Afraid of God’s Plans?

Some people are at war with God’s will in their lives. The root of this is usually fear. In fact, I think the driving force behind many rebels is fear. There is a phrase that plays over and over in their minds that goes like this, ‘if I do exactly what God directs, then He’ll make me...

What do you expect?

I have a funny memory of sitting across the table at a Denny’s from my buddy a few years ago. He had ordered a coke to drink and I had ordered a orange juice. When the drinks came I was watching his glass of coke as I took a drink of my orange juice. As soon as the OJ got into my mouth I...
