Titus 3:3-6 (NKJV) 3 For we ourselves were also once foolish, disobedient, deceived, serving various lusts and pleasures, living in malice and envy, hateful and hating one another. 4 But when the kindness and the love of God our Savior toward man appeared, 5 not by works of righteousness which...

I have had a bluebird house for many years now. This year it resulted in three families being raised [a family normally consists in about 4-5 eggs]. Now it is the fall season and too late for them to start a new family. However, it does not keep them from coming around to lay claim to the house...

When scripture speaks of election, or “God's Elect”, what does this mean? I have seen posts which indicate that “God loves all and does not show favoritism”. So, does this indicated that the entire world is included in the “Elect of God” or does it speak of only God's chosen people? If it...

You would think that since I live in Texas, I would be more careful when it comes to chiggers, but you would be thinking wrong. You see, chiggers are sneaky little creatures. They are generally not around in the fall, are long gone in winter, and it's pretty safe in the spring up until late...

It is always refreshing to read scripture which give us an assurance of God's Pardoning Graces! I'll start it off by posting Romans 5:20-21 20 Now the law came in to increase the trespass, but where sin increased, grace abounded all the more, 21 so that, as sin reigned in death, grace also...

Rock Me to Sleep Elizabeth Akers Allen 1832 -1911 Backward, turn backward, O Time, in your flight, Make me a child again just for tonight! Mother, come back from the echoless shore, Take me again to your heart as of yore; Kiss from my forehead the furrows of care, Smooth the few silver threads...

Perhaps it is time to look at the humanity of Christ as well as his deity! I am sure that this has been discussed before, since it is very important to see both sides. Therefore, using the AI that I was born with, I have gathered below some thoughts on this subject. They are not my words, but...

Today was a busy day, so on the way back home I stopped at a Subway Sandwich Shop to get something to eat. I was greeted by a nice young lady who promptly made my sandwich then went to the register to collect payment. This is where the trouble began. She keyed in my order and told me...

We are instructed to fear the Lord: Deuteronomy 10:12-22 “And now, Israel, what does the Lord your God require of you, but to fear the Lord your God, to walk in all His ways and to love Him, to serve the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul, and to keep the commandments of...

I wonder, when do you think the idea of using buttons happened? This morning as I got up, putting my my shirt on in the dark, this question popped into my mind. Please take some time to think about it, and without doing any research, give me your thoughts on the subject. Did the person who...

Among my first abilities as a child – was to believe that “if I cried, someone would hear and feed me”, or “someone would change my diaper”! Later, after becoming more mature my ability also increased. When I saw something I liked – I simply screamed MINE, MINE, MINE... Later, after maturing...

Children in Colonial America used to learn this truth when they learned their alphabet in the New England Primer, when they said, “In Adam's fall, we sinned all”. If this is true, how different are the things being taught today! Our early history as a country was indeed wise when it came to...

What Changed? Assuming that you are a child of God, What was the event that resulted in this change? All people are conceived in sin and are born children of wrath, unfit for any saving good, inclined to evil, dead in their sins, and slaves to sin; without the grace of the regenerating Holy...
