"The signs of the times have never dictated the way that the Church is called to live. Jesus is the standard. Follow Jesus!"
— Cameron Beyenberg"Hope is the most important component of humanity’s greatest achievements, although it may not be recognized as such."
In this season of Advent as we look forward to the celebration of our Lord’s coming and revel in the anticipation of his return, I want to remind you all, my friends, to rejoice! We are all sojourners on different journeys, and we move through different terrains of the spirit (some call these seasons of the spirit), but in every season Emmanuel: God is with us. Thus, in every season we have hope! Although, we are on different journeys, our destination is the same and so is our confession. Rejoice, my friends!
God is faithful, and God’s faithfulness is efficacious regardless of our belief or our participation. However, prayer is one of the modes in which we are invited to participate with God in enacting his faithfulness, and to taste of that faithfulness ecstatically.
"But we do not want you to be uninformed, brothers, about those who are asleep, that you may not grieve as others do who have no hope. For since we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so, through Jesus, God will bring with him those who have fallen asleep. For this we declare to you by a word from the Lord, that we who are alive, who are left until the coming of the Lord, will not precede those who have fallen asleep."
— 1 Thessalonians 4:13-15 [Rest In Peace Grandpa]
What once was my hiding place became my cage
still He came for me, even though it caused Him to bleed, Jesus came for me."Blood shed for joy. Love like a consuming fire. Liberty from sin. Rejoice for these are the makings of an unshakable kingdom."
— Hebrews12"I still believe that there is nothing more beautiful than the love you have for me, God."
