Grace, mercy and peace are three things that: I desperately need from God in order to deal with my SIN However I could not earn any of them, so it is must be a free undeserved GIFT from God to me. Mercy is God helping me BENEFIT from the consequences of my sin and others […]
WHAT WAS ADAM’S “APPLE”?
This is a tough blog post. I did not like what the Holy Spirit had to say to me as I wrote it, so if you are not wanting all of God and all of his blessing and a real relationship with him, then please don’t read any further. You will just become defensive and […]
I. Ask God, “please teach me!” James 1,5 II. Watch for the triggers of my bad reaction, in the upcoming events of the following days, expecting him to teach III. Have a bad reaction. (Pretty easy huh?) To react with stinking-thinking, foolish-feelings, awful-actions. (WE may now pick from the following popular options or invent our own,: […]
STRESS MANAGEMENT
Worry is something we take! So how much worry should I invest in tomorrow? None? Not even for Food or Clothing? Does God want me to run around naked and starving? No! That is precisely why it is a waste of energy to worry about these things–my heavenly father knows that I need these. Besides, […]

INIQUITY = Deciding for myself what is right, doing this “right” in my own strength and moaning and groaning about how hard it is to do “good” so that we get extra credit from others. In the middle of your brain is a device known as the limbic system which God intends to fill you […]
The Lord has helped me not to want anyone to agree with me. As Paul says “Who is Paul?who is Appollos? For that matter who is Verle? It is the Lord that counts, I hope that they discern God’s thought and AGREE WITH HIM. I have had the interesting experience of debating with someone and […]
CURING MY HEART
A scriptural meditation on the “heart cure” HEART: The inner “chatter”, what I am really thinking deep within while my outside actions and words seem fine. My heart is deceitful above all things!
