Leaders.

                                                                                Leaders. Boss Leader or Servant Leader? Jesus said to them, “You Will Indeed Drink From My Cup”, but to sit at my right or left is not for me to grant.   These places belong to those whom they have been prepared by my Father.   When the ten heard about this, they were indignant with the two brothers.   Jesus called them together and said, “You know that the rulers of the Gentiles ‘lord it over them”.   “Not so with you”.   Instead, whoever wants to become great among you “Must Be Your Servant”, and whoever wants to be first must be your slave-“Just As The Son of Man Did Not Come to Be Served”, “But To Serve”, and to “give his life as a ransom for many”.   (Matthew 20:23-28) Boss Lea...

Passing Through Time.

                                                                 Passing Through Time. Nothing Wrong with being Another Day Old. Show me, Lord, my life’s end and the number of my days; let me know how fleeting my life is.  (Psalms 39:4-5) For we are strangers and sojourners before You, just as all our fathers were.  Our days on earth are like a shadow, and there is no hope.  (1 Chronicles 29:15) And sware by Him that liveth for ever and ever, who created heaven,, and the things that therein are, and the earth, and the things which are therein, that there shall be “time” no Longer.  (Revelation 10:6)  God Created Time and God Shall Bring Time to an End. The Bible says, Wise people think about death; fools think about being happy. Our Daily Nugget is letting us know that “Time Waits For No ...

Give.

                                                                                  Give.   A First Step In Receiving.  Give and it shall be given to you.  A good measure, pressed down, shaken together and running over, “will be” poured into your lap.  For with the measure you use, “it will be” measured to you.  (Luke 6:38) Our God is a God of equal weights and equal measure.  What we Give, “determines” What we Receive.  Good and Bad. Our Daily Nugget is Luke giving us Wisdom on what happens when we Give.  When we give good or bad to another person, good or bad will be given back to us, with the same measure or intensity with which we gave it to another.  If we run to help another, God will see to it that another runs to help us; wit...

Chaos.

                                                                                 Chaos.   When Love Leaves, Chaos Enters. I have told you these things, so that “In Me You May Have Peace”.   In this world you will have trouble (chaos).   “But Take Heart”!   “I Have Overcome The World”.   (John 16:33) When Love Enters, Chaos “Must” Leave.   Our Daily Nugget is Jesus “Promising His Followers Peace Through Him”, despite the inevitability of facing tribulation and trouble (chaos) in the world.   Jesus encourages us to “take heart” or “be of good cheer” because “He Has Overcome The World”, offering Hope and Victory over earthly struggles.   Count it All Joy! Chaos “Is Not” Chaotic to the Heart/Mind that is   “Stayed On Jesus”.   Chaos - The s...

Where is Your Reward?

                                                                  Where Is Your Reward? Is Your Reward in “This Life” or the “Life to Come”? Rise up, Lord, confront them, bring them down; with your sword “Rescue Me From The Wicked”.  By your hand “save me” from such people, Lord, from those of this world whose “Reward Is In This Life”.  May what you have stored up for the wicked fill their bellies; may their children gorge themselves on it, and may there be leftovers for their little ones.  (Psalms 17:13&14) If our Reward is in This Life, we will utilize the World’s ways of living;  if our Reward is in the Life to come, we will utilize The Word’s way of living. Reward - A recompense, wages, or return given by God for actions, “whether good or bad”.  Our Rewards are either Life or Death. ...

Perspective!

                                                                             Perspective! The Word or The World? So we “Fix Our Eyes” not on what is seen, but on what is unseen, since what is seen is temporary (not real), but what is unseen is eternal (is real).   (2 Corinthians 4:18) What we Think or Focus On, “Produces Our Perspective”! Our Daily Nugget encourages  “Focusing” on spiritual, everlasting truths rather than temporary earthly struggles.  A wise person thinks about death, a fool thinks about being happy.  Each “Focus” gives us a different Perspective.  To focus on death, encourages us to Live Right today.  To Focus on Being Happy leads us to Live Wrong Today.  Our Living Follows Our Focus.  Our Perspective is our Focus.  Perspec...
