Be About Your Father's Business!

All to often we talk a good game but in the end we have not produced anything that points others to faith in Christ.  We are destined for greatness yes but in what ways are we moving to be accomplished in those areas in our lives.  In order to get some where on a bike, you have to exert some energy.  You have to be the man or the woman behind the machine pedaling and steering that machine until you have reached your desired destination.

What are you waiting for?  Do you think you are different than any one else that has to put in the effort, the work, the blood, sweat, and the tears? Nothing from nothing leaves nothing.  Although God will complete the work he began in all of us, with the creative power and the deposit of the Holy Spirit on the inside of us, we already came prepared and equipped to get the job done.  All God desires if we be willing to participate.  If we be willing to go wherever he leads us.  If we be willing to put some action to a lot of the talk we talk.

Faith without works is dead and talk is cheap.  Show others that Christ is alive by the life you live and the good works he has predestined for you to do in the earth.  God promises to make room, and he will give you opportunity but you too must activate the gift(s) on the inside of you and make it habit to do so.

Faithfully and consistently work towards the completion of your goals in order to make room for new goals and accomplishments.  Get out of your own way.  Stop complaining.  Focus and be about your Father's business.

When people notice you're gone for a minute, when you return, make sure you do with some Good News.  Make sure you return with some fruit.  Make sure you return with new revelation and new inspiration that will feed the hungry and destitute.

Don't put off what you can do today.  If tomorrow is cast into the oven then make the best of what you can do for the progression of the gospel sake!

Today, Ash Wednesday marks the beginning of the Lenten season. The lenten season is observed to better appreciate the death, and resurrection of Christ through self-examination, repentance, prayer, fasting, and self-denial. In addition, Ash Wednesday has another significant meaning for me. It was on this day, Ash Wednesday that the Lord brought me out of my induced coma in 2000, March 8th to be exact. Prior to that, I could only recall seeing my brother the night of the fire  in January who accompanied me in the ambulance while being transported to what was then called UMDNJ in Newark, NJ. On that Ash Wednesday, I can remember seeing both my grandmother and my mommy sitting in my hospital room. Grandma holding a can of Pepsi, and mommy doing something with my feet, lol. Probably clipping my toe nails. There is also that taste of chicken broth or soup I will never forget fed to me intravenously along with other fluids to sustain me while I was in a coma. Its been 16 years fr...
Diamonds, I just wanted to let you know that I appreciate each and every one of you. I pray that everything you have read so far has been a source of encouragement. 😊 Please have a safe and wonderful 4th of July holiday weekend! Sincerely and with the love of Christ, Rev. Dana
I heard it said once that people don't evangelize because they are too concerned about their finances. Instead of concerning ourselves with our finances, we need to make our trust in God a priority. Outside of God we will never have enough or be satisfied: therefore, we ought to totally rely upon the strength of God who is our Source and promised that we would not go without lack nor seed begging for bread. I've tried God at His word. There was a time I needed $500 and God laid me on the heart of someone and said, "God laid you on my heart to be a blessing to." The "things" we spend time worrying about that would potentially take our minds off of doing the work of God, God is already working that situation out for you. You just have to trust Him and continue in the work while you wait for Him to fulfill that which He promised. Now, if you haven't accepted Christ as your Lord and Savior then these promises do not apply to you but are available because Jes...
