"The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full." John 10:10

From albertmohler: This madness of crowds is evident before our eyes. We must pray that some will find the Savior after the emptiness of mere celebrity worship.

What words did the "king of pop" hear from the King of Kings?

Psalm 37:4 "Rest in the Lord and wait patiently for Him.". Yes let's!!!

Hot today, but not as hot as hell... And that is eternity separated from God.

My fave verse-"And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose." Rom 8:28

"In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God." John 1:1- Awesome!

"Your words were found, and I ate them..." Jer 15:16
God's word should be first for every meal.

Why do we envy or gush over celebrities? "God will not share His glory with another." Is 42:8
The day is coming soon....

"He's not finished with me yet." Brandon Heath

Isn't God amazing! He gets us through all the storms of life. He will not give us anything beyond what we can handle. And He makes a way out for His children.

I love these two words: mercy and grace. I thank God that they shine upon me new every day.

Call Me Crazy

Why would I spend my life longing for the day that it would end?
Why would I spend my time pointing to another man?
The world sees that as crazy.
How can I find hope in dying with promises unseen?

I have not been called to the wisdom of this world, but to a God who is calling out to me.
And even though the world may think that I'm losing touch with reality,
It would be crazy to choose this world over eternity.

If I boast let me boast, in filthy rags made clean.
If I glory let me glory in my Savior's suffering.
Isn't that crazy?
As I live this daily life I trust You for everything.
I will only take a stand when I feel you leading me.
Isn't that crazy?

I have not been called to the wisdom of this world, but to a God who is calling out to me.
And even though the world may think that I'm losing touch with reality,
It would be crazy to choose this world over eternity!
So, call me crazy!

Mercy Me
