It is still murder!!

If he is not alive,
why is he growing?

If he is not a human being,
what kind of being is he?

If he is not a child
why is he sucking his thumb?

If he is a living, human child,
why is it legal to kill him?

On The Rock

"I may tremble on the Rock, but the Rock never trembles under me." 

Charles R. Swindoll

Does God write Poetry?

Yes, you are a poem, written by the hand of Almighty God.   The etymology of the word "poem" goes back to the greek "poiema".  

"Poiema" is found in the Greek New Testament book of Ephesians chapter 2 verse 10 which translated to English reads, "For we are God's workmanship (poiema), created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do."

Yes, you are God's poem in progress.  It won't be finished until it is presented at His throne in Heaven without any imperfections whatsoever.

Don't Tell God!!

A missionary colleague posted this on Facebook.  It's the kind of things I like to get and to pass on to others.

"Don't tell God how big your problems are.  Tell your problems how big your God is."

Troubling Thoughts?

---and the peace of God ...will guard your hearts.


"---whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is of good report, if there is any excellence and if anything worthy of praise, DWELL on these things."    


---and the God of peace will be with you.

What Prayer Is NOT

"Prayer is not us giving God free advise on how to run His universe."

Common Sense

The problem with common sense is

that it is not common.
