While there have no doubt been some great people that have taught me in my life, I’d still say that my greatest lessons haven’t been received from people (at least directly).

Why Does God Hate Sin? What are the Effects and Costs of Sin?
—
by
Because every time we sin, it makes us naked, scared, and causes us to hide in shame when God calls out to us….The more we want God, the less sin becomes a list of rules we want to rebel against, and the Commandments’ “can’t dos” are transformed into directions that were designed so we can…

Feathers A Christian Poem About Letting Go of Fear and Worry
—
by
Feathers The weight of the world is a feather in the hand of its maker. It does not burden, break, or bury the one who reigns outside of Time and Space’s domain.

The Tragedy of The Parable of the Prodigal Son
—
by
No single sin disqualifies you from the love of God, but your pride disqualifies God from your love. It is the deadliest and most serious of all sins. Yes, even worse than murder. Maybe not in the eyes of the law but in the eyes of God.

Contemplating and Discerning God’s Will
—

An Outstretched HandGrace waits patiently for everyonelike Charon beside the River Styx.But Grace requires no coinagefor sin’s payment has been nixed.The sound of a boulder’s rumble,louder to the soul than deafening thunder,is the receipt for the cost of transgression, paid in full.It leaves even angels still in wonderat the depth of love that bears such…

Inspirational Poem About Living For God and Not the World

They Say… They say follow your heart, but I’m thoroughly convinced mine doesn’t know where the hell it’s going. They say the heart wants what the heart wants. Mine wants to pull down the shades and get rip-roaring drunk. They say love yourself. I think if I love myself any more I’m going to join…
