From Orphans to Royalty
The first time I read Ezekiel 16, I cried all the way through it. It's a story of God's heart, as a betrayed husband; with every jealousy, hurt, rage, or emotion felt by humans. Yet, whenever we're hurting, few consider if they're doing the same...
Hermeneutics
Hermeneutics Constantine is a hero of the Christian faith just because he stopped feeding them to the lions and supposedly converted to being a Christian. His children had a tutor named Lactantius who I often quote in regards to those who would...

A Little Bit of Something
“A Little Bit of Something is Better Than All of Nothing” is a phrase I remember since early childhood. In theory, it sounds logical. I'd rather have a little piece of candy than none at all. Wouldn't we all (unless you're diabetic, allergic or something)?
But, in reality, that phrase has very little truth. Though we still believe in its merit, it really means to settle for second best.
So many times, people settle. They settle for mediocrity in their walk, less than prosperity in their finances, a second rate calling when they rejected the first. They settle for a church closer to home, friends that don't place too many restrictions on their lifestyle, a quick prayer instead of quality time with God. They choose the easy road, a low road, the path of least resistance.
As a result, they choose a life of few blessing and even fewer miracles. They choose to barely squeeze through Heaven's gate when
they could walk a life of victory now. They choose to leave loved ones behind, to do everything the hard way, to live a life of heartache and despair. They choose to be their own God.
The truth is, a little bit of something isn't worth much at all.
