Greetings and blessings to all of you. Do you desire to grow and mature in the Christian faith? Do you want to be able to minister to or evangelize to others? Do you have the desire to respond to others who have concerns and questions or may even attack you because of the myths about our Christian faith? To what and to whom do you turn to when you are facing deep sorrow and negative feelings coming from financial losses, a health issue, or an unexpected loss of a relationship? We usually turn to the horizontal reason of man (Humanism). But that will only help you and I to a certain degree. It leaves us lacking and empty and forever searching for soul peace. What is our authority in a crisis when we are in a world of pain? In Psalm 119:81-96 the word says, “If your word had not been my delight I would have perished in my affliction.” The Bible have ALL we need in order to communicate effectively to others and to ourselves. But …we must read it first! We must be like the Bereans mentioned in Acts:10-13 “they received the word with all eagerness examining the Scriptures DAILY to see if these things were so.” The reliability of Scripture is said by Christ in John 17:17 “Sanctify them in the Truth, Your word is Truth.” I did not say that ..you did not say that…. Jesus said that. “God is not man that he should lie or the son of man that he should change his mind.” (Num. 23: 19) The Bible provides us with a “crutch” something to lean on. Some want to lean on externals. Like marijuana, alcohol, intellectualism, (self-help books/apps) a myriad of gurus/ astrology and the occult or Self. But God wants us as believers to learn of the spiritual life helping us to grow and to increase our faith. We do this by following what Apostle Paul told Timothy in (2 Tim. 3:10-17) “you must continue in the things which you have learned …and that from childhood you have known the Holy Scriptures.” You and I can trust that the Word of God (the Bible) is a Love Letter to us. This letter covers all anguish and anxiety, and confusion. Since we are prone to seek our own desires and pursuits and incline our ears to evil’s deception and believe that man is the measure of all things and God is not needed; the Word is our Life line. The Word of God is a trustworthy document on which to base our salvation, our relationship with God and ALL other aspects of living our lives in the light of His presence.

With the Love of Christ
