A Choice for Now

In my last post, Choosing Between Good Things, I mentioned I might have to put my blog on hiatus. I've decided that instead of a full stop, I'm going to post on it when I can instead of posting regularly. As for a few other choices going on in life, I've got those...

Choosing Between Good Things

I have things to plan and work for regarding the future, and to do so I must figure out what things to give up in the present, if only temporarily. I don't want to give things up. I feel like I shouldn't give up some of them. But I do need to at least consider doing...

All of the Holy Spirit, All of Me

When you believe in and realize you need what Jesus did for us in His life, burial, and resurrection (in short, getting saved), you get the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit "part" of God comes to live in you, giving you free and full access to all the help and direction...
