Summer is quickly coming to an end. The crisp chill of Fall is in
the air and things are beginning to slow down. Feeling a bit
uncertain during times of change is common. No matter how we may try
to position the change to ourselves and others, the result is the
same: fear, sadness, guilt, shame or even anger. Just as night
becomes day; change will occur on a regular basis. Some change

A few years ago I read that people of Scandinavia are the most

packed their bags and headed there. I wonder with the influx of

which after 150 year British rule, the 5th & 6th
generation of the American Colonists saw a prospect of freedom. The
prosperity of the colonies gave way to the idea of self government,

to us as well. But, we are confronted with another fact that things

You may not

life. If we believe the wrong thing, then our lives follow that
course out of the will of God. But when we fully understand that God
is for us, loves us and has blessed us with every spiritual blessing,
then our lives begin to develop according to God will.

How well do you know
the Lord? When you hear something from the Word of God does your
heart rejoice or does it make you feel bad or ashamed? This is a
quick indicator of your heart condition and relationship with the
Lord. If you have an intimate relationship with Him, every word is a
blessing and you will receive it with joy. But if you don't, then
every word sounds like a curse.

We hear the word
“faith” all the time. It means different things to different
people. Most people think of faith as a place as in “house of
faith” or a teaching or doctrine. The worldly meaning of faith is
trusting in the physical, what can be seen—but the true meaning of
faith is trust in God – our creator, our mentor, our savior, who
can not be seen with our natural eyes.

It has been awhile
since I have posted. I have been on a faith mission of sorts,
pressing in on God and seeking to grow my relationship with Him. It's
been a fabulous journey full of blessing and discovery. I've tested
what God has said in His Word and it's all true. Every word is a
treasure, every purpose a blessing.

In this search for the “narrow
path”(Matthew 7:14) I've come across a very interesting aspect of
God, everything He does is by grace. When God created, He created by
grace. When God blesses, He blesses by grace. So what is grace?

The good news is that God has never
left us. I've heard some false teaching that God walked away from
mankind after the sin in the garden. Then I've heard people teach if
we seek Him and if we are especially good that maybe, just maybe He
will have mercy on us and let us live or better yet, let us into

corrects us, causes us to pause and assess what is important to us.

we learn of our need for a Savior. The first family, Adam and Eve
were placed in the garden of God. In this perfect sinless
environment, God walked with them and gave them the ground rules of
freedom and relationship with Him. They were allowed anything but to
taste the fruit from the tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil.
