    We are strangers in this world, on vacation in a foreign land, with advantages the natives of this world don't even begin to understand. But do we realize what those advantages are, and what difference those blessings can mean to our lives?

    As Christians we may be traveling on the same "airplane" as the rest of the world. But we have advantages and blessings everyone else does not. We're literally traveling 1st class. But what does that mean and how does that change us?

    OPEN: A plane was on its way to London when a blonde woman in economy class got up and moved into an open seat in the first class section. The flight attendant saw her do this, and politely informed her that she had to sit in economy because that's the ticket she paid for The blonde replied, ...read more

     | 6,173 views

    To accomplish God’s good purpose, we are to respect all people, love other believers, fear God, and honor those who rule over us - even when something doesn’t seem good to us. These kinds of actions may fan a spark of belief in those who observe our respo

    Opening illustration: Sometimes when I want to start a fire, the wind puts it out. But when I try to keep a fire burning, wind keeps it going. So, in the first situation, I label wind “bad” because it thwarts my plans; in the other, I label it “good” because it helps me ...read more

     | 3,912 views

    God looks at us as ‘living stones’ but not many of us live up to the expectation of God, do we?

    Mighty Wall! 1 Peter 2:5 “you also, as living stones, are being built up a spiritual house, a holy priesthood, to offer up spiritual sacrifices acceptable to God through Jesus Christ.” I would like to share an illustration I read somewhere: “There’s a story about a king of ...read more

     | 4,791 views

    I love our country as much as anyone but, I’m afraid we are heading in the direction of Gods judgment upon us real quick. The majority of the people are looking to our government for protection and the most are putting their trust in it instead of God

    Blinded By Darkness

    Contributed by Mike Reed on Jul 4, 2014
     | 9,453 views

    We commonly associate temporary blindness with bright light, such as looking directly into the sun. It seems strange, then, to read a scripture which tells us that we can be blinded by the darkness! Darkness makes the eyes more alert, more receptive.
