Pro 16:22 Whoever is slow to anger is better than the
mighty,
and he who rules his spirit than he who takes a city.
Our Lord has provided us guidance in how we live our day to
day lives. He gives us example after example of how we are to both interact
with and treat others. Unfortunately, we have a weakness where we to quickly
give in to some sins. One sin high up the food chain is anger. Juliankandyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06218077048870899949noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2214004079787806576.post-60998527802116929672018-11-07T19:32:00.002-07:002018-11-07T19:35:36.386-07:00Luke 14:1-6
In Luke chapter 14 we see that Jesus had
been going through a long discourse giving numerous examples of the wickedness
of the human heart and the heart specifically of the pharisees. As we read, I
want you to ask yourself the “why” questions.Questions like, what is Jesus' aim? What is
his point? Why is he asking that? Why did he say that? Hopefully Christ will
take this time open our hearts toJuliankandyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06218077048870899949noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2214004079787806576.post-68340096176199948602016-10-16T20:10:00.000-07:002016-10-16T20:10:06.827-07:00The Chicken or the Egg Conundrum...
You all have heard the question asked, "What came first, the chicken or the egg?" The answers will always vary on whom you're conversing with, but there can only be one truth- yes. Well you may ask, "What do you mean by saying 'yes'?" What I mean is that the chicken comes purposed with the egg within. Just like humanity is purposed from the foundation of the world to roll one of two Juliankandyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06218077048870899949noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2214004079787806576.post-67786703245497418312013-12-14T09:56:00.000-07:002013-12-14T09:56:41.534-07:001 Thessalonians 5:9

Here in this teaching (chapter 5), Paul is reminding
the believers at Thessalonica of the return of the Lord. The blatant consistency of what Jesus taught in
the Gospels down to what Paul is saying here is fascinating. There is no lacking, there is no difference-

Romans 9:18 Therefore hath he mercy on whom he will have mercy, and whom he will he hardeneth.
Here, Paul is in the midst of explaining the way God chooses His children. Many would find that a funny saying because the world is quick to say in a very non-threatening manner that we, "are all children of god!"

It's been awhile- too long- since I last posted. I have to say that I miss it. Life for me in the last two years has had its fair share of ups and downs- even a crazy lull. But, "Times, they are a changing..." Needless to say that Christ has not left me, nor have I left Him. If you stick around long enough you"ll see me post more and more as I used to.

I had to let you go
Your desires cost me more than I could ever know
Yet you still call to me with a whisper in the ear
Every corner that I turn I feel you oh so near
My mind habitually worked against me when it relished in your touch
Your scent drove me wild, your gaze made me smile; you became to me a crutch
You held me in your bosom and softly spoke of what could be
You gave me the grandest Juliankandyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06218077048870899949noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2214004079787806576.post-6037433235252052532011-06-26T12:52:00.000-07:002011-06-26T12:52:42.307-07:00Dear Sin:I had to let you go

I think it is nothing more than an attempt to get struggling pastors to take their focus off of Christ and to put their monies into someone else's pockets. However, every true minister of God knows that it is God that provides the increase.

As a right leaning conservative, with a view that the majority of right leaning conservatives are Christian, I ask, "Could this be a step in the direction of bringing biblical Christianity to a place of persecution in America?" Think about it. The government labels anyone with right-leaning, conservative values as a potential terrorist.
