Ask, Seek, Knock [from the Archives]

Sometimes the old things come back to teach us again. This is a message I really think I need to share again with you all. It is a repost from 2009, in my early blog days. Enjoy. Greetings, Matthew 7:7-8 Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it [...]

A Rant For You

What is the meaning of life? Why are we here? Does it matter? Should we give any thought to anything beyond ourselves? Why should we trust anyone but our own selves? What is there beyond what we see? Are there hopes, dreams, possibilities beyond what we can ken at this moment? Is there hope beyond [...]

A little writing… what is love?

What is love?   The first cry of a newborn child, echoing in her mother’s heart like the ripples of a new fountain, which never cease to tremor and fill her life with the simple joy that now, she is a mother.   The beauty of a rose on a hillside, the grass nestling it [...]

Go Kill Yourself

I really hate myself. I really do. I do stuff that is just plain evil. I seek after the wrong things. I do things that are utterly unpleasing to God. I am so far from God’s desire for me that it isn’t even funny. Every time I try to do right I don’t make it. [...]

4 Appetites that Change Your Life

I have been thinking about appetites lately. It started back when I listened to the Reformer’s Unanimous message on Principle # 4 again: “You cannot satisfy a fleshly appetite by indulging in it,” a couple weeks or so ago. It is really a very good principle. There is a lot of truth packed into it. [...]

Pity…

I actually noticed this by accident. Okay I lied. It was a miracle that I noticed this, and I am very grateful to God that He showed it to me. I was meditating on this Psalm, and was struck by the beauty of its promises and truths, but was also struck by the oddity of [...]

Validation, an Awesome Movie

If you haven’t noticed, I love movies. Period. Even movies that are from worldviews that are absolutely opposed to mine. I just like movies. But this one I love. I absolutely think it is one of the best short films I have watched, and I think you are absolutely missing out if you don’t sit [...]

I Am In Love!

I like to put riddles in my statuses, and yesterday was no exception. I posted a short, 42 character message to twitter, buzz, and facebook, and sparked an explosion of responses like none other. The status was this: “I have a girlfriend; I am in love; she is perfect.” Some who knew me very well [...]

Red and White Hearts

1 Timothy 5:1-2 Rebuke not an elder, but entreat [him] as a father; [and] the younger men as brethren; 2 The elder women as mothers; the younger as sisters, with all purity. I was going to use the above verse to talk about how we ought, as young men, to treat our sisters in Christ. [...]

Dust Love Come

Greetings, Here is a poem I wrote a while ago. Let me know what you think. I don’t write much poetry. Dust Tears Never Forever Stifling my spirit Broken, and chained, coming loose When will my heart be wholly unified with His own? Love Hope Always Together His sweet Spirit here Weak and wounded, yet, [...]
