That’s What I Like!




Bruno Mars wrote a song entitled, “That’s What I Like.”   He goes on to sing, “jewelry shining so bright, Lucky for you, that's what I like.”  You know what? That what I like.  You like jewelry don't you?  I know where we can find some.  Heaven! Keep that place in your view finder.  That's a goal to be achieved. Revelations describes parts of Heaven and it's jewelry items. Revelations 21:21 says, “…the street of the city is pure gold, as it were transparent glass.” Oh baby! Think about it! There are people alive killing for gold. Many have tried robbing banks for it.  We get to walk on it. That’s what I like. I like that God’s people will be celebrities in Heaven, having crowns on their heads like Queen Elizabeth. You know what else will be an awesome site in Heaven, the gates to the city is make of pearls! I wonder if that door is heavy.  I'm having a ladder, screw driver and a shovel buried with me. That way, if I'm on the outside, I will go over the wall, dig a tunnel or take that door off and run with it HA!  I know, I have to obey the Master and He will let me in.  I'm having fun with you. But you know the best part of all of this is there's no darkness there. Never have to look over  your shoulder again and every night is a party because the glory of God gives the place light and its lamp is the Lamb (Revelations 21:23). What a joy. That's what I like. Have I gotten you excited about the Heaven? Good, now live for the One who died for you.  I'll see you there!

God's Timeout!

Even in the mist of your trials, God provides prosperity and peace.  In Jeremiah 29, God told His people that after captivity, after their time-out, He would restore them to Jerusalem.  The people’s response was to simply to listen and obey.  Such a simple task, yet, not easily done. Are you a doer of God’s word? Does others see God in your actions? Do you see yourself, your actions, and your thoughts when you read God’s word?   James talks about looking into God’s mirror and walking away forgetting what you look like (James 1:23-24).  Trials are not for you to point the finger at others or to use as a pawn to make idle promises to do better.    Trials designed to bring you closer to God, to embrace His love, mercy, and grace.  Remember raising your children (if you had any) and after you scold them, they ran to you with tears in their eyes and hug you tightly, a silent plea for forgiveness.  When Go...

Understanding It Better By and By

    Funny how life has a way of showing you what you’re made of.  When adversity hits, what you say you wouldn't do becomes easier to do.  When the rubber meets the road, yes! you do the unthinkable.  Let's say you have a house fire and on the second floor is your baby and mom. You can only save one, which would it be? I've heard many say they would grab the baby since mom has been around a long time. I couldn't say.  I'm not in that situation right now.  There's no way to know what to do until tragedy hits.  Some can handle atrocities, whereas; other have no clue how to maneuver suffering nor know why hardship occurs.  Stop trying to figure out why hardships happens--only the Father knows.  He won't  have you guessing long.      The underlining reason at the end of your trials gives away the mystery. Experiencing hardship isn't fun but you will come out with more insight than ever before....

Trust God

Proverbs 3:5-6: Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways submit to him, and he will make your paths straight ( NIV ). “Police, Police, a young man stole my bike.”   Minutes earlier the gentleman stops at the local store. Thirsty from the summer heat, he decides to get a drink.   Dismounting his bike, a kind young man greets him with a smile and offers to watch the bike. Grateful for the offer, the gentleman hands over the bike.   He enters the store. On returning, the bike and young man had vanished. The gentleman had a good heart, but he had misplaced trust.   Trust in the Lord is paramount (Hebrews 11:6). Life cannot be maneuver through our wisdom, we need the wisdom of the Savior.   He alone can handle our life cycle issues.   A fulfill and successful life with Jesus comes through obedience and surrender. The Lord then guides us into an everlasting peace despite difficulties and h...
