love.
September 28, 2009love is underrated.
we brush it off as it’s a superficial post-it note.
But remember the post-it note was birthed from the person who tried to invent the world’s strongest glue.
You know what GLUE stands for?
God Loves Us Extravagantly.
Sometimes we pursue vain possessions – The good job, the dream house, survival.
We think love only hinders us.
Love can’t place food on the table, you can’t eat love.
Then pray tell me we did they crucified Love on Calvary’s Tree?
Why did we pierce those nail through his hands and legs? Was it because we were so blind not to see the power of His Love?
But Love prevailed anyway, through His death we’re set free.
Do I love Jesus? My answer, He still loves me more.

the fear.
September 24, 2009Every time a person gives up hope and turns cynical and bitter, it’s because he or she is fearful.
Fear fogs faith; fear is like the smoke that gets into your eyes obscuring you from the light of hope. It’s not hard to believe, but fear makes you think it is very hard to do so.
…So each time you are bitter or unhappy or you develop negative feelings towards something or someone, remember it’s the enemy infecting your heart with fear.
Adam hid because he was afraid…
The original sin resulted in the first fear. From then on fear became commonplace as the world fell from glory.
But, with redemption and through the blood of the lamb, Jesus. God has promise freedom from fear, and an impartation of power, love and a sound mind.
We fear to find a solution, sometimes we even fear losing the fear.
But the solution finds us and rescues us.
…Do not fear, He said – And one of his disciples found faith to ask for a chance walk on the water with him.
