A is for Adoration

A is for Adoration
by Wendy Elizabeth Middleton

Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength. Mark 12:30

There are a few different Greek words that got translated into English as ‘love.’ Some mean affection, some mean a mother’s love for her child. The word Jesus used was agape. This is more than affection, more than the love a mother has for her child. This is devotion, commitment – Adoration. 

And on top of this Adoration Christ adds all – all – all – all.

Do You Know Your ABCs?

Do You Know Your ABC’s?

A: Admit
B: Believe
C: Confess

These are the ABCs of Salvation. They are the foundation of the Christian Life. Accept the gift of Salvation and you are born again, born into a new life that is completely different from the life you had before.

Welcome to the Kingdom of God on earth where your soul is secure and eternal blessings await.

But if you were expecting happy days and sunshine from here on out think again. In this world you will have trouble… this world will hate you because this world hates Christ …But take heart! I [Christ] have overcome the world. John 16:33; Matthew 10:22

How to Sandwich God Into Your Busy Schedule
Part Four: Who Has Time to Volunteer
by Wendy Elizabeth Middleton

There are different Kinds of gifts, but the same Spirit. There are different kinds of service, but the same Lord. There are different kinds of working, but the same God works all of them in all men. 1 Corinthians 12:4-6
You are a child of God, the beloved child of the King of the universe. As a child of the King you have certain obligations and responsibilities whether you like them or not, and mostly we tend to not like chores.

The world has made obligation and responsibility into dirty words to be ignored. But all actions have consequences. Doing what you shouldn’t do, and not doing what you should carries a price. Satan will tell you that you can only be free if you ignore your responsibilities. Be foot loose and fancy free… But if you do not make your car payments they will come and take your car away.
