In the natural so is it always demonstrated, as it is in the supernatural. “Rivers of Life” so did Jesus speak of Himself, the Message, the Word, as He spoke of spreading the good news through the people. His first miracle as reported by His followers was the turning of water into wine. He took something common, something essential, and converted it into something valuable, pleasurable, something to be consumed, something red. As it was in the beginning so must it be at the e

He wears his constant smile from ear to ear, yet as he smiles, eyes remain glued on every individual that passes by, scanning the ever passing crowd for people of marked recognition, yet at the same time his ever attentive ear is also turned to the One who stands next to him. Peter listens with intensity as if his very breath rests on every word spoken from the Companion to his right. Because it does! Clothed in white linen, brighter then the brightest Sun, Peter’s Companion

Accident or example, why this particular possessed man did Jesus ask? It is clearly documented that Jesus cast out demons in many people. Even the pharisees admitted it with their own accusations, when they accused Him of casting out demons in the name of demons, as in Matthew 12:24. But why was this particular man commented on, noted and described, not only in one, but two Gospels? Was it perhaps to teach? God doesn’t just teach with a single action, but with His entire crea

When did everyone stop having simple common morals? Not long ago I sat one late evening talking with my aging Uncle Buzz, seventy five years old, suffering from Non-Hodgkins Lymphocytic Leukemia, he was but a shadow physically of the man I knew and loved my whole life, yet in spirit he was as strong if not stronger then I could ever remember. Not often did I hear him speak of his youth, yet as the end seemed to approach in his own life, more and more these late night discussi

“Forgive them father for they know not what they do.” One of the last statements made, by the greatest man that had ever lived right before inviting yet another sinner into paradise and then declaring; “It is finished”. “Forgive them Father, for they know not what they do”, has been a statement of discussion, example of forgiveness, and call fraise for countless interactions for nearly the last twenty centuries. Believer or not, sinner or saint, nobody denies He lived, and wh

A father, a brother, a son going about his business, he has heard the commotion, people talking about the show at the temple. But people talk. There are fish to catch, he has his children to feed. Not that he has a difficult life, work can be hard, but with good hard work comes good reward. Seeing the faces of his children as they smile at dinner, a dinner provided by the strength of his arm, the commitment of his work, and the love of a father who knows the lives that have

Not all to long ago, lived a Beautiful Loving King, who ruled a good and noble kingdom, a kingdom of light. Ruled with love and compassion, truth, kindness, undeniable justice, freedom for all, the King made everything open to His people, all the access to any wisdom they needed for life. The good King gave His people all they could ever want, health, wealth, peace, security, demanding nothing, not even their worship even though he could, maybe even should. Demanding nothing

Being in a place of acceptance even if this is just a spiritual place, and not just the passing social/economical moments of our lives, can and always seems to leave us in a position of vulnerability that pulls at the very strings of our mind and sole. That feeling of uncertainty, accountability, openness, trends us to question our own stability in an already unstable world. It is no wonder why everyone hates crisis, not to mention the usual resulting manifesting conflicts th

As I run along this path that I seem to have found my self upon, not any longer by choice, but one thankfully given, yes free will, every choice my own, yet prompted and guided by Him, it is a path going to unrealized, and excitedly fulfilling, Godly wonderful places. God’s breath in those places, rapidly unfolding themselves around me as peddles, fragrantly glistening in the mornings cool dew. Not always is the path of great pleasure, no!, most one of hardship and on

Leadership is a privilege not a right, all authority is granted from above, whether we want to believe it or not, regardless, we are only allowed anything in this life because He gives it to us from above. I was laying in my sleep and the Lord told me; “this is what I want you to say to my people;” “As for the senators and congressmen that I have allowed to serve this great nation, they will bring dignity and honor back into their tenure. At the end of their terms, right befo

The man given everything he has ever wanted or needed, loving parents, all the abilities to guarantee success in life, the best schools, a beautiful safe and secure home, a loving and faithful wife, healthy beautiful successful children, a great career, all the money he could ever want, or use, then one day he finds himself walking along, maybe a bit more frustrated then usual for a day perhaps a bit more challenging then average. As he glances up his path, he notices a anoth

What is amazing is the subtle messages of the enemy one can pick up in the most popular movies these days. Biblical names and figure being tossed out and around like they are nothing more then mythological characters of no more significance then the pagan god’s of old. And to make matters worse characters of less then honorable Biblical reference are often given the most lofty or honored characterization, such as the prince of persia being correlated to a hero, a savior. Vic

God knows what the outcome will be, He has seen the path and destination our own steps have led. He knows what devastation that will come out of these steps, the pestilence. He has His prophets even write about it, so those who would see, recognize the hand of God in everything around us through this most horrific sign. He even tells us when; it is at a time when mens hearts will become cold, they will kill their young, darkness will prevail on the world. But the devil is als

All of this magnificent power, a result of something equivalent to the spoken Word. Wow, if the Bible is merely the writings of men, what genius that these men knew, without the aid of modern instrumentation and centuries of learned reference, that the universe was “Spoken” into creation. So Moses with out the advantage of thousands of years years of scientific research and advance instrumentation, was able to guess that everything was created from sound, when he wrote “God S

Pleasurable days and the content that makes them a pleasure or in some cases displeasure, varies as the rapid intervals of a roller coaster. To the casual observer each day set forth before him, demonstrates little or no difference in content, yet to the buffoon which rides this whirlwind, in irony, I may add, the subtle changes in direction are as palpable as a baseball bat to the head. You would think the generous smile of unknown beauty, or a good days visit to the gym, ri

Science will tell us that we are merely a conglomerate of energy; particles of negative charges revolving around positive ones with a few neutral ones thrown in there for good nature. Isn’t God wonderful, everything in His creation from the largest to the smallest mimics each other, and ultimately Him, as to place His perfect design on the fingerprints of everything we may take the time to look at, and then hopefully give Him the glory for the creation. In my own observations

A man sits with his comrades in a foxhole, pondering the decisions that wrestle his mind and heart. Decisions of life and death. Being pinned down by a machine gun nest above their position, just up the hill, hope seems lost. This small platoon, a company of twenty five or so men, walked into this valley, not of their own construct, but derived from the many atrocities that occur throughout this fallen world. Our man, he is strong and lean, a strength that surpasses visible a

I knew a man once, a long time ago, he was a younger man, naive yet full of faith. Faith in God but also in the world! This man always loved God, even walked and talked with Him his whole life, but often knew not how to show it. Then one day he found himself in a far off land, and the last thing he expected happened; God decided to bless him by allowing our young traveler to meet one of Gods “truly wonderful flowers”! It didn’t take long for this man to fall in love with the
