PASSION # 2

Recall our last BLOG: PASSION. We stated that the P stood for Purposeful Pursuit and we referenced Deuteronomy 4:29. Our “A” in PASSION stands for: Absolute Abandon: “Love the LORD your God with all your heart, with all your soul and with all your strength. These...

PASSION # 1

I have a friend who adores Acrostics. So in the next few weeks we are going to look at the meaning of PASSION and Who and what our Lord desires us to be PASSIONATE about. You see, I am not talking about the passion of “first love.” Nor am I speaking about the passion...

REMEMBER # 10

Today I just want us to pause and reflect. I want us to remember. I want us to remember Who Jesus is. I want us to remember who we are! I want us to remember our Lord’s goodness. Remember His patience. Remember His love. Remember His perfection. Reflect upon His...

REMEMBER # 5

Remembering is a two-way street, or at least should be, for all believers. As our heavenly Father, God will never forget us and will always be faithful to His promises. We should make a “practice of remembering”, “a practice of thanksgiving” offered to our Lord for...

REMEMBER # 4

Women here in Burkina Faso have been treated as “objects” and “possessions” for centuries! They have never read or heard of being created in the image of God! They do not know that our Jesus values them to such a degree that He died and rose again to give them...

REMEMBER # 3

Those of us with nieces, nephews, children, grandchildren…we are well versed in hearing, “Did you remember to get cereal? Did you remember the dry cleaning? Did you remember to pay for my field trip…Did you remember, remember, remember..?” In our walk with our Lord...
