As Christians, we rejoice when we accept Jesus into our hearts. When Jesus lives in our hearts, the heart of Jesus lives there also.

When we act from the heart, whose heart are we acting from?

Stories ... We all have one ...

Isaiah 20:2- At that time the Lord spoke by Isaiah the son of Amoz, saying, “Go, and loose the sackcloth from your waist and take off your sandals from your feet,” and he did so, walking naked and barefoot. In this passage God sends Isaiah to give a warning to Israel. In addition to using words, God instructs Isaiah to do something more. God instructs him to walk naked and barefoot for three years! Certainly, Isaiah felt uncomfortable about what he was being called to do, but remained obedient. The message, Isaiah was delivering far outweighed the embarrassment of being uncovered. Sometimes when we feel the prompting of God’s Spirit to share how Jesus has changed our lives we may feel uncomfortable with what God is asking us to do. We may feel embarrassed or ashamed to “expose” our past to others for fear that we may be ridiculed or rejected if people knew what we would rather keep hidden. We all hav...

Great!

Psalm 145:3 Great is the LORD and most worthy of praise; his greatness no one can fathom. All throughout history there have been men and woman who were considered great for one reason or another. Thomas Edison was a great inventor; Madame Curie, a great scientist; Michael Jordan, a great basketball player. Those who grew up in the 30’s and 40’s are said to be of the Greatest Generation. And I can’t forget - Al and Martha Thuente are great parents (I ought to know – they’re mine)! Usually what makes a person great is his or her accomplishments or reputation of doing good things. But a person’s deeds and goodness have a limit. No matter how great someone is, he can only know so much, can do so much, can give so much, because his wisdom, ability and resources are finite. Greatness can only be so great. When we think of God, his greatness is limitless. Even the greatest of men could not have created...

Cardboard Prison

When I was very young I would often sit in a corner and think. It wasn’t because I was in trouble – I was just a very introspective kind of person, even as a child. And often my dad would ask, “What are you doing, Mary?” “Oh, just thinking.” “What are you thinking about?” “Ooh, nothing…” “Well, how do you know when you’re finished?” and I’d usually let out a little giggle, and be off to do something else. It is often said that the times that people are most reflective about their lives is during times of stillness, when in the quiet all they have is their thoughts. Imagine with me if you will, that we are peering into thoughts of someone who is in that place of reflection. Now before we go there, let me say that this person whose thoughts we are about to delve into IS NOT ME. It is a fictional person we’ll call Alex. Alex can be representative of anybody. So without further ado, let’s see w...
