The cost of immorality.

I liked to say that Satan was the great moralist, because just what is immorality anyway. There is a buzz in the air and it is speaking, it goes something like this: Do you want to be free? Do you want to have your own way in life? It only comes around once a year. It doesn't have any instructions, in fact if you buy it, it will be yours forever! Come one come all and see the man with no eyes! He's as blind as a bat, yet he can tell the difference from right and wrong! Surely in your darkest dreams you have seen this man. He is in the corners of your living room, he is under your bed. When you turn the lights out he is in your fridge! He has green eyes and no tongue, he is called human being. In your humanness have you ever wondered what God thinks about certain things? Do you see Him as some evasive force, living in the clouds somewhere, but not right next to you? Joan Osborne said "What if God was one of us? Just a slob like one of us, just a stranger on the bus, trying to make his way home." What if God was right beside you right now? What if the space between Heaven and Earth could intersect right now..would you be ashamed? The second coming of Christ will be a surprise to you because as the veil between our world and Christ's is only a breath away. The real meaning of His appearing is just that, an unveiling. If you could picture a theatre stage, with it's closed curtains behind it, there is a real world going on behind the curtain. The stage is set and someone will shortly be making his appearance, ready or not the curtain opens...the lights dim. There is a figure on the stage, he is dressed in white and red, time stops. Everything stops for a moment and a new time period has begun. He motions to you and you are very tired to walk to him, but you do. He looks you in the eyes and at that moment you see eternity.

Back to the world. You are tired, you are worn out. You are not eating well and your sleep is all messed up. You wonder if you'll ever be able to face reality again. You have been to that other world, it is not what you think, and you wonder how time has changed your body. How time has changed your mind. Is it well, with your soul? And you see a light. For a moment, everything is black, you see what you would only see in your dreams. But you are asleep, everything around you is sleeping. You quickly look around, ok you are in your room. Time is going to change, it is changing now. "How is your bank account?" How is your leg? You remember that you have to sleep tonight, but where will you sleep? Where is the light?

There is blood flowing in your veins, and that song you heard last night reminds you that this world won't last. So what have I learnt? I'll let my body tell you. There were many friends and still are who would love to meet you, but I am a writer..I think. I'll tell you what I think, earth, wind, rain and fire makes this world worth living. If we were missing one, which we are, I would say "Give me my rain and I give you fire."

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.

Why Christians must show Mutual Concern for One another.

  Look and see, there is no one at my right hand; no one is concerned for me. I have no refuge; no one cares for my life. Psalm 142:4. Christians in the church should have mutual concern for one another, this is what it means to be part of the body of Christ, 1 Corinthians 12:25. It’s takes good pastoral leadership to foster this sense of concern, and where it is missing, individuals who are suffering in the church are overlooked and not supported. Every believer needs support and encouragement, but when this is missing, the church divides and loses it power and testimony. Christians live like the world, and become vulnerable to Satan’s attacks when nobody is supporting them outside the church. I used to belong to an evangelical church which had great leadership, and something called small groups. This church felt like a family and I had people who shared my Christian walk with me when I was not in the church building. I have been attending a different denomination that doesn’t hav...

Ontarian's to possibly extend Daylight Savings time till next Spring.

Ontarian's to possibly extend Daylight Savings time till next Spring. Regardless as to why we started this time change, it has been in effect many years before I was born, or my Parents were born. I understand that some people can benefit with the extra sunlight in the winter time, but I want to give you a definition of our circadian rhythm as humans. circadian rhythm (/sɜːrˈkeɪdiən/) is any biological process that displays an endogenous, entrainable oscillation of about 24 hours. These 24-hour rhythms are driven by a circadian clock, and they have been widely observed in plants, animals, fungi, and cyanobacteria. In other words, our bodies are biological clocks that operate within the realm of time, and time is measured by how much daylight is in a day. Our bodies adjust to time, but it takes time and a steady exposure to sunlight during the day to set our internal clocks. When we experience time changes, our bodies change along with the 24 hour day cycle. When we over-extend ...
