I can remember two separate mornings in my life, when I woke up early because I couldn’t breathe.

DECISION WITHOUT DETERMINATION
Some choose and pray a prayer. This is the great heresy of the last hundred years. I made a choice when I was ten. But there is no determination. I have been convinced by the Lord that a decision without determination and effort is absolutely meaningless.

“At The Foot Of The Cross”
A poem by Naomi Durik
The ground is level at the foot of the cross
God shows no preference there,
He sent His dear Son to die for all
The sins of the world to bear.

It’s for all who will accept Him by grace,
Salvation is

THE MORE LOVING ONE
Looking up at the stars, I know quite well
That, for all they care, I can go to hell,
But on earth indifference is the least

With a passion for us we could not return?
If equal affection cannot
