God loves to find His children yearning after Him and seeking His presence. Please find encouragement here to embrace that quest.
“Oh, how long!” It is so easy to groan under the strain of waiting. We cry out. We complain. Why must we wait so long for God to answer our prayers and needs? Waiting is not something that comes easily or naturally. Often, we must wrestle for so long before we learn it. But, like... Continue Reading →
We often lie to ourselves. We say that we have given our hearts to the Lord. But what have we given, anything at all? We tell ourselves that we gave our hearts to God because we want to believe it is true. We tell ourselves we did because we have convinced ourselves that it is... Continue Reading →
There is one thing we should get crystal clear if we want to continue to call ourselves the remnant of Christ. That is if we truly want God to come into our hearts. Everyone who claims to believe in Christ would love to say, “Of course!” But the whole matter deserves more attention. Not everyone... Continue Reading →
When we stop asking ourselves this question, our answer will not be positive. We lose our chance when we stop asking if we will meet the Holy One. It would be easy for us to trust a choice we made once long ago. It would be nice to heave a sigh of relief and let... Continue Reading →

When our eyes open in the morning and our thoughts turn to God, we arrive late to that meeting. He was already there waiting for us. When we finally stop trying to handle our situation ourselves, we turn to Him for help. We find the Lord had been dying for us to come sooner. When... Continue Reading →

Christianity today walks down a similar road as the religions of old. Where we once directed the gaze of our souls to Power and wonder above, we hone in on ourselves. We lose the essence of worship.
