There Is An Art To Balance…

by Leave a Comment

 Have you ever really considered the art in self  discipline which is a required skill in  balancing our lives mentally, physically, and most of all spiritually?  How often do you take the time to keep these three principles in tune? This should be a task in every day that we are given, and if we are neglecting this fact then our lives can easily get out of control. 

 Think about yourself walking a tight rope that is high in the air with very little room in your step to spare. What do you see happening when you take your eyes off of the line that we are to follow? Can you see the importance of knowing where to stand? 

 We are taught how to stand in the Holy Bible from the old testament to the new.  For in the beginning we learn how stay mentally focused on God as we physically mature in life. Then as time goes on, in our physical maturity from one generation to the next, then we are set spiritually free once we learn how to properly believe.

 In everyday that we are given it is vital to know the foundation from which we stand and pay attention to our steps in life. So, I challenge you today and every other day to strive in your steps to not only keep your life in balance but to be a good example in teaching our children of the future…amen

How Do You Balance?

by Leave a Comment

When you study the word balance and look upon your life what do you see?

 Do you see your life out of order, your work in chaos, your marriage barely alive, your children out of control, or just no time for yourself in allowing God to keep you in tune?  

 In order to keep our lives in check we must recognize the purpose of self discipline and the purpose of order in all directions to maintain our balance in life. Maintaining our balance is not something that comes easy and we must accept the fact that it requires work to keep our lives in tune. It is very easy in todayssociety to feel like we do not have time when we really do, and this is exactly what satan wants because then he knows we can lose our direction in life.

 For life is not about how fast we can run or fast we may achieve a goal. It is about learning to maintain what we have been given before we can reach the next levels in life through Jesus Christ.

 I challenge you today and every other day to look around at everything which you have been given from your health, to your work, to your spouse, to your children, to your friends, to your neighbors, to your church, and most of all to God in Heaven above to see if there is something that you may need to address in order to help someone else maintain their balance in life.

 Life is not about what we gain in this world but how we leave it, and with this being said I leave you this morning with this question upon your heart,” What can you do today that will improve something for tomorrow?” Don’t just go through your day drifting along the way! Go the extra mile in everything you do in allowing the Lord to bring you through…amen

Look Beyond The Storm…

by Leave a Comment

 It is so easy in everyday life to get entangled in the obstacles that we face daily that we forget the direction that God has shown us by how to face and overcome our troubles in life. When we remove our focus from God our vision becomes restricted by Satan.  He only wants us to fall deeper into our troubles rather than facing them head on with the armor of God and doing the work that it takes to get us through.

 In the flesh of man it is very easy to give up or lay down when we face negative issues in life but this is where we must learn to call upon Jesus to help us through by never taking the easy way out and never avoiding what we know is right in our hearts to be true.  Jesus plainly taught us how to look beyond the negative circumstance of this world by seeking the direction of God while never avoiding what we must face. When we follow this principle in life by facing our issues it is amazing how much more clear they will become and even how the Lord can deliver you.

 If we are not careful in the fog of this world we can allow one negative issue to blind us of all the blessings that we have around us.  This is where we must learn to look beyond the storm to see our way to the other side. We all have issues whether individually, at home, in our family, in our work, in our country and even in many of our churches that can cause us to feel that we cannot make a difference.  We can make a difference!  The Lord plainly taught us how by facing our issues in loving ways rather than in anger.  It is when we neglect the light of Jesus that we will fall to the darkness of this world.

 I challenge you to face something that will improve not only things in your life but something in someone else’s by showing them that you care.  It is when we neglect this principle in our life that we forget how to act within the love of Jesus Christ and we fall to only focusing on ourselves rather than looking beyond our life…amen

Trusting In God’s Timing…

by Leave a Comment

In the book of Proverbs 15:23 Soloman wrote,”A man has joy by the answer of his mouth, and a word spoken in due season, how good it is!”

It is very easy in life to speak before the time but very wise when we learn the purpose of timing within the season.

So many times in life we move in following the flesh instead of waiting on God to open the door. This happens when we don’t properly understand who is really in control or when we get anxious in our youth to move before the season.

Something rushed will always fall and something built on time is when we learn to trust in God in hearing His call.

I challenge you today and every other day to trust in God and to just do your part. For when the Lord brings things together it will be in His timing and not in ours…amen

In A Room of True Love…

by 1 Comment

In the book of Proverbs 15:17 Soloman wrote,”Better is a dinner of herbs where love is, than a fatted calf with hatred.”

With this being said can you recall the wholesome times of the meals with paper plates over those with fine china?

Life is about being real and who you are without trying to impress another.

For when we seek to please God instead of attempting to impress man then we are truly showing that we understand God’s plan.

I challenge you today and every other day to be real. Because there is a difference between fine china and a paper plate. Fine china is worthless once broken and a paper plate can be reused once it has been wiped clean even though it may be stained from the fall…amen

Spiritual Revelations

Don’t be like Eli in 1st Samuel and miss something that has been given by God. If you recall with Eli he did not listen because the Word of God was rare in those days and he did not recognize what was taking place until he saw the persistence of Samuel…
