You!

Don’t Need Proof!

As we toured the museum, and the replica of Noahs’ Ark, a strange feeling came over me.  I was almost ashamed, at the amount of money the founder had spent, in an effort to prove his point and disprove another.  He had invested millions, with the purpose of trying to prove that the word of…

My Hearts Prayer!

My eyes have not beheld what my heart so clearly sees.  Daily I reach for you… knowing that your hand will be there to guide me.  To welcome me.  I rest in the comfort that your light will shine… to lead… where my life must follow.  That your love will bring freedom to my soul,…

Human AND Divine!

Why does everything have to be either human or divine?  Are we not made in his image?  We believe that being human means we have to earn our way to being divine.  Are we not already divine by the holy spirit? Then why do we work so hard to earn his love?  Don’t we already…
