Will You Live Today?

Will You Live Today? I woke up today, And I saw my Lord. He was standing there And He asked me this question. “Will you live today The way I would? Or will you laugh at me In front of the world?” In the car today, I turned on the radio. I started dancing to A pretty cool song. Then my Lord again, He asked me His question. Will you live today The way Jesus would? Or will you laugh at Him, In front of the world. And at school today, I found myself, Lookin’ at those girls, And thinkin’...

Negative emotions like anger, frustration and disappointment are visiting emotions. The consolation being, they rise in you when an event happens and then they die down once you are distracted into the other events. Hatred is a progressive negative emotion. It gains depth with the passage of time. The more you process your hurt the more you deepen your hatred, and as a result more acid is...

Are We Praying The Right Way?

Are We Praying The Right Way? In the Holy Bible, there are two types of occasions where Jesus does not respond positively to prayers. Occasions of Praying in the Wrong Way One is where a group of people ask Jesus to perform some miracles in their town. They asked Jesus to perform some miracles as they wanted to get excited by the miracles. None of them had a personal need or desire for a miracle. (Lk. 4:23, 23:8). The second is where people ask Jesus to do something by complaining about somebody. ‘Now as they went on their way, he entered...
