Will I have a good new year? Is there any way to tell? Consider the following: If I can help save someone from an eternity in hell, If my faith in Jesus is on display and not merely an empty shell, If I can speak loudly about my faith, and not even have to yell, If my...
Jesus, how often you must sigh! When I pretend to try, or when I decide to lie, or when I grow old and die, or perhaps even when I at last resurrect and fly! How glad I am, though, that you and I will never, ever have to say goodbye! Sigh! Chris Hansen
I rejected Jesus. What was I thinking! I knew my life was sinking. I knew I would be a corpse, dead and stinking. Still, he and I were just not linking. Was I moved by Roman crucifixion nails, clinking? Yes, indeed! So, why was I shrinking? Well, all this talk about a...
Jesus might say, "I give you this solemn warning! Don't tell me how you behaved on a Sunday morning! I'd rather hear about how you behaved on a Monday afternoon. Now that's worship of a different tune. How did you treat folk when no church folk were around? That's...

My friend, I heard you pray. I listened carefully to what you had to say. You thanked me for all the beauty all around. You thanked me that your loved ones were all safe and sound. You thanked me for your job and all the money you had. You thanked me for sparing you...
Jesus, why should I love them? First, because you did not condemn. Loving them should be my task, First of all, because you ask. Second, I should have the same love as you, my master, Because without your love, they will end in disaster! After all, you were willing to...
Why is he the only key when I pray? Why does he have the final say? No one else would tolerate my sin! No one else would get me out of what I got in. No one else could predict the future like he can. No one else could be Almighty God who became a man. No one else...
