Freedom, Guns and Jesus

I learned how to tie my shoes last week. No Joke. I have this pair of leather shoes with rawhide laces, and they’d always come untied unless I’d tie a double knot. I’ve been proud of myself for my entire life for being able to tie my shoes so fast.  I have always done it [...]

I have an uncle who teaches Eastern Philosophy.  He taught me how to meditate. He tried to teach me that equality with God is something to be grasped.  But that’s not fair.  What he really meant was that when we are fully realized, we come into the knowledge that we are one with God, and [...]

This morning, I was asking God to complete the healing of a couple I prayed for in church yesterday. As I was praying, I was examining my motives, and asked God for a mantle of humility to be on me, and that he would give me the tools (annointing for and gifts of healing, prophesy, [...]

Feeling really blessed of late.  It’s been a while since I posted, because I have been very busy working.  Work that is a blessing from God, after He told me to go to Ukraine for a missions trip, and blessing that followed obedience. When the opportunity arose, I saw it as not possible.  Money.  It [...]

AGAIN!  I had most of a week with almost no business.  Got stressed out, questioning, begging, whining.  Hearing God say “I will hold you.  Just relax.”  Started Friday on my kayak, just after sunrise, just being me.  Loved it.  As soon as I was done, the phone started ringing.  Got enough work Friday and Saturday [...]

Wow.  The journey continues, and it’s getting exciting. “A few months back, I prayed that I would someday be able to walk in freedom, above and throughout all of life’s systems….  “ Physically:  I have found a product that has basically raised me above many of my physical issues.  I like it so much, I [...]

A few months back, I prayed that I would someday be able to walk in freedom, above and throughout all of life’s systems….  kind of like Neo, once he realized that he knew the code and was no longer bound by it. Little did I know that freedom is not in fashion.  The freedom to [...]

I’ve always been big on boundaries. Boundaries are the set of rules which determine whom and which things will be allowed to affect you.  Boundaries require conviction, discretion, and tact, as they are most often applied to situations where people ask you to do or be a part of something that is ultimately going to have [...]

I just can’t believe what I’m hearing and seeing. The balance of power:  We have spent decades enabling the weak and rewarding non-performers; the current mortgage bail-out is a classic example of how our society is hell-bent on re-distributing money and power from the haves (who have earned it) to the have-nots, who will make [...]

(answer at bottom) John 1:1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He created us, and He alone has the power to define us. Ultimate freedom is total submission to our creator. Submission means that we willingly, actively give up choice and take our orders [...]
