How Long Will You Wait? 3/11/2006
Many times over the years I have been impatient with God.
As I wrote a week or so back, I have been without work now for
almost 6 months, why I ask God?
How many times a day do you get irritated at something that
is not going your way. I get in the wrong line at a toll booth,
a grocery store, a check out line in a store, the list goes

and dry with little or no usefulness. for our usefulness
comes to light as we grow into the fulness of Christ. He who

Good works are determined by how much it pleases God 3/10/2006
Good work is evaluated on the basis of how much of God's
love is found in it. Therefore every Christian should always
remember that the value of his good works is not based on

The love of Jesus is an ocean
with no shore to bound it.
And if anyone of us plunge into it, we carry
with us all the possessions
we have. The Lord knows
what these possessions are-
the souls God have seen
fit to link with our individual soul.

to be a christian and not go to church. A trully saved christian
or person will find the gathering of God's people interesting
and desirable, that includes going to ...
