Mustard Seed…

Mustard Seed… When I attending AA meetings 3-4+ times a week it was not uncommon to hear someone discussing their faith being the “size of a mustard seed and blossoming…” What will happen to our lives as our faith grows? What will happen if our faith dries up? I heard it said recently, and wrote about this topic, that people, all people, will worship something. We can worship whatever we wish, however, we will worship something. Faith in Jesus Christ the size of a mustard size makes nothing impossible for…

Our Nation Bleeds…

Our Nation Bleeds… Once in a while you get shown the Light, in the strangest of places if you look at it right. ~Robert Hunter Charlie Daniels shares at least one prayer or two prayers a week, sometimes a lot more. This one hit me pretty hard and it may have an effect on you as well. Morning prayerLord, it seems we’ve lost the identity we once had , compassion and righteousness have been replaced by greed and expediency, patriotism by political correctness and truth and morality by fable and…

Division – Social Engineering – Mercy

Division – Social Engineering – Mercy Matthew 12 CSB 24 When the Pharisees heard this, they said, “This man drives out demons only by Beelzebul, the ruler of the demons.” 25 Knowing their thoughts, he told them: “Every kingdom divided against itself is headed for destruction, and no city or house divided against itself will stand. 26 If Satan drives out Satan, he is divided against himself. How then will his kingdom stand? 27 And if I drive out demons by Beelzebul, by whom do your sons drive them out?…

“Why are you speaking to them in parables?”

“Why are you speaking to them in parables?” Matthew 13 CSB 10 Then the disciples came up and asked him, “Why are you speaking to them in parables?” 11 He answered, “Because the secrets of the kingdom of heaven have been given for you to know, but it has not been given to them. 12 For whoever has, more will be given to him, and he will have more than enough; but whoever does not have, even what he has will be taken away from him 13 That is why…

Where Do You Sow?

Where Do You Sow? For me this could go in many directions regarding sowing. Friends, family and seed. Where is one at the time this applies? What type of scenario does this impact? It seemingly applies to a great many different situations we encounter, perhaps even daily. Matthew 13 CSB 3 Then he told them many things in parables, saying: “Consider the sower who went out to sow. 4 As he sowed, some seed fell along the path, and the birds came and devoured them. 5 Other seed fell on…

John The Baptist…Questions

John The Baptist…Questions GNN Note – This is an important passage to my journey as it ties into one of the previous teachings where Jesus ask the tax collector to “follow me” and the tax collector stopped what he was doing and followed Jesus. Here we find John the Baptist, the person clearing the way for the Son of God, who has not only been following but has been, literally, clearing the path but he still has a question. Amazing. Matthew 11 – CSB 1 When Jesus had finished giving…

From Leprosy to Healing

From Leprosy to Healing Matthew 8 What is remarkable about the teachings of Jesus is how He continually references what is commonly known as the “Old Testament”. We see this in todays devotional when Jesus tells the man with leprosy to go to the priest and “…offer the gift that Moses commanded…”  Christ is also seen fulfilling the prophesy as is written later in this same chapter…. He himself took our weaknesses and carried our diseases. Do the “weaknesses and disease” represent our sins and brokenness? A Man Cleansed CSB 1 When he…
