EVERLASTING LOVE!

Radical Reconstruction   Rejoice and be exceedingly glad , for great is your reward in heaven , for so they persecuted the prophets who were before you.

Anger shows up, and we let him in. Revenge needs a place to stay, so we have him pull up a chair. Pity wants to have a party, so we show him the kitchen. Lust rings the bell, and we change the sheets on the bed. Don't we know how to say no ? Many don't. For most of us, thought management is, well, unthought-of. We think much about time management, weight management, personnel management, even scalp management. But what about thought management? Shouldn't we be as concerned about managing our thoughts as we are managing anything else? Jesus was. Like a trained soldier at the gate of a city, He stood watch over His mind. He stubbornly guarded the gateway of His heart.... If He did, shou...

What you feed grows! (Feed your spirit with the Word of God and godly things so that God can get the glory.) What you starve dies! (Starve the ungodly desires of the flesh so that it will submit easily to the Spirit of God) (Psalms 119:11) Your word I have hidden in my heart, That I might not sin against You.
