    I want to love Jesus

    Beautiful and heartfelt words. Thank you for posting. Forgiving myself has always the hardest part for me. I wonder what Jesus thinks about that?

    Some thoughts on prayer

    We sometime forget one of the greatest gifts God gave man; our ability to pray: In pray we acknowledge God’s existence We do not burst into prayer to a rock or a tree or to any idol, but consciously or unconsciously, we identify the creator. We instinctively reach out to the one who holds...

    What are you dreams/goals in your life?

    I am getting closer and closer to the end, more than I want to be! Somewhere in the back of my mind I believed there was a purpose in my life, some event or opportunity that would come along and make everything worth while. Something would eventually make an impact. A light is beginning to...

    Desiring the truth vs. loving the truth

    I'm having difficulty understanding how one can, "...desperately desire the truth, but without love of the truth." I understand how we can seek truth and then reject what we find, but something gave us the desire to seek truth in the first place. (This is prevenient grace). Can we really...

    Walking on the water

    I once read a comment that this event was not really about too little faith. Peter did get out of the boat and walk. The "little faith" comment is actually referencing a faith that is too short, had no endurance. Peter started strong but could not endure. This changed my view of the whole...

    Shepherd Us Through The Valley

    I liked Ave Maria a Trasbordo and The Last Effort of the Day and am a little fascinated with his symbolic connections of mothers and trees. Interesting.

    Shepherd Us Through The Valley

    Love the art. I looked up other Segantini works. I can relate to some of his painting but others are way over my head. It was worth the time.

    Is it OK if Christians Buy the Lotto?

    The people who run government lotteries sell false hope to those who feel hopeless. They profit on the misery of the lowly and the poor. They do this for their own power and advantage. I know some will sat they play reasonably for the fun, some also play from addiction while neglecting...

    Is it OK if Christians Buy the Lotto?

    When you gamble, no matter the format, you are trying to place your interests above the interests of others. This is a great time to check your heart.

    A Question

    First, welcome to CC Wrecked. I see you are a relatively new member and I hope your experience here improves. CC can be a challenge at times but there are many people here who do really try to follow God's commands and love each other. Sometimes in the heat of battle we forget Paul's...

    Significant Books?

    The Pursuit of God** A. W. Tozer This is my all-time favorite from the list. In Tozer’s own words “This book is a modest attempt to aid God’s hungry children to find Him.” I have read this little book nearly twenty times and still look forward to yet another review. Tozer ends every...

    DO YOU THINK THE CHRUCH TODAY HAS ANY POWER?

    I believe much of the western church has so perverted the truth that they have little power. Many are unable even to sustain themselves. However, I take solace in the assembly of believing people, stretching back through the centuries, each pursuing God's will as best they can, building just...
