Angels are messengers from God. They send messages to us, and they also report back to God. So Angels are two way transmitters. We are too. We as Christians go obediently, telling people about Jesus. When someone gives out information, they should also be receiving information. Hear what the other people say and think. Listen […]

Wolves
Acts 20:28 Pay careful attention to yourselves and to all the flock, in which the Holy Spirit has made you overseers, to care for the church of God, which he obtained with his own blood. I know that after my departure fierce wolves will come in among you, not sparing the flock; and from among […]
Cre8
Romans 2:29 No, a person is a Jew who is one inwardly; and circumcision is circumcision of the heart, by the Spirit, not by the written code. Such a person’s praise is not from other people, but from God. ‘8’ basically means new beginnings. Jesus rose from the dead the 8th day of the week, […]
Different
Numbers 14:24 New International Version But because my servant Caleb has a different spirit and follows me wholeheartedly, I will bring him into the land he went to, and his descendants will inherit it. God likes different. People do too, reluctantly. This past weekend we reflected on Jesus’ triumphant return to Jerusalem. The multitudes adored […]
Religious
James 1:27 King James Version Pure religion and undefiled before God and the Father is this, To visit the fatherless and widows in their affliction, and to keep himself unspotted from the world. Karl Marx said, ‘Religion is the opium of the people.’ If you mean religion as just doing things to do them, he […]
Empower
Proverbs 26:4 New International Version Do not answer a fool according to his folly, or you yourself will be just like him. If you are answering a fool according to his folly, you are empowering them. Usually when someone says something weird, it is just a way to get attention. I think it is best […]
Bold
Acts 19:8 New International Version Paul entered the synagogue and spoke boldly there for three months, arguing persuasively about the kingdom of God. I had a problem when I was in the car business. I could only remember a customer’s name if I saw the car they were driving. Once I saw a guy in […]
Plans
Like the song says,’ I, Am Not Skilled to Understand…What, God has Willed…What God has “Planned” Jeremiah 29:11 New International Version For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the LORD, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. A little lady by stature, but […]
Loyalty
Companies pay millions of dollars a year trying to keep young employees loyal, but they will never have loyal employees as long as they look for ways to fire people once they have a little seniority. Young employees are young, not stupid. When they see the company firing or forcing out older employees they know […]
Cheerful
Romans 12:8 New International Version if it is to encourage, then give encouragement; if it is giving, then give generously; if it is to lead, do it diligently; if it is to show mercy, do it cheerfully. Cheerfulness has won over more people than anything else that I know of. I have been reminded again […]
