(desplazarse hacia abajo para español) Anger Proverbs 15 A soft answer turneth away wrath: but grievous words stir up anger. After working with children, being a dad, and being a kid myself, I have learned that anger comes to us naturally. In fact we are born with it. NOT being angry is something many of us have to work […]
Holiness
(desplazarse hacia abajo para español) Holiness Luke 11:46 And he (Jesus) said, Woe unto you also, ye lawyers! for ye lade men with burdens grievous to be borne, and ye yourselves touch not the burdens with one of your fingers. In trying to be ‘holy’ I used to read thru the Bible twice a year. That didn’t make me […]

Brainwashed

Sides

Serve
Psalm 100:2 Serve the LORD with gladness; (Español abajo) It’s nice to read different translations of the Bible. The NIV version says to ‘worship the Lord with gladness’. Sounds completely different, doesn’t it? It’s not. God is saying here through His Word that if you aren’t happy to serve Him, DON’T! Kids have nothing to […]
Snares
Psalm 25:15 My eyes are ever on the Lord, for only he will release my feet from the snare. (Español abajo) That verse describes my prayer life since we came to the mission field. I know that this type of prayer has made it possible to continue staying here no matter what. I try to […]
Fear
God said to Moses, “Make a poisonous serpent, and set it on a pole; and everyone who is bitten shall look at it and live.” (Numbers 21:8) (Español abajo) In the wilderness, snakes are scary. In Nicaragua, they kill lots of people. You need to fear snakes down here. It’s smart, not fearful, to have a healthy […]
