IT'S earth shattering and downright scary to suddenly be found a widow at any age. This very young mother of thirty one had to face that reality along with two preschoolers. And you can't help but shake your head in disbelief and ask 'why oh why'.

UNBELIEF - a word that I am well acquainted it and at the same time cannot believe my unbelief. If someone does not believe in God then who or what else is there to believe in? Interestingly enough, as a Christian, I do not read the Bible and fight against the truth.

The moment when you say to yourself 'enough is enough' and you get mad enough to do something about a dragging situation that is long overdue.
It could be anything such as eating better, getting out of debt, reading the Bible, spending more time with the family, making an overdue phone call, stepping out of the boat, dreaming big dreams and taking action.

In a world where 'self' becomes the center. It is about 'moi' and 'me'. Who can blame us? Around us, children are dying, people are starving to death, and the world seems to look the other way, or so it seems at the mass injustice that forces us sometimes to turn off our TV or change the channel to ease our conscience. The situation is dire and grave. &Myriamhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04777058461658866230noreply@blogger.com7tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-641577812662933722.post-20538113897977436832012-03-03T17:53:00.000-05:002012-03-03T17:53:35.671-05:00WorshipMyriamhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04777058461658866230noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-641577812662933722.post-4464482343813464072011-02-03T09:34:00.002-05:002011-02-03T09:34:54.313-05:00This Thing is from ME

THE first Psalm that is ascribed to King David and it is what is called a Messianic Psalm. While the people of Psalm 1 treasures God’s law it is quite a contrast in Psalm 2, the people has complete disregard for the law. Not much has changed from the days of David until now. Psalm 2 is referenced at least 15 times in the New Testament.

I started listening to LifeChurch.TV podcasts a few days ago. I must say since then I’ve listened to a number of sermons by Craig Groeschel and one of them was part of a series called Five Steps to wreck your life. In one of the messages, he outlines the necessary steps to draw away from God and if follows closely – mission will be accomplished.
