About Me

I"m a disabled minister recovering from some heart and diabetes problems, married to the love of my life and I try to spread happiness wherever I go. I believe that age is a state of mind no matter how your health is. I LOVE food but it don't like me as much as it used to because I'm diabetic. If I'd been Adam, satan would've used a pizza. I was once a hard parting guitar player in a band and all I wanted to do was get to the top. Then one day I looked in the mirror and hated what I saw and what I'd become. Then I met a man called Jesus who made me clean and gave me a new heart and purpose. If you have things that you've done that bother you, get alone and call on Jesus. he will answer your prayer and give you a peace and a high that nothing else can even come close to matching. Feel free to contact me if I can be of service. God richly bless you all

"Come out of her, my people, so that you will not participate in her sins and receive of her plagues; for her sins have piled up as high as heaven, and God has remembered her iniquities." Revelation 18:4-5 NASB

The Bible describes an angel crying out, "Fallen, fallen is Babylon the great!" (v. 2) Why? Because the world was saturated with lust and greed, dominated by possessions, without concern for God and His Truth, lost and condemned.
      Amid this environment, "another voice from heaven" warned God's people to "come out" and not "participate in her sins and receive of her plagues." Judgment was at hand.
      Today, we still need this warning. We must realize how easily we can be seduced by the things of the world, consumed by its possessions and pleasures, power and popularity.
      We need to remember that our citizenship is in Heaven (Philippians 3:20). We are to live like "aliens and strangers" (1 Peter 2:11). Like the early disciples, we are to leave everything behind and follow Jesus.
      In your life, realize that God wants you to be free! Free from pressures and stress. Free from worry and doubt. Free to trust Him and obey His Word. Free from the entanglements of the world. Free to be filled with the Holy Spirit so you can experience real peace and joy.
      Don't be like those in the world who are consumed and controlled, who live only for this life, not realizing that everything on earth is just temporary and real freedom comes from serving God.
      Right now, allow God to search your heart. Commit everything to Him. Everything! Don't let your life be controlled by the pleasures and rewards of the world. Seek first the Kingdom of God, and leave everything behind to follow Jesus.

Today's Inspirational Prayer



Father, give me a passion to serve You. I lay my life on the altar before You. Burn away whatever is not of You. May my life count for eternity. In Jesus' name. Amen.
