Psa 26:1  A Psalm of David. Judge me, O LORD; for I have walked in mine integrity: I have trusted also in the LORD; therefore I shall not slide. Ever had a period in your life when you were backsliding from the Lord? I think nearly every person that has been a Christian any length [...]

In the course of our lives, we will have the opportunity to see many people rise and fall for various reasons. These situations will create many lessons that can be learned to better ourselves.

I have recently finished reading a book about the theory of success called Outliers by Malcom Gladwell.

It’s so easy to read things quickly during your morning Bible reading and miss out on blessings simply because you are not understanding what the words mean. Take this passage for example: 2Ti 1:6 Wherefore I put thee in remembrance that thou stir up the gift of God, which is in thee by the putting [...]

Pro 29:24 Whoso is partner with a thief hateth his own soul: he heareth cursing, and betrayeth it not. This is an interesting verse in Proverbs.
