Opinion vs Truth

Sometimes we mix our personal beliefs with the word of God. We misinterpret the meaning of certain scripture because we’re filtering the truth through our emotions. If only we could get to a place where our perceptions submit to the truth of the word of God rather than allowing our own feelings and personal agendas to twist its original meaning for our own selfish gain. That’s called heresy. When your opinion trumps the word of God, you miss out on what He’s originally been trying to communicate to you. Truth hurts, even cuts sometimes (Hebrews 4:12). But I’d rather truth than a faulty belief or opinion. Because ultimately, the Truth Himself will set you free.

For the word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any twoedged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart. | Hebrews 4:12

Jesus answered, “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me. | John 14:6

Gifted

You were gifted with a gift.  You were created with a passion Designed for a purpose, not for form or fashion. You were gifted with a gift Bigger than your mistakes It waits in eager anticipation Your purpose never waits.

You were gifted with a gift It's time to bring it to life It may seem irrelevant But someone needs your light. You were gifted with a gift Your life He did save Your sins washed away Your purpose doth made. I know you've been slept on It was all for a reason But hear me when I say Tomorrow is your season. So for today fear not For growth takes time For now, use what you got In His Will, you'll be just fine.

Cycles

You've heard it said that when you make a mistake or bad decision, you should've learned a lesson afterwards. Yet there is a question that needs to be asked in relevance to the situation. How will the lesson learned be practically applied? There is a difference between a lesson learned and a lesson applied. Often times we continue to make the same mistakes in life because we choose not to apply what we've learned.  Take a math lesson for example. You go to the class, listen to the professor, and learn all of the formulas. Math is full of formulas that if executed correctly, present the same answer. Then the test comes, and you have to apply the formula you've learned the day before. The only problem is that you have forgotten the formula. Or let's just say you remember the formula, but when the math problem presented itself, you did not feel like applying it. You ultimately fail the test by a few points. Had you'd applied the formula when the problem prese...
