Clothed part 1

Not too long ago I Ranted about nakedness. About how being naked it being vulnerable. Uncovered. Open and honest. Starting today I want to Rant about what it means to be clothed. So let's start with the beginning. After man realized and became ashamed of his nakedness--MAN was ashamed, not...

We all want to be loved. That's the basic human desire. The desire of our hearts. So treating others how we want to be treated is just loving people. That's as simple as I can make it. It's not about, "I like cookies so I'm going to give people cookies." Because not everybody likes cookies. And...

How you treat people matters. "Sticks and stones may break my bones but words will never hurt me"? Nah. Words can do serious damage. I prefer, "Keep your words soft and sweet, because you might have to eat them." Or, quite simply, the Thumper Rule: If you can't say something nice don't say anything...

I guess I better quote the verse I've been Ranting about. Matthew 7:12, "Therefore all things whatsoever ye would that men should do to you, do ye even so to them: for this is the law and the prophets." All of the Law of Moses and everything that the prophets preached and prophesied wrapped up in...

Do unto others as you would have them do unto you. That's the Golden Rule. But when we follow that rule, we have to make sure that we're doing unto others as THEY would have us do unto them. Not trying to push what WE want on people, but simply seeing a need and meeting it in the way that THEY need...

We've all heard the golden rule, right? Do unto other as you would have them do unto you. But for the next few days I want to kind of focus in on what I believe this really means. Because it doesn't mean "treat people how you want to be treated" in a specific sense. It doesn't mean, "I would really...

To end this Rant series I want to link two memory verses together. Psalm 27:9, "Hide not thy face far from me; put not thy servant away in anger: thou hast been my help; leave me not, neither forsake me, O God of my salvation." The cry of man's heart. Stay with me. Don't leave me. I know I messed...

In this world we will have tribulation. That's just the nature of the world. Stuff happens, to paraphrase Forrest Gump. The trick is to know the truth. The ultimate truth of the universe. That God is love and He loves you. That He--through His love--can keep you from falling. Can carry you through....

Life is hard. It just is. Look at the middle part of John 16:33, "...In the world ye shall have tribulation..." I've always said the hardest part of living is just that: Living. Showing up. Holding on. Not giving up. We always say, "Keep on keeping on, cuz what's the alternative? Giving up? Nah."...

We think we are holding on to God... but really God is holding on to us. And He will never let us go. So we can rest assured that no matter what we have to go through... we WILL get through it. Praise be to the Lord who can (and will, and does) keep us from falling. Guys. We don't have to keep...
