Freedom and Victory: That’s Her Name!

To have a name is a very special, precious and priceless thing. It’s a symbol of belonging and that you are loved. However, many people in this world have names and yet they do not feel nor are they treated as special, precious and priceless knowing a great love like a sweeping tidal wave of love; a warm embrace on a cool night or a blanket to cover them and keep them safe. This post is for all those who see themselves as the nameless; who see themselves as not special, precious and priceless. For all those who are not receiving such a great love. I want you to know that you are special, precious and priceless before the eyes of God, and Jesus, is willing to fill every empty place you have in you with all His love. I now invite you into my HEART...

Youthful Aging: A Page from My Ignorance

Youthful ignorance,

How sweet it was.

Now I look back and shake my head,

Oh what was I thinking of

~Flavio A. Lugo~

When I was young, I described myself as the energizer bunny. Remember those commercials... ‘He keeps going and going and going.’ My stamina and endurance seemed to have no end. Whether it be sports or sexual activity, I was never satisfied and always wanted more. With that said, I now invite you into my HEART...

It’s By Grace: Tidal Wave of Love (part 1 of 2)

In a world where the word lavish means: money, multiple sex partners, drugs, materialism, corporate jobs to match corporate jets to match corporate greed, CEO compensations, over-sized homes, over-sized contracts, million dollar vacations and weddings to match, it is hard to comprehend lavish as being anything other than what we have gained dishonestly or by corruptible scruples. Beloved, this was taken from a devotional I read entitled, “God’s Lavish Love” from Max Lucado’s: “Wild Grace” written specifically for teenagers. I present an opportunity to you that is presented to me. This opportunity is getting to know and ultimately embracing the very heart of God. With that said, I now invite you into my HEART...

Atheist/Christian: An Instagram Debate

An Instagram Debate

Beloved, this all started with someone with the username: @geekychristian. The below contains two snap shots: One from @geekychristian and the other from the atheist from Boston @bostonatheist. I have also included a response from a Christian who wasn’t debating this Atheist but rather shared what he as a former unbeliever in practically everything and everyone including himself had to say on the matter. With that said, I now invite you into my HEART...

Closing Reflection: The Gospel

The Miniature Sword: Our Ally or the World’s Greatest Enemy

                            

Beloved, for the last four years, what I have been so wonderfully consumed by, has been Jesus. He has shown me many great things, and I know what He is yet to show me, shall be even more wonderful. For the last four years I have often reflected on my years prior to Jesus, and these years have been years where I have used a miniature weapon to hurt, sever and destroy. I was greatly filled with hate, anger, guilt, shame and disgust for myself. I am so incredibly thankful that today, I am forgiven of all my sin, and now I am more educated of this great weapon that secretly lurks about seeking to destroy others along with the one who wields it callously. With that said, I now invite you into my HEART...
