But I will remember the LORD’s deeds; yes, I will remember your wondrous acts from times long past. I will meditate on all your works; I will ponder your deeds.

Who Are You Pleasing?

Am I trying to win over human beings or God? Or am I trying to please people? Galatians 1:10a Last week I was talking to my BFF. I mentioned that I have to be mindful of not “people pleasing”.

The Lord, the God of their ancestors, repeatedly sent his prophets to warn them, for he had compassion on his people and his Temple.  But the people mocked these messengers of God and despised their words. They scoffed at the prophets until the Lord’s anger could no longer be restrained and nothing could be done. (2 Chronicles 36:15-16)Continue reading “Sound Familiar?”

A Reed to A Rock

Simon Peter answered, “You are the Messiah, the Son of the living God”. Jesus replied, “Blessed are you, Simon son of Jonah, for this was not revealed to you by flesh and blood, but by my Father in heaven.  And I tell you that you are Peter, and on this rock I will build my church, and theContinue reading “A Reed to A Rock”
