What have you decided today or even before that you are going to be or do in your life?  Every one of our decisions in life begins with a DECIDED HEART, from the relatively simple choice of drinking water instead of soda to the much more life-impacting choice of being faithful to your spouse or [...]

I was at conference this weekend, and the one piece of wisdom that struck my heart the most soundly was this: “Everything begins with a decided heart.” I pondered how this applies to every single thing we do in our lives, good or bad.   I am going to be discussing this in my post [...]

“For we are God’s workmanship, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do.” – Ephesians 2:10 We have proceeded to the final portion of this verse, “…which God prepared in advance for us to do.” In prior posts, we looked at what it meant to be [...]
