    Heavy Burdens

    A story of Depression Heavy burdens hard to bear Many idols not to wear Many lives are in despair Feel life treats them so unfair Not the way they hoped life be Happy, and from troubles free Slipped a mickey in their drink And from there their lives did sink Walked away from what was true...

    Overcoming Sinful Addiction

    “No temptation has overtaken you that is not common to man. God is faithful, and he will not let you be tempted beyond your ability, but with the temptation he will also provide the way of escape, that you may be able to endure it.” (1 Corinthians 10:13 ESV) Before I get specifically into this...

    Mind Games

    Mind Games An Original Work / April 16, 2018 You use and abuse, And you tell tall tales. You promise to change, But to no avail. When you’re asked to change, Then you raise your claws. You rage and refuse To give truth applause. Then, you seem to know Of what you did wrong. You cry and...

    In Action and Truth

    What Great Love 1 John 3:1-3 ESV See what kind of love the Father has given to us, that we should be called children of God; and so we are. The reason why the world does not know us is that it did not know him. Beloved, we are God's children now, and what we will be has not yet appeared; but we...

    Dealing with Addictions

    Greetings all men, this thread is here to open up an opportunity for us all to either reach out a hand for help or reach out a hand to help. Addictions come in many different sizes and shapes and colours but they all have the same price tag on our walk with the Lord. Most commonly we see...

    I'm Writing a Book

    The Lord Jesus recently impressed it upon my heart to write a book and to place it here on the internet. “I Married My Dad” is a book being written by Sue J Love, from the perspective of a wife of a recovering sex (lust) addict. It is being written for the purpose to be an encouragement to...

    Abide in Truth

    What is love? It can be many different things, depending on what type of love we are talking about. There is erotic or romantic love, and then there is friendship (companionship or brotherly) love, and I believe there is also a special kind of love a parent has for a child, and then there is...

    Breaking Free

    (An allegory from real life) About three weeks ago, my husband and I each had to have a crown removed from a tooth in our mouths, and a new crown each was put on order. While we waited for the new (permanent) crowns to arrive, we were each given a temporary crown, which was not as good as the...

    A Common Thread

    If you, being a follower of Jesus Christ, were to write a testimony of what difference Jesus Christ has made in your life, what would that say? Surely, each of our testimonies would be as individual as we are, but there should also be a common thread weaved throughout all of them. The Lord...

    Not in Freedom!

    My heart is burdened. Why is it so burdened? Because so many Christians, or professing Christians, are walking (living) in sin and not in freedom! The Lord Jesus led me to read Galatians 5 (Select vv. ESV). For freedom Christ has set us free; stand firm therefore, and do not submit again to a...

    Enslaved Again?

    Do you lay claims to being a follower of Jesus Christ? Does your walk match your talk? Or are you, behind closed doors, someone else entirely? The Lord Jesus led me to read Galatians 4 (Select vv. NASB). However, at that time, when you did not know God, you were slaves to those which by nature...

    Giving Up?

    Do you ever feel that you have sinned so badly that there is no hope for you? That you can never be forgiven? Or, that you will never gain victory over your sin? And, so you give up? And, you just give in to the sin? Well, there is hope for you! Jesus Christ, God the Son, died on a cross, not...

    Slavery to Sin

    Friday, July 21, 2017, 5:13 a.m. – The Lord Jesus put in mind the song “He Reached Down.” Speak, Lord, your words to my heart.

    Are You Free?

    Monday, July 3, 2017, 5:52 a.m. – The Lord Jesus put in mind the song “Songs in The Night.” Speak, Lord, your words to my heart.

    Purity in Faith

    Saturday, February 11, 2017, 8:00 a.m. – The Lord Jesus put in mind the song “Search Me, O God.” Speak, Lord, your words to my heart. I read Titus 2 (NASB). Older Men (vv. 1-2) But as for you, speak the things which are fitting for sound doctrine. Older men are to be temperate, dignified...

    Lord, Be King

    Monday, December 5, 2016, 9:00 a.m. – The Lord Jesus put in mind the song “When in the Stillness.” Speak, Lord, your words to my heart. I read Acts 19:23-41 (ESV). Man-made gods (vv. 23-27) About that time there arose no little disturbance concerning the Way. For a man named Demetrius, a...

    Addictive Personality

    Sunday, August 28, 2016, 5:30 a.m. – The Lord Jesus put in mind the song “Jesus, Lead Me.” Speak, Lord, your words to my heart. I read 1 John 4 (ESV). Beloved, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits to see whether they are from God, for many false prophets have gone out into the...
