Welcome to my daily/weekly blog. Here I will post a devotion or two, quotes, my thoughts, and humorous things that I have seen around or was sent to me. Don't forget to check out the rest of Stories of Salvation and God Bless all of you.
You will also notice that content from other writers are posted on this blog. This content is taken from free article sites, mainly Faithwriters.com and Gotquestions.org, and it helps keep the content fresh on this site due to my time restraints with my overnight job, church, wife and seven children and a grandaughter that we are raising.. I hope you enjoy the christian content this blog provides. Don't forget to comment so the authors of the articles can see that you enjoy them. If anyone would like to write for the blog just drop me a line.
Also, if you have come here to read one of over four hundred entries, they have unfortunately been lost due to changing hosting sites. So here is to starting fresh.

Worship
By beatrice ofwona
Some followers of Christ abandoned him when he asked them to eat his flesh and blood. In the book of John 6:53-69 we see some of them choosing to leave rather than follow Jesus when he told them that they would have to do this in order to live forever. In verse 60, many of them, on hearing this said, "This is hard teaching, who can accept it? Many turned their backs on him and did not follow him. The twelve who were finally left were the ones who understood that Jesus Christ had the words of eternal life and that this was a covenant talk. They chose to be with him and revere him as the promised Savior.
Worship is associated with dance, speaking in tongues, tears and many other manifestations which characterize a powerful service, yet some people come to church ...

Give and it shall be Given
By Jerry Ousley
You hear a lot about giving now-a-days. I realize that it takes a lot of money to carry the Gospel around the world. There are many hungry mouths that need to be fed. There are widows and orphans that need to be clothed, and there are countless numbers that need shelter. Yes, there is no doubt that there is a great need and none of it can be done without a good supply.
There are also many wonderful ministries that are endeavoring to do their part to meet these needs. They give of themselves sacrificially to fulfill the Great Commission mandated by our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.
However, there are also a great many who abuse the good nature of people. They know the right words to say to pluck the heartstrings. They are aware that those ...

Victory is Never Easy
By Cathey Pavlikianidis
Ask any soldier if winning the war was easy and the only reply you will get is a head hung low and tears for the warriors that fell in battle. There are sure to be some casualties in any war and the war waged in this earth against the enemies of Christ is no different. We hear stories of missionaries being felled by the enemy in various parts of the world every day. But believe me they did not lose the war! They were more than conquerors through Christ who loved them. Romans 8:37 Their testimonies will live throughout the Church until the wonderful day of Christ's return.
The Christian life is not easy, but it can be victorious. Right now in the heat of this battle, God, your Father, Provider, Protector, Savior, and your True Love is saying to you, ...

KNOWING CHRIST DOES NOT COME FROM READING A BOOK
By Gary Bixler
Brothers, how can we know the Lord Jesus as Lord and Friend? Only by hearing the simplest of His Words and obeying them.
We cannot know Christ in any other way. Not by studying the Word, not by reading the latest and greatest book written by someone who claims that once you read his book you'll suddenly be putting Christ first in your life.
No head knowledge works. Only heart knowledge, and that is gained by spending much time with our Lord, and by going through the fires with Him.
Daily crosses are not popular, and our churches simply don't teach us to lay down our lives for Jesus and one another any more. But though the narrow road is unpopular, it is still the only Way.
