To be non-committal
Commit your way to the LORD; trust in him and he will do this – Psalm 37:5 Personally, one of the things I dislike about technology is how easy it is to be non-committal. If we don’t want to go to something, we can just text someone and tell them we can’t make it. Commitment […]

Friday // Steel :: Integrity
Till I die I will not deny my integrity. – Job 27:5b Integrity gives one the ability to be honest, and have high morals. Something so simple yet can be so difficult. One might be even to say that there seem to be less and less people with integrity. Where has integrity Gone? It still […]

Whoever acknowledges me before others, I will also acknowledge before my Father in heaven. – Matthew 10:32 Its easy to let a day go by and really not give to much throught to our relationship with Jesus. If its easy to do in our mind then it must be really easy in our everyday speech […]
