Fix Your Focus

By Kay on February 20, 2015 / 2,077 views

When I first became a Christian I bought myself a Bible. Inside of the front cover I wrote "Let us keep our eyes fixed on Jesus, on whom our faith depends from beginning to end." Hebrews 12:2 Of all the Bible texts I could have chosen, I chose this one. I wondered why. Over the years I've had several experiences that have shown me why I chose this text. I'd like to share my first experience. One day while I...

Path To Solace

By Bala on February 20, 2015 / 4,886 views

I have been going through a tough time recently, and have been missing work out of depression. This morning, i decided to go to a nearby temple to find some solace from all my troubles. The temple was almost empty with very few patrons so i was able to spend some time in peace and quiet. I was still brooding even when i walked out of the temple, when i noticed a ragged old lady who was crouched beside the temple...

Everything Happens For A Reason

By Brigiet on February 19, 2015 / 2,350 views

I was born in 1975, the eldest of 5. Four girls and one boy. After a while my mom took me to live with my grandmother who lived on a farm. It was more like dumping me there because my dad was totally against it, but since they weren't married, my mom did as she pleased. I lived with my grandma for four years and also started with my schooling there. I remember one cold winter morning on my way to school without...

A father's love to his children was irreplaceable. A father's love to his children, cannot be replaced no matter what happen. My cousin Ann and I, we're bestfriends since we were born.

Quality Time

By Carli on February 17, 2015 / 5,115 views

My husband has a demanding job. He leaves the house early in the morning, before the kids are awake and will come back home a little before supper time. One of my big worries when we decided to have kids was that I'd be a "married single parent." We discussed it and he promised to be there as much as possible and that I wouldn't feel alone. He followed through his promise, he spends 90% of his free time with us....

Mad To Live Since You Died

By Donna Hart on February 17, 2015 / 2,486 views

My son Jimmy died 3/30/2014 at the age of 29 while backpacking in Cambodia. He loved James Dean and Jack Kerouac especially the book 'On the Road' and inspired by that book he was Mad to Live. He decided to live out his bucket list before he was to old to enjoy it. So at the age of 28 he quit his job at Apple, sold his stock, his SUV and everything he owned and set off alone to see the world. In just one year he had...

A Little Hurt

By Joseph J. Mazzella on February 16, 2015 / 2,161 views

I was laying on my bed relaxing after a long day. Music was playing in the background and I was taking the time to read a good book. Just as I turned the page an old song started playing that always reminded me of my Mom. I put the book down and listened. Even though it had been 23 years since cancer had taken her from us, sometimes it still felt like it was only yesterday. I closed my eyes and allowed the flood of...

By Make A Difference Today on February 16, 2015 / 3,702 views

It's tax filing season again and for the few of us who are lucky to expect an income tax refund, here's something to consider. With the money you get back, why not contribute part of it - even a small part of it, to make someone's life a little easier? Or if you're feeling generous, why not do something bigger? There are so many causes that need YOUR help. You may think that as an individual, you can't make an...

Do You Want To Get Well?

By Kay on February 15, 2015 / 4,277 views

"Do you want to get well?" This was the question I kept hearing every morning when I spent my quiet time with the Lord. I wondered why the Lord kept asking me the same question. Of course, I wanted to "get well," or did I? These last few months since my son Todd's death had been unbelievable. The pain of losing Todd was unbearable. Because of the tremendous pressure I had on my chest, there were times when I felt...

Hard Heart - A Sorry Pair

By George Burgin on February 14, 2015 / 4,612 views

Hard Heart.  Two words I never want to read or hear as next door neighbors in the description of my life.  It’s not that Hard or Heart are bad words, it’s just that when they sit next to each other, they’re a sorry pair.  They poke at each other, antagonize, stir-up, rile; they become something together that individually would never be. Any wise person knows the damage those two can cause when they’re...

Experiance The Beauty Of Life And Of You

By Patti Hatzistavrakis on February 13, 2015 / 5,911 views

Life is busy – we hustle from one place to another, engrossed in our electronic devices, books or simply looking away to avoid making eye contact with the human race, including ourselves. Never stopping to take in the tranquility of the ocean, the art spray painted on a building or the beauty of the sunset. Most of us aren’t awake for the sunrise and are not truly present at important (or even ordinary) daily...

Get Comfortable With Being Uncomfortable

By Jason Witt on February 13, 2015 / 6,633 views

Reading through the social media posts about Martin Luther King yesterday, getting inspired to write today, I had a particularly strong connection with one of his most famous quotes. I myself have endured heartbreak recently and it forced me headstrong into an uncommon and inconvenient reality for me. I was betrayed, heartbroken, alone and questioning everything I thought I stood for. You know what, it was the...

Go Ahead, Step Into Your Calling!

By From Where I Stand.net on February 13, 2015 / 2,407 views

From Where I Stand, I am sharing the inspirational story of Chris, son of missionary parent. When exposed to the prophetic anointing, he stepped into his calling. Through prophetic teaching, Chris cooperated and moved with the Holy Spirit delivering a prophetic word in the corporate gathering for the first time. In essence, through the corporate message, every individual receives a prophetic word and so does the...

A Beautiful Day

By Babrak EHSAS on February 12, 2015 / 4,028 views

February 12, 2015 A glorious mountain is trying to show me its face through the dusty fog, the sun is also trying to help mountain in its efforts to come out from the fog. I kept open my office window to breathe dusty air of Kabul, capital of Afghanistan and witnessed the struggle of the sun trying to shattered the fog and appear its golden face and make a smile to the city, a pleasing struggle. Every day in...

The Distillation Of Life

By George Burgin on February 12, 2015 / 4,386 views

There was a television broadcasting CNN in the corner. Interestingly, none of the thirty or so people gathered in clusters across the room even noticed Anderson Cooper talking about Manti Te’o and the alleged hoax involving something about a fake girlfriend who recently died. None of that stuff mattered. In fact, in that room and at that moment only one thing mattered. I learned a great life lesson while...
