Healing a Soul

The context here is John 5:1-15. Verse five is what hit me the hardest: “One man was there who had been sick for 38 years.” You can be healed of a condition, but how do you recover from being trained into a mindset, or from having your mindset reinforced by your circumstances? Thirty-eight years. How … Continue reading Healing a Soul →

Iterative Revelation: Generations

This has been hanging around in the back of my mind for a couple months now, but has been very challenging to articulate. Twice, I was praying by myself in my truck, and God stirred something in my spirit about generations. I can best describe it using the following example. Let’s say you lived a … Continue reading Iterative Revelation: Generations →

Raise Your Standards

Tony Robbins' teachings on this shifted my thinking into my current perspective on this subject. He has commented that "you don't always get your shoulds, but you always get your musts"...applying this principle to everything from income level to fitness. Most people 'should' go to the gym, but the people who actually follow through are … Continue reading Raise Your Standards →

Connection

The following is a from a lecture by psychology professor Jordan B Peterson. Here, he makes reference to King Arthur, the knights of the round table, and the quest for the Holy Grail: “Where do you look for the most valuable thing when you don’t know where it is? Well, each of the knights looks … Continue reading Connection →

Eternity Felt

When you pursue things other than God's design for your life, those things render their own judgement. Those things become hell when they are placed on the throne of infinity. Infinity, eternity: that is a interesting concept. Eternity, as far as I have felt it, is a condition of the human heart. If you have … Continue reading Eternity Felt →

Deferring Hope and Faith

Even though a person may preach spiritual truths to a crowd, the message is usually for the person preaching it. If you feel like God has put a message in your heart to share, you are the primary intended recipient of that message. If it’s really burning in your heart, that may be a sign … Continue reading Deferring Hope and Faith →

How do you Attract Success?

I'm just asking for the sake of provoking thought.  I was thinking about how the 'law of attraction' still seems like a rather nebulous concept. You mean, I could get rich by thinking myself to be rich? The frequencies of my thoughts will attract the riches? Man, I don't know. I think the objection I … Continue reading How do you Attract Success? →

Manifest Forgiveness

This post is a follow up to Effective Humility I think there is a time and a place where spiritual conviction just totally wipes a person out and they fall on their face before God. However, as I've been on my spiritual walk, I have found a different death to self needed, which is a death … Continue reading Manifest Forgiveness →

Pilgrimage and Horizons of Self

It is profound to me that the Bible tends to reflect back to a person 1.) who they are, and 2.) what they are looking for. It could be argued that this is purely a natural psychological phenomenon, but what if instead of being merely natural, the occurrence of this phenomenon was providential? What a … Continue reading Pilgrimage and Horizons of Self →

Good News vs. Bad News

The thing about the doctrine of hell, as I have known it, is that in contrast to the severity of it, nothing in this temporary life should matter. For real, given that doctrine, no enterprise should be worthwhile except standing on a soapbox warning loudly about the coming destruction. And yet, in the face that … Continue reading Good News vs. Bad News →
