Do You Have An Answer?
The day is comeing when,Jesus will asks you about your life's work here on earth.If you haven't yet fully grasped what God want you to do.Today is a good day to ask him.You have to hand it to the disciples.While they rarely understood anything Jesus did or said,they were always ready to claim they did.Who,after all,wants to appear ignorant when the teacher asks a question?In the gospel the disciples ask Jesus to explain the parable of the sower.His response comes in the form of more parables-comparing the kingdom of heaven to treasure hidden in a field,a pearl of great price,and a great net cast into the sea.They all sound nice but they are hardly helpful explanations at the time.Never mind.The apostles were watching and listening with pre-resurrection eyes and ears.Living , as we do on this side of the resurrection,you do know that,God loves you anyway.

What's Your Vision For The New Year? (Part 2 )
When God give you a vision you're likely to be placed in a field of opportunities concealed under acres of
obstacles.Then God will stand back and watch how you engage in the ministry of obstacle management! But
remember to walk in faith and refuse to quit,God guarantees your obstacles won't prevent your vision from
being fulfilled.For you will have some bad and good days as God give the strength to over life's efforts to
break you. ( 2 Corinthians C-4: v-8 Thu 9 ).

What's Your Vision For The New Year?
Visions come with opportunities-and obstacles! Fulfilling your life's vision depends on, 1.) Have a vision-which calls for waiting on God until He reveals His plan for you. 2.)Dedicating time and energy to it -which
calls for patience and discipline. 3.)Knowing how to overcome obstacles-which calls for good management.
The Bible says: "Where there is no vision,the people perish" ( Pr.C-29;v18).If you don't have a dream,how can it come true? A vision gives you direction,creativity and resilience.Without one you become passive,
aimless and vulnerable to quitting. God can give you a vision instantly but its fulfillment will require learning,
practicing,and managing life's daily challenges.For the next few weeks we'll share some vision-fulfilling
principles.

Do You Have Anything In Common With The Wise Men?
It has been over two thousand years ( 2,000 ) since that journey wrought by a beckoning star,and the first
coming of the Christ child lead to peace on earth,and good will toward men.It was in the framework of this
humble setting that God interrupts human history.It is here in this perfect"palace of humility"that God would
show favor to all mankind.At this time men of the East gazed into the heavens and were drawn to a star.
They were compelled by something beyond themselves to follow its light.Their account in Matthew C-2 is
a story of faith set in motion to encounter the revelation of that star.Their unwavering purpose as recorded for future generations is summed up in their own words: "For we have seen His star in the East and have come to worship Him"( Matthew C-2:v2 ).As we know from the familiar passages related to the coming of Christ,these strangers from the East were not foreign to the protocol worthy of a ruler and thus offered gifts of gold,frankincense and myrrh to the Christ child.Their anticipation was matched with the realization of being summoned to appear before a king. (Revelation C-22:v17.). Here in is wisdom,we would do well
to do as the wise men did.Seek first the kingdom of God.For he who comes to God must believe that He is,and that He is a rewarder of those who diligently seek Him, (Hebrews C-11:v6). How wise will we be?
The wise men of old set a course for us to consider. It's interesting that Jesus,the Bright and Morning Star
of Revelation,always came to His followers with one message:"Follow Me"( Matthew C-4:v19;
John C-21:v19). Perhaps it is the encouragement of Jesus' own words of "follow Me"that points us to the
admonition of Isaiah C-30:v21:"This is the way,walk in it." Like our counterparts from yesteryear's,it is
our hope that today's wise men will be open,available and willing as they seek and wait upon His star.

Who Wants Tobe A Millionaire?
Well, as bad as man would have us think it is.You would think the answer to who wants to be a millionaire is very simple: But this is an increasingly difficult question to answer.For some the questions are basic,but others are more intense.When the lights flash,the audience tenses,and the kettledrum rolls-while contestants agonize over who invented the cup or the computer.The program guests carefully use their "three lifelines"
as the host Regis Philblin asks,"Is that your final answer? So here's a question,Is it possible that the Bible answers the important question that haunt us in the darkness as we lie in bed trying to sleep? We have all
found it entertaining to watch someone else sweat in an effort to get rich quick. We all know that the questions the contestants have to ponder--no matter how intriguing--are not in themselves all that important.
The really important questions are those that keep us awake at night as we lie in bed trying to sleep--questions that eat at our hearts because we sense our lives and relationships,our work and our health,our hopes and our happiness all hang in the balance.But what if the most published book in the world has answers to our most troubling questions? what if the Bible offers us all three of our lifelines in a show called
Who Wants To Have Joy unspeakable Joy,And Peace That Passes All Understanding? Now here's three
questions to think on, 1.)Is there hope for your family? 2.) Can I find purpose for my life? 3.)Can I know what will happen after I die? There are answers and they are in your Bible. John C-3:v16 thr 18.Is a good
start.

Do Not Worry,O Ye Of Little Faith
Today there are so many people in a state of worry,about so many things. And because we place
our faith in our self more than in God. We're in a living hell of our on making. We as the human
race has done just what Jesus, told us not to do. As it where , when He was talking to His disciples in; ( Luke C-12:v 22 Thur v:34 ). We still don't get today, that our faith should only be in God.
Much can be said about how we got in this state. I'd like to share with you all.That we don't have to stay where we are. God has always been near to us to help. If we would only ask. There
are only two kinds of people in this world,they are the faithful and the faithless.Who are you?
