Dear Readers: I write these thoughts each morning with the hopes that someone might be encouraged to grow in some facet of their faith, to become more certain of their beliefs, and more determined to truly live a life of Grace. Then, I remind myself, that I too, need to progress from the sincere milk of the Word, to living by Faith. I need to grow from the milk stage of my Christian living, to the meat of Christian living. 

I am neither a great theologian nor am I a man filled with special wisdom but I am a man who is truly and sincerely learning to be both, as I seek first The Kingdom of God and His righteousness. So while writing something I want to cause you to think, while some may consider them controversial but that is not the purpose. My plan is not to create adversities but to try to unravel them. In doing so, I try to cause both, you and me to think for ourselves in a godly way. I want  to do that by challenging both you and me to think differently than we tend to think.  

God said “Come let us reason together, saith the Lord, ”Isaiah 1:18. So while somethings I say may appear to be dogmatic, (and some are, because truth never changes because of your or my opinions) but all are not meant to be so. Godly thinking should challenge us to seek first the Kingdom of God in our daily living.  That, in turn, will or should cause us to hunger for new godly, thoughts and thus more of God, Himself. 

So I request that, as God brings me to your mind, that you pray that I might see, understand and express His Presence better today than I could have yesterday.
