Positive thinking has a lot of power. That’s because God wants you thinking positively. Nothing—and I mean NOTHING—negative comes from God. However, negative thinking has even more power. That’s because it grows like a cancer, starting out as a small negative thought and, in the extreme, ending up being all-consuming. Am I saying something is more powerful than God?

Can You REALLY Feel God’s Love?
Be honest! If you reach inward, can you really feel God’s love for you? In case you don’t know it, God loves you. Yes, you! He loves you as much as he loves me and every other person on this earth. Equally and unconditionally. But if you can’t feel the love that’s because you are not releasing God’s love to others. Continue reading “Can You REALLY Feel God’s Love?”
Up or Down, It’s a God-Given Day!
Let’s be honest—every day doesn’t feel like a great day, let alone even a good day. Yesterday was not a good day for me. It was a day filled with bumps and doubts that made those bumps even bigger. But this morning I latch onto the fact that it was a God-given day. Every day should be a great day when your life is God-centered. However, the fact is we are fallible humans prone to twists and turns in our lives, and centering our lives on anything but God. Continue reading “Up or Down, It’s a God-Given Day!”
What’s Your Life Purpose?
We all have a purpose in life. It’s a God-given purpose. No matter how seemingly insignificant or earth-moving the world may deem that purpose, God deems your purpose to be special and unique. You’re not a puppet on God’s strings fulfilling that purpose. You have total free will in living your life. But there’s a road for you that is one of a kind and untraveled.

Is Heaven REALLY for Real?
Yes. You can read the book (Heaven is for Real) about a little boy’s journey to heaven and back, or wait for the movie based on the book due out for Easter 2014. Or you can read any number of books about heaven experiences or, better yet, talk to a person who has had a “heaven” experience. My wife is a nurse who in her critical care days saw these experiences up close with patients on death’s edge. Or you can READ the Bible and understand that eternity is God’s promise to us. How we LIVE this life depends on where we spend that eternity—in heaven or down there. Continue reading “Is Heaven REALLY for Real?”

Christmas Is Over. Christ Isn’t.
December 25th has come and gone. The trees are drooping in their stands and there are presents to return. The holiday is gone—the rush thankfully over—but fortunately the Savior is still here. He always is. Continue reading “Christmas Is Over. Christ Isn’t.”
Take Him Off the Cross
This is a great time of year for each one of us to take Jesus off the cross. He can’t rise in our lives if we don’t bring him down, take out the nails, and unfree him to rise, just like Joseph of Arimathea did. What? More abstraction than reality? Think again. Continue reading “Take Him Off the Cross”
Ready for Christmas or Christ?
I’m trying to answer that question. In my case, I think the answer is neither. I’m not finished with the Christmas shopping and between that and work I’m not ready for Christ. Sad—I know. Continue reading “Ready for Christmas or Christ?”
