Buffet Bodies and New Year’s Resolutions

If you are a believer on the Lord Jesus Christ, there are some spiritual disciplines that must be in place. And there are means by which you can spiritually “buffet your body” in order to grow deeper in your walk with God.

So be good for goodness’ sake!

Some days it seems easier than others to be good, doesn’t it? This begins from the moment of our first breath. We don’t always feel like being or doing good!

The ‘Next’ Mentality

Acts 17:32-34:  32 And when they heard of the resurrection of the dead, some mocked, while others said, “We will hear you again on this matter.” 33 So Paul departed from among them. 34 However, some men joined him and believed, among them Dionysius the Areopagite, a woman named Damaris, and others with them.

Joshua 1: 1-9, 13:  “1 After the death of Moses the servant of the Lord, it came to pass that the Lord spoke to Joshua the son of Nun, Moses’ assistant, saying: 2 “Moses My servant is dead. Now therefore, arise, go over this Jordan, you and all this people, to the land which I…
