News for the new year.

I know that it is not even November yet but there are only four days left until then. I would like to ask you this question, How was your year? Maybe you are wondering why even bother looking back, look forward and up never look back. Some of you are even embarrassed to look back at some of the things you did this year and you are probably moving your mouse to the URL button to leave this blog, but before you do take a minute and keep reading. What was your year like? Was it an awful year? Do you remember one time this year when you were really happy? No, not that time when you had a little to much to drink, well you can use that time if that is the only time you think you were really happy this year. I'm really sorry:(

Well for the rest of you I'm pretty sure there were times with family, husband, boyfriend that you experienced some moments of happiness, but how about the times when you were alone? Can I ask you another question? Do you need to be alone or do you need to be with other people? Ha I got you, we can't be alone all the time but it is important that when you are alone you well are happy...why? I call it maturity.

Really I hate being alone, but when I'm, alone, I can be myself..a scary thing if you do not know who you are! I've heard that there are book for that.."discover your true identity, the world, you, and who you want to be, become a better you..(how do you do that anyway?) Let's go somewhere together...
Do you remember what you were like when you were a child? Do you remember what made you happy as a child? I'm not saying we need to be like kids, even though it would help. Do you remember your fist kiss? I'm sorry if you had a bad childhood but you don't have to make up for it now. Remember the times in your life when you were the most happy. As an exercise tonight before you go to sleep or even now try to remember those things that made you happy. It's not a sin to be a happy person. You would think that the church would preach a little more about that? Well maybe in your world the church for you is not a happy place. I get it.

What do you think the meaning of life is? To be happy? to go to a special place when you die? God forbid you go ..well, I think we were not only created for church happiness, I think we were created to enjoy ourselves and be happy. This is not hedonism or pseudo happiness, but joy.. I think heaven should be a place of joy. I like that word. You need to find joy real joy and never let it go when you find it, because when you have found joy, you will live again.

On Christian Marriage. (Short)

On Christian Marriage. (Short) The modern co-habitation crisis has produced a lot of single moms and dads, and has fractured "family units" allowing other family members and relatives to take a bigger role in these "Separated families." There isn't a "one cause" why families have separated or divorced, it is a complicated issue, sometimes resulting in very hard emotions for Society to process. Things like the "millennial sexual revolution" have contributed to the widespread "non-committal" attitude, which in turn has given the traditional marriage the "black eye" it currently has and has turned many Christian men away from seeking a life partner. The more society devalues "traditional marriage" the more co-habitation you will see in all the other generations as well as the Millennials. This is Mike.

The Parable of the Ten Virgins.

Matthew 25:1-13 I have discovered a remarkable interpretation of this parable that I would like to share with you. The story in the Bible goes like this: “At that time the kingdom of heaven will be like ten virgins who took their lamps and went out to meet the bridegroom. 2 Five of them were foolish and five were wise. 3 The foolish ones took their lamps but did not take any oil with them. 4 The wise ones, however, took oil in jars along with their lamps. 5 The bridegroom was a long time in coming, and they all became drowsy and fell asleep. 6 “At midnight the cry rang out: ‘Here’s the bridegroom! Come out to meet him!’ 7 “Then all the virgins woke up and trimmed their lamps. 8 The foolish ones said to the wise, ‘Give us some of your oil; our lamps are going out.’ 9 “‘No,’ they replied, ‘there may not be enough for both us and you. Instead, go to those who sell oil and buy som...

The Existence of God

Since the beginning of time, man has learned about the existence of God. It began in the Garden of Eden where Adam and Eve walked and talked with God, however when they sinned, they died spiritually and their closeness with God was severed. In Genesis 4:26 it reads “Seth also had a son, and he named him Enosh. At that time people began to call on the name of the LORD.” Seth was the third son of Adam and Eve, so it’s fair to say that not too long after mankind fell, we also called upon the Lord. From that time until now, mankind was closer to God then, but it’s a modern shift that the world is in the state it is in now, mainly unbelief, because even 30 years ago from now, mankind was closer to God. It is also true that in ancient Israel’s history, there have been generations that fell away and forgot God, but in the time of the prophets Israel was never left without a word from the Lord. Many generations have come and gone, but there have been remarkable generations all thr...
