Looking Back

When we look back we stop moving forward. Looking back encompasses several thoughts. Looking back means we lose our focus. Looking back means we lose our commitment. Looking back means we miss sin. Looking back means we would rather serve our self. Looking back means the narrow way is not our desire. Looking back is how we get led a stray. Looking back is not always a statement of peering into the past. It can easily mean we desire things that are not of God. If we look back, we cannot get into Heaven. We must keep our focus on Christ. There is no going back once we start in the Lord..


“But Jesus said to him, “No one, having put his hand to the plow, and looking back, is fit for the kingdom of God.”” Luke 9:62
“What shall we say then? Shall we continue in sin, that grace may abound?” Rom. 6:1
“ But it is happened unto them according to the true proverb, The dog is turned to his own vomit again; and the sow that was washed to her wallowing in the mire.”  2 Pet. 2:22
 Keep focused on God. Never look back. There is nothing left for us in the world of sin. Keep working hard. :)
Gal. 1:3-5

Self- control

Be strong and steadfast. Don't let your feelings and anger rule you. Be careful to keep your wrath from pouring from your mouth. Such things have no business controlling your life. It damages others. It damages you even more! Process your emotions and stay self-controlled.  Glorify God in all you do! :) (Col. 3:17) "A fool vents all his feelings, But a wise man holds them back." Proverbs 29:11 "So then, my beloved brethren, let every man be swift to hear, slow to speak, slow to wrath; for the wrath of man does not produce the righteousness of God." James 1:19-20 Keep up all the good work! Look for opportunities to serve and spread the Word. Encourage a brother or sister today. :) Gal. 1:3-5

The Core

The center of all things is life.  Our lives can be run by our selfish ambitions or the life that Christ gives. That decision rest in your hands. If your life revolves around you and what you want, then you will be rewarded accordingly. However, if your life revolves around Christ there is a crown of life awaiting you. Who has to get out of the way for this to happen? You do. You have to crucify yourself. You must say “It is no longer I who lives, but Christ lives in me!”  We must enthrone Christ in our lives. Make your life Christ centered.  Start today. “But you have not so learned Christ, if indeed you have heard Him and have been taught by Him, as the truth is in Jesus:  that you put off, concerning your former conduct, the old man which grows corrupt according to the deceitful lusts, and be renewed in the spirit of your mind, and that you put on the new man which was created according to God, in true righteousness and holiness.” Eph. 4:20-24 "I ha...

Family Light

Make sure your light is always shining no matter what your family is doing. “You are the salt of the earth; but if the salt loses its flavor, how shall it be seasoned? It is then good for nothing but to be thrown out and trampled underfoot by men.   “You are the light of the world. A city that is set on a hill cannot be hidden. Nor do they light a lamp and put it under a basket, but on a lampstand, and it gives light to all who are in the house. Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works and glorify your Father in heaven.” Matthew 5:13-16 NKJV
