Today, my wife Ursula told me how someone made a statement to her that was basically a curse. Now hear me out... This person was not a witch or anything like that. But this person made a seemingly harmless remark about the upcoming stages of pregnancy, and the things she should not be looking forward to. This person didn't even mean any harm. But this made me think...

How many times have I done this before?

I don't think we realize just how powerful our words are. In fact, I know we don't realize the power our words posses!

We've all heard Proverbs 18:31 talk about how the tongue can either bring life or death... But do we grasp that truth?
Think about it.

Also, remember James 3:10:
"And so blessing and cursing come pouring out of the same mouth. Surely, my brothers and sisters, this is not right!"

We all need to take a minute and realize how powerful our words are!

By the way, I was quick to break the curse spoken over Ursula, and replaced it with a blessing!

Faith is already driving!

Lately there's been a lot of buzz about Rob Bell's new book "Love Wins" in which he questions the existence of Hell. It's very trubling to me that this is even a question or discussion. The bible is EXTREMELY clear on this.

For the sake of discussion, here are the videos. You decide which message is clear and precise...

The first time I heard John Mark McMillan's song, "How He Loves", I instantly LOVED it! This song so beautifully expresses the Father's love for us. In fact, I believe that this is one of the best worship songs written this decade! I especially love the line that says, "If grace is an ocean, we're all sinking." 

However, many people have taken up arms because they have an issue with some of the lyrics. 

John wrote, "So Heaven meets earth like a sloppy wet kiss," and it turned the worship world upside down! I could take the time to defend the lyrics - because I stand behind them - but I won't... I'll let John Mark do it himself. Here's a link to his blog post discussing this topic.

And with that being said... enjoy the song and worship in His presence!
