While the internet has a wealth of resources, we wanted to create a safe place for people of all walks of life to have a place to come and share life-events, ask the hard questions, and be encouraged by the words of others along the way on the similar journeys. The solution was to create…
Scripture
A personal reflection on the journal entries that scripture brings to revelation, for personal growth and public dissemination.
Difficulty Being Understood
Recently I made a personal decision to ease off on the amount of time being spent on Facebook. Crazy huh? It’s an amazing conduit for staying in touch with loved ones, family and friends, and with each passing day the social vibe snakes across cyberspace ever changing and intruding the divide we know called reality…
Raising Eyebrows
The world is in a precarious position. I don’t think it takes rocket science to figure out that chaos is abounding, disorder is the order of the day and mankind is oblivious to the collision course we are on with certain destiny. Pretty deep opening statement; but true nonetheless. A few years ago on Easter…
Empty Buildings
Time has literally escaped from under my feet! I have been meaning to update the Journal for a while, and truthfully just haven’t got around to it. Today seems a good day for me to take a moment to play ‘catch-up’, and although much has been happening in the wake of 2011 I really wanted…
God Gave Me You
Just finished listening to a song by Dave Barnes – God Gave Me You (for the ups and downs), and as I listened to the lyrics it dawned on me that for sure some people are put across our path by the Lord for a specific reason, be it for good or bad. Ah how…
When Life goes from Bad to Worse
“I was pretty sure I understood what God was asking me to do. I was obedient. I took the next steps…but now I’m wondering if I got it all wrong. Instead of things going right they seem to be getting worse!” Sound familiar? We think we understand what God is asking of us, but the…
He Sees You!
[youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=emLH07k–s0] It’s quite strange how life comes at us with interesting situations that we can’t figure out or understand, and proceed to think we are the only ones going through whatever it is that is troubling us. The good news is that even when people around us fail, when systems no longer work, and when…
Do Our Children Need Prayer?
Nancy and I look at our daughters and see how the enemy is unrelenting, and his desire is to take them away from serving the Lord. Seeing the seriousness in all of this, we came to the conclusion today that above every other need within a family, prayer is critical for survival. How many of…
The Unemployed Christian
Since 2008 the world economy has been crumbling, falling apart and many nations have been affected, some, like Greenland as a country filed for bankruptcy, while others have seen massive multinational corporations fold over night. We watch the news, and count the numbers of people affected, and then hear from a close friend they have…
Is Spiritual Obesity Possible?
In the month of March, there was an event hosted by Breaking Chains Ministries here in North County. The premise of the event was “breakfast in the park” with “loaves and fishes”. We enjoyed delicious fish grilled on the BBQ and pita bread along with snacks and drinks which we shared while having fellowship with…
