You are still a work in progress...you're not finished yet.  (So be patient with yourself and with God.)  "Beloved, now we are the sons of God, and it does not yet appear what we shall be:  but we know that, when he shall appear, we shall be like him; for we shall see him as he is." (1 John 3:2)  Don't give up!
"Being confident of this very thing, that he which has begun a good work in you will perform it until the day of Jesus Christ." (Philippians 1:6)

"Some people do not like to hear much of repentance; but I think it is so necessary that if I should die in the pulpit, I would desire to die preaching repentance, and if out of the pulpit I would desire to die practicing it." - Matthew Henry

"The main thing about Christianity is not the work we do, but the relationship we maintain and the atomsphere produced by that relationship.  That is all God asks us to look after, and it is the one thing that is being continually assailed.  Resting in the Lord does not depend upon external circumstances, but on the relationship of the life of God in me to God Himself."  Oswald Chambers

"IF TOMORROW NEVER COMES"
by Minister Sherry Ivy

Death is something that we all have to face one day we don’t know when, where, or how. It will come at a time we least expect, that’s why we have to live everyday as if it is our last day.  So, “if tomorrow never comes,” we will be ready to... Read more>>>

"The Christmas Doll" 
A play written by Jenny Sweeney

It was a day on the week before Christmas, a cold cloudy day, cold enough for a jacket and that makes it seem like Christmas here in south Mississippi.  Anna and her little girl, Casey, went to a grocery store to buy some food.  Read more>>
Prayer is not overcoming God's reluctance, but laying hold of His willingness. Martin Luther
"The neglected heart will soon be a heart overrun with worldly thoughts; the neglected life will soon become a moral chaos; the church that is not jealously protected by mighty intercession and sacrificial labors will before long become the abode of every evil bird and the hiding place for unsuspected corruption. The creeping wilderness will soon take over that church that trusts in its own strength and forgets to watch and pray." - A. W. Tozer
The problem with the hypocrite is his motivation. He does not want to be holy; he only wants to seem to be holy. He is more concerned with his reputation for righteousness than about actually becoming righteous. The approbation of men matters more to him than the approval of God." - Augustine
"GO AND SIN NO MORE"

Jesus is so easy to love, and not hard to follow!
Following Jesus doesn't
give you immunity from trials.
What it does give you is the opportunity to experience

Those who, in a day of peace, set themselves at Christ's feet to be taught by Him, may, with comfort, in a day of trouble, cast themselves at His feet to find favour with Him. - Matthew Henry

Control Your Emotions
Think about the times when you have let your emotions run away. What was the trigger that caused you to loose control? Was it your spouse? your job? the weather? If you think long enough, you will realize that we seldom get very angry about things that we can control. It is typically those conditions that fall outside of our circle of influence that spark out-of-control emotional responses. In other words, we waste our most passionate energy on things we can't do anything about (like other people's actions). What a waste!!
Next time you feel your emotions getting out of hand, make a conscious decision to focus only on things you CAN influence -- work on you, take time for you, build you -- and forget about everything else. Nothing has quite as much power to help you feel better as the simple decision to do something constructive -- and leave the rest of the world to worry about itself.
"Most people are about as happy as they choose to be." -- Abraham Lincoln 


"The greatest need of this generation is a wholehearted return to
the plan and purposes of God." - Dr Richard Owen Roberts
