Going Not knowing?


Apparently, the experts on all thing ‘Men’ say that men find it difficult to ask for directions – especially when they are lost driving the wife or family to a very important meeting, a vacation destination or anywhere for that matter. I don’t really know if it is a man thing, but some suggest that men feel less manly asking for directions. I don’t know about you, but it doesn’t bother me at all, to stop at a gas station and just simply ask for help. I rather do that than drive around wearing my ego on my shoulder acting as if I know where I am going. Fortunately, technology has given us Garmin, Magellin, Furuno, TomTom, iCOM, Lowrance, RayMarinem DeLorme GPS devices to help us navigate around and be able to reach our destination and not get lost. These devices also assure us that no matter where you are,  if you miss your turn, you can rest assured that your device is going to recalculate your place to set you right back on track.

The formula hasn’t changed: Your first step to next step ventures

Your first step to next step ventures is taking time – short or extended times of worship and fasting and waiting on the Holy Spirit to speak. I am afraid too many have missed this all important step and have ended up wasting their lives simply …

He’s not finished with me yet!


In the year that King Uzziah died I saw the Lord sitting upon a throne, high and lifted up; and the train of his robe filled the temple. Above him stood the seraphim. Each had six wings: with two he covered his face, and with two he covered his feet, and with two he flew. And one called to another and said: “Holy, holy, holy is the LORD of hosts; the whole earth is full of his glory!” And the foundations of the thresholds shook at the voice of him who called, and the house was filled with smoke. And I said: “Woe is me! For I am lost; for I am a man of unclean lips, and I dwell in the midst of a people of unclean lips; for my eyes have seen the King, the LORD of hosts!” I hope I can impress on you today through this short passage the need to live daily in a spirit of worship and continuous repentance. I don’t think you can truly get to a genuine, …
