Soul Cleanse






I love eating out, don’t you? McDonald, Chili’s, TG Fridays all have something in common—it’s food raises the cholesterol. But they're so good! The fries, hamburgers, pastas, clogs the arteries and raises the triglycerides.  Just the other day my doctor tells me to reframe from fast-foods because its toxic.  It got me thinking about something else--the soul. Have you thought about what are you filling you soul? Are you allowing negative thoughts fester in your mind or watching Inappropriate shows? What about allowing unforgiveness linger on your heart too long. Oh what about envy and jealousy setting up house in you? The Bible speaks about those damaging the soul. Don’t forget to put down lies, hatred, and name-calling.  I understand that if you are struggling with these sins and others, you are human and a working progress—we all are. Keep in mind if you rid yourself of the ills the Bible calls sin, you will have a healthy, blessed and enjoyable life here on earth and a blissful life in Heaven. Sin is fun but when has accomplished its goal with you, no longer will you worry about mind numbing things like weight gain, diabetes and cholesterol. Your new worry will be Hell.  Get rid of toxins of the soul and enjoy peace of mind, spirit, and body.  Take your soul on the treadmill and get rid of things weighing you down.  Your soul will be better for it.

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...

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...
