Creating With Words
The words you use, to yourself and others, can make a tremendous difference in both your experience of life and results you generate. Kabbalah explains that G-d creates physical reality with words, and so do we.

Healing Your Life
Although we are all born gifted with tremendous potential to conquer life, few of us rise to the occasion. By the time we reach adulthood, most of our potential has been buried by years of corrupted beliefs. Like clouds blocking the sun, the brilliance of our own light is hidden by a mist of doubt.

The Abundant Life!
Count yourselves dead to sin but alive to God in Christ Jesus.
ROMANS 6:11
My friend Randy had given up trying to live the Christian life. He said, “I have tried, but have failed so many times. Nothing seems to work for me.” After listening to his account of his many failures and defeats, I began to explain the ministry of the Holy Spirit. Randy interrupted: “I know all about the Holy Spirit. I've read everything I can find, and nothing works for me.”
My thoughts turned to Romans 6. I asked him, “Randy, are you sure you're a Christian?”
“Yes,” he answered. “I'm sure.”
“How do you know?”

‘I'm Not A Christian, But I Play One On Sunday'
After more than three decades of church ministry, I have come to one unsettling conclusion. Actually, I've come to more than one conclusion, but this one is the most depressing.
That conclusion is simply this: all who say they are going to Heaven are not actually on the right path, going in the right direction. Most, of course, have the best intentions, but good intentions don't make up for going in the wrong direction.

God Loves You With the Love of God
Do you ever feel that what you read in some Christian books is not really God's truth at all, but is merely the opinion of the writer, dressed up in the clothing of truth? One such teaching is that we have to work very hard to please God, because he is just about fed up with us because of all our shortcomings. This is a teaching that is just plain wrong, according to Darin Hufford, and in his book, “The God's Honest Truth,” he sets out to correct it.

How to Forgive Someone
We've all heard the saying, “You have to forgive, but you don't have to forget.” I won't refute that, but you have to agree that a lot of people use that excuse to never ‘really' forgive at all. Are you one of those people?

Learning to Listen
The second verse of Amy Grant's song, "Angels Watching Over Me," reminds us that God has given His angels charge over us to keep us in all our ways - even when we are not aware they are there. Amy sings, "God only knows the times my life was threatened just today. A reckless car ran out of gas before it ran my way. Near misses all around me, accidents unknown, Though I never see with human eyes the hands that lead me home. But I know they're all around me all day and through the night. When the enemy is closing in, I know sometimes they fight To keep my fight from falling, I'll never turn away. If you're asking what's protecting me then you're gonna hear me say:" Angels Watching Over Me . . . ."
