Believers are broken people who see life through broken lenses. Broken lenses reflect light in different directions depending on the angle of the lens. This is why we need other believers in our lives who, although also see life through broken lenses, will see it a little differently than us.
A friend and I were discussing life situations through the lens of Scripture; and yet, we were bringing up truths from God’s word that challenged the other person’s thinking. Each of us hadn’t seen Scripture quite like what the other person was sharing.
The Word of God is true, period. Yet, until the Spirit completely repairs our brokenness, we will not always be able to see the truths contained in God’s word that will set us free from whatever challenge we face from our angle.
We need the help the other believers in the process of being repaired. Yes, we are saved as individuals, but we walk this journey with Jesus with others. Who helps you see what you need to see to see Jesus more clearly?

Believers are broken people who see life through broken lenses; and as such, we must walk this journey with Jesus together in humility. As a broken person who reads Scripture through broken lenses, how do we know we have it right?
Yes, we have the Spirit of God to guide us into all truth. And yet, in our state of being repaired, how do we know we’re hearing Him correctly? Our ears are just as broken as our eyes, which means our hearing can be off as well.
The truth is the truth and never changes, but our understanding of it can. Therefore, there have been times I’ve changed my understanding of Scripture based on discussions with fellow believers, who love and are just as committed to Jesus and His Word as I am, as only having and following the truth will set me free.
Thus, lets continue to walk this journey together in complete humility, even with those with whom we may at the moment Scripturally disagree; but, given time, may end up agreeing. And even if we don’t, the world will see Jesus’ love through us as we walk as one (John 17:21).

No, this title is not a mistake. I was reading Jeremiah when my prayer life was changed forever. The prophet was calling the nation of Israel, God’s bride and wife, back to loving her Husband. Through her worship of various idols, including burning her children to death, she was committing adultery. The Father put up with this for such a long time until He had to finally brokenheartedly say, “It’s Me or the door.” Israel choose the door – twice!
The church is called a bride. In New Testament times, a bride was already married; and, it was considered adultery if either one cheated on the other (Matthew 1).
Latest statistics show that only 9% of those who claim to be secure children of God actually listen to and follow Jesus. Stated another way, 91% of Jesus’ Bride are listening to and following either themselves or the world, both of which are idolatry, and thus, adultery. Are you the part of the 9 or 91%?
Ladies and gentlemen, living as a married single is over. It’s time to choose to be a better bride by being faithful to the One we say we love. We do that each day through each choice to filter life using the FREEdom process to better listen to and follow only Jesus, our loving Husband.

You’ll enjoy what a home schooling dad recently wrote, “I started doing some math every day at the beginning of this year. I wanted to be working alongside the boys, and I thought it would help me understand their reality better if I was doing the same sort of work that they are. Plus, I’ll be their primary mathematics instructor as they progress, and it will be helpful if I go through a refresher on algebra and the like myself.”
What a picture of Jesus! The author of Hebrews wrote, “Therefore He (Jesus) had to be made like His brothers in every respect…for because He himself has suffered when tempted, He is able to help those who are being tempted.”
This dad could help his sons because he actually worked and solved each math problem. Jesus can help us because he faced and conquered every challenge we’ll ever face. Jesus walked in your shoes. It now simply comes down to, “Who are we listening to – a loser or a winner?”

Surrender is series of choices, not a one off event. We often hear that we’re going to a worship service. This may or not be true. We worship our God every time we choose to listen to and follow Jesus. With each choice we make, we reflect or glorify Jesus in our lives, which includes our attitudes, words and actions.
We can worship Jesus at a church service if we choose to give Him thanks and praise, which are asked of those who love Him. This can also be done at work, the beach, the ballpark or anywhere for that matter. Each choice to express our love for Jesus is worship, no matter where it takes place.
Surrender is not a one-time decision. It’s a daily choice to let go of self to follow Jesus, whom we say we love. Our culture and world would look much different, if only more Jesus believers would get this into their very thick skulls.
