THE LATEST DECEPTION

The latest deception, written by Dan Brown, is out and getting all the media coverage that he desires. It's amazing to me, how diligently and how relentlessly the evil forces in this world pursue their convictions while we, who are given to a kinder, gentler opinion, sit silently.
We live in a country that is blessed with freedom of speech and that is as it should be. We do not protest the fact that others speak of their different opinion, but we are too hesitant to speak the truth in the face of a lie.
Followers of Christ know the 'source' of all deception and do not see the individual delivering the lie as the enemy, but do certainly believe that person has become an instrument in the hands of the one who would do harm to the Kingdom of God. Sometimes, what sells influences what we believe.
The enemies of God know just enough of the Truth to weave it into their deception. In the Garden of Eden, the serpent used this tactic skillfully.
Are we guilty of sitting silently by while the enemy pours out his lie to the innocent and unsuspecting who have not yet met with the Holy One of Israel?
The Dan Browns of this world are working. Are you?

MAKE IT WORTH WATCHING!

Today, most of us are going through the motions, day after day, not realizing what a gift life is, and what an opportunity we have to make a difference in this world of sorrow and saddness.
Some may respond that their world is not filled with sorrow and saddness, and that is wonderful, but to ignore that the world of many is just that, is extremely selfish.
They say that when the end of life comes that the life we have lived flashes before our eyes........make it worth watching! Get up in the lives of those less fortunate than you, love them up, bring them along. Let them know that they matter and that you love them.
Jesus said, "They will know you are Mine, by the love you have one for another."
Don't waste it.....burn it up for Him!

JUST KEEPING IT REAL

In the day we are living in, too many of us are just going through the motions. We live as if this is all there is with no hope for tomorrow.
Some of us put on a 'show' to be seen and read by others but we are numb inside. The 'show' will take us places we don't want to go and the price will be more than we can pay!
What is your passion? What motivates you to live life every day? Discover it and follow it! Follow that passion that consumes you and know one thing; YOU WERE BORN TO BE REAL, NOT TO BE PERFECT.
