Lately, our world celebrates religious holidays, without actually celebrating the meaning of the holiday. For Christmas, we say no longer say "Merry Christmas!".

Invest Your Time Well, To Feel Peace
This morning there was a baby crying in Costco, as her mom was in line to check out. I looked back at her and smiled.

I told her that I have been there,… Continue reading Invest Your Time Well, To Feel Peace
The Holy Spirit Gives Us the Right Words
God wants everyone on earth to hear the gospel and make a choice to believe or not to believe. As Christians, it is our job to share the gospel.

The first commandment in the bible is "You shall have no other Gods before me." God created this whole amazing universe, and he doesn't want us to worship false gods. There is only one God. Everything in this universe is by his design, including every person. When we cherish and respect God's name, the sun… Continue reading Revere God’s Name

The Ten Commandments… Continue reading The Ten Commandments

The huge, fluffy snowflakes keep falling and accumulating. It looks like a winter wonderland. It… Continue reading Put On the Armor of Light
