Just me trying to be honest with God.

One of life’s biggies is to lay hold of all that God desires to be for us through faith in Christ.

So what does God want to be for me at this moment? Well, for one thing He invites us to join Him in it, and experience it through His wisdom and grace. He wakes us to life. There is a promise for every single thing we need every single moment of each day.

“He has given us his very great and precious promises, so that through them you may participate in the divine nature, having escaped the corruption in the world caused by evil desires.” 2Pt.1.4 Conversations Within” ts Aug 3, 2026



One kind act of substance is worth more than a hundred superficial acts for show.

Want to make a difference? Then make a difference that brings real benefit to others. Do not waste precious energy, on politics, for show or to look authentic. If you have to label it for others, it is probably empty. Most people know real goodness when they see it in action. 

“Be careful not to practice your righteousness in front of others to be seen by them. If you do, you will have no reward from your Father in heaven.” Jesus Conversations Within” ts Aug 1, 2026



An important rule when seeking to understanding the Bible

Do not interpret the Scriptures in one passage in such a manner that your understanding contradicts the Scriptures in another passage. Truth is consistently true.

“The sum of your word is truth, and every one of your righteous rules endures forever.” Ps.119.60 Conversations Within” ts Jul 31, 2026



 If any request is worth asking from God, it is worth asking boldly. 

The centurion who came to Jesus on behalf of a sick servant was humble, as all faith should be, but his faith was also bold. All faith should be bold. After all, our confidence is not in our faith, but in the generosity and wisdom of the person we put our faith in. Away with mealy mouthed prayers. 

“But the centurion replied, "Lord, I am not worthy to have you come under my roof, but only say the word, and my servant will be healed.” Mt.8 Conversations Within” ts Jul 30, 2026



“You give out hope like it's candy in your pocket.” The Postman

I pray for a contagious faith as I hope for what is promised. I hope for so many things, not in the sense of wishing they would happen, but in the sense of expecting something that I know is coming. The Heaven I hope for is solid as the promises that Jesus makes to all who trust Him.

"Always be prepared to give an answer to everyone who asks you to give the reason for the hope that you have." 1Pt.3 Conversations Within” ts Jul 30, 2026
