When God Speaks...    People Listen Do you ever find yourself wondering why people are talking?  What they are saying?  And, wondering if you’ve missed something important?  That’s the difference between hearing sounds and actively listening to words. All too often I find myself in the position of knowing that someone is talking but not really paying attention to what they are saying.  Some people talk all the time and never say anything uplifting, or edifying; sometimes it’s too easy let my mind wander off and think about something else.  It’s an absolute truth that I need to guard my mind from certain things and certain people; but I really need to be an active listener when it comes to the things of God... Proverbs 4:20-22 (KJV) - My son, attend to my words; incline thine ear unto my sayings.  Let them not depart from thine eyes; keep them in the midst of thine heart.  For they are life unto those that find them, and health to...

Who am I?  What made me this way?  When did my life start getting better?  Where should I go?  Why am I here?  How am I supposed to live?  Proverbs 1:10 (KJV) – My son, if sinners entice thee, consent thou not.

What :  I consented…  I consented, then I became like them, and then I became worse than them.  You may be thinking to yourself that I have no right to offer you my advice if that’s the way I behaved; and you are right.  I don’t have any ri...

Gospel Tract The Fellowship Tract League I am a Child of The King, born again into the family of God through the blood sacrifice of Jesus Christ my Lord and Savior.  He is my strength and my power, my savior and my best friend.  He cares for me like no other; and it is my strong desire to serve Him, to honor Him, and to glorify Him in all that I think, say, or do.  My actions speak louder than my words; and I may be the only Bible that some of my friends and family will ever read... 1 Corinthians 10:31 (KJV) - Whether therefore ye eat, or drink, or whatsoever ye do, do all to the glory of God. I am the recipient of God’s many blessings and He loves me as no other ever has, or ever will.  He has saved me out of sin and debauchery to a life with purpose and reason.  No, I am not perfect, but He is!  It is my responsibility and my privilege to share the gospel, the good news, of Jesus Christ my Lord and Savior with others.  That is pa...
