Saying is Sowing

Let the redeemed of the Lord say so. Psalm 107:2

We believe in the scriptural principle of sowing and reaping. We see the effects of this principle in the natural realm as well as the spiritual. We are certain that an oak tree will not grow from a thistle seed. Therefore we do not expect to receive hope and healing by speaking of our addiction as a lumbering giant which threatens to steal our sobriety.

We dare not speak of relapse, as this seed grows into a massive, poisonous vine which produces an itchy sensation known as irritable, restless, and discontent syndrome. We dare not speak of our past indiscretions as a boastful or laughable matter, for this seed will grow into a field of dandelion memories, brightly colored egotistical blooms which turn to hollow shams of fly away seeds, searching for another ego to embed. We dare not speak of our resentments, for this is the thicket which depletes our energy and slows our progress.

The words which produce a harvest we don’t want, ought never be sown by our voice.

A Date With Destiny

INJUSTICE IS SILENCED

A clue to your divine destiny is revealed in your desire to relieve human suffering.

You see that within the vulnerabilities of humanity, some of God’s children are susceptible to helplessness and hopelessness. They live on the fringe of society and have not been treated fairly.

You see that within their defenseless position, they are at extreme risk.

As you meet the physical and emotional needs of those who have been treated unfairly, you are silencing the voices from their past which have been telling them all their lives that they were insignificant and unworthy.

Your efforts to restore justice in an unjust society may seem overwhelming at times, but you can be assured that your work is not in vain.

God has promised to silence the voice of injustice, and He invites you to be part of the process.

Eternal Life

Eternal life occurs when a human spirit is awakened to the presence of God. This union between mortal and immortal, through Jesus Christ, creates a life force that cannot be destroyed. Once activated, this spiritual being releases divine energy into its human host, joining the creature to the presence and purpose of its Creator.

Jesus defined eternal life this way:

Now this is eternal life: that they may know you, the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom you have sent. John 17:3

Therefore, the man who approached Jesus was, in essence, asking "How can I really know you?" How can I become acquainted with God in such a way that I experience all He created me to be?
