Why This? Why Now?

"Be strong and very courageous. Be careful to obey all the Law My servant Moses gave you: do not turn from it to the right or to the left, that you may be successful wherever you go. Do not let this Book of the Law depart from your mouth:meditate on it day and night, so that you may be careful to do everything written in it. Then you will be prosperous and successful." Joshua 1:7-8

What has happened to us? What has happened our desire to hear from God? Why do we want mediators? In the persecution days for instance in China people would smuggle in pages of the Bible and ponder over them until they were threadbare...why is it that in this day of religious freedom we spend our wealth on books and opinions of other Christians instead of spending time with His Word?

This blog is dedicated to studying God's Word, Sharing God's presence in our lives, and sticking to Christianity the way it is defined by the Bible.

I am so tired of hearing 'convenient' versions of the Word from our teachers. We fashion it to our wants, and ignore it where it requires change in us. We have grown way too comfortable with the World that there is very little different between us and the World.

Join me in prayer that we shall change....that we shall go back to God's feet and count it all joy when we face persecution for his Name.

Phil 1:6
