What if I told you that Having cancer is a highlight of my life? Do you think that’s true or false? Or maybe you think I’ve lost it? Well, it’s absolutely true. Seriously. It really has been.
2023.01.12 Psalms 010 – Complain about God to God
Complain about God to God? Is that a good thing? How many of us are afraid to complain to God about Himself? Or think that’s a bad thing to do? Maybe even a sin? On the other hand, how many of us are so angry about our issues with God, valid or not, that we don’t hesitate to make a list of our complaints and then “let Him have it”?
2023.01.09 Psalms 007 – If we don’t trust God then who will save us?
The Bible tells us that God says “vengeance is mine”. But even Christians are people. And people tend to want to get our own revenge. So it leaves us with a bit of a problem. Sometimes a huge problem. If we don’t trust God to get the revenge He claims as His own, then do we even trust God to save us? And if not God, then who will save us?
2023.01.07 Psalms 005 – Take refuge and be glad?
Seriously? Take refuge and be glad? Aren’t we fighters? Can’t we take care of ourselves? Why should we settle for just taking refuge instead of going on a counterattack?
2023.01.06 Psalms 004 – Feel God’s peace even when things are bad
Christians talk about God’s peace. Do things need to be going well in order to feel that peace? Or can we feel God’s peace when things start to improve? Or, would you believe, can we feel His peace even if nothing’s changed about our situation at all?
Does it help to lift up cancer to Jesus?
What do you do when you have cancer, and it’s Christmas, with all sorts of happy joyful people? But hey, is that really the question? Shouldn’t it really be, what do you do when you have cancer, and the world goes on? Does it really matter whether or not it’s Christmas? The core question remains. Does it help to lift up cancer to Jesus?
A conversation with Jesus on Christmas
The following is a Christmas conversation with Jesus. Many of us Christians have had this conversation. Maybe not all of it. But certainly, parts of it. Maybe not out loud. But in our heads, almost certainly.
The Parable of the Fruitless Fig Tree – repent or perish
When you read it, the concept of the tree without fruit and the warning of repent or perish makes sense. Well, it should make sense to Christians. However, I believe there’s more to it than we might think.
Do politically active Christians understand the armor of God?
Do politically active Christians understand the armor of God? Judging by the words from Ron DeSantis and people’s reactions to those words, I’m sad to say that, in far too many cases, the answer is no.
If God is for us, who can be against us?
If God is for us, who can be against us? It’s a question that sounds like the answer is “No one can be against us if God is for us!” At least it’s probably an answer some Christians agree with. But guess what? That’s not the right answer. Come to think of it, it’s not even the right question. Even if it is a quote from the Bible and a line from a popular Christian song.
