FAITH IS LOVE










Ye are all the children of light, and the children of the day: we are not of the night, nor of darkness.



Therefore let us not sleep, as do others; but let us watch and be sober.



For they that sleep sleep in the night; and they that are drunken are drunken in the night.



But let us, who are of the day, be sober, putting on the breastplate of faith and love; and for a helmet, the hope of salvation .



Thessalonians 5 vs 5-8






I love Sundays as I've mentioned before, but today even though the temperature was perfect the day brought gray skies . My old friend Melancholy paid me a visit, and I was quick to let him in, but in the nick of time my new best friends Hope and Thanksgiving came to the rescue, shutting the door soundly against Melancholy and his companions worry, fear, and doubt .



Not every day will be filled with sunshine; lifelong happiness is something we have to work towards daily . The next time negativity comes knocking at your door, don't answer, he doesn't like being ignored and will eventually get tired and go away .

THIS I KNOW IS TRUE

“ We all like stars floating through the night,  Flit from place to place trying to find our proper orientation-our alignment-...like a moth drawn to the flame of a distant fire we find our homing beacon: our true flame, It pulses and beckons us to begin again, Rising through the night and stirring within us an instinct as eternal as time, What happens when two stars collide? Could you be my supernova? “ There is not much that I know of this world which is vast in mysteries I must admit, but the things that I do know for a fact resonate within me because of thier truth. The existential question of why we were created is not an easy one to answer, and I’m sure it ranks up there as one of the top questions on most people’s minds-mine as well. Along with finding one’s purpose, and being true to what you believe. However there is some thing that I do know to be true. It is love which is unfailingly unconditional; it is a love which allows you to look beyond illusions, and find the thin...

Blindsided

Sometimes the things you don’t see coming in life can blindside you the most: such as a family member being diagnosed with one of those scary words, that somewhere in the back of your mind you thought was reserved for TV medical dramas. I’ve learned that God is so much bigger than any fear that may try to creep into our heart. We’re human: flesh, and blood, God remembers our frame that we are dust...but He is eternal, our God who gives strength to the weak, and power to the powerless. I remember at what felt like my most hopeless moment, in a pit of disbelief at what was happening around me, and feeling so utterly alone, suddenly I could feel God’s Presence, palpably...it felt like I was surrounded totally, in His arms. The angst, and worry flew away, and I was completely at peace, and felt I could get through the rest of the day. Jesus is the Prince of Peace, and is available to give us this comfort if we will come to Him. We don’t have to have it all together. Perhaps in your momen...

And The Sun Shines Down

And the sun shines down, Sending all it's warmth into my heart, Spreading it's delicious rays through out my body like the sweetest syrup, I lift my face the better to feel the tantalizing sensations, I can't stop this smile from taking over, I smile, and I smile, and I smile, And just for a split second I eclipse the sun,
