Today

It is said that there is no tomorrow, only today. And it's true, both literally and in a figurative, inspirational sense. But it's also true that the efforts that we make for the sake of tomorrow, a so-called phantom day, is what makes our today worthwhile and our hope for a new today stay alive.

So to truly live for today is to also live for tomorrow.

Accountability for the Prophetic

Image
Another word. Another conference. Another season. Another claimed endeavor or work or promise from the hand of the Lord. I remember the days...there was a time in the early 90's when it became very popular to want to be a prophet and/or have prophetic words given and received. It started with a few out there popularly, and spread amongst certain denominations and circles, to where so many across the Western Church were claiming to be such. Since then, so much has transpired in this realm, whether genuine, authentic, off the mark, or outright hijacked. But one thing that has seemed to be lacking is a preparation of biblically-balanced guidance and instruction on the prophetic, and manifestations of the Spirit in general, including accountability, which I really want to talk about. Firstly, we may have a variety of definitions of the phrase 'gifts of the Spirit'. So I'll stick to how the Bible defines these things, according to 1 Corinthians 12-14, Romans 12, and Ephesian...

Eagles Point

The purpose of this space is to simply to share experiences, encouragement, ideas, questions, challenges, struggles, and victories, in hopes that someone might be strengthened and uplifted, or even used by God to respond and strengthen and encourage me. The content comes from a genuine heart that seeks to live this out on a daily basis, whether successful or not. Authenticity is golden, and I strive to be transparent in my shortcomings. I believe this empowers us in a unique way by the Holy Spirit to call others to the graces we share. A good shepherd must be personally striving to walk out that which they call others to. I am encouraged by others who have a heart for genuine living, and especially those who have been through untold circumstances and have a story to tell as they journey through their healing. I advocate with a genuine, broken heart for the disadvantaged, the mistreated, the exploited. I seek to be as true to their stories, exp...

Tougher Love

Many of us have heard of 'tough love', 'speaking the truth in love', and the like. Perhaps often misunderstood or not mirroring its biblical roots. It was never meant to be a license to put jagged edges on the truth as we speak it. The context of love where truth is expressed infers the laborious building of charity and grace in healthy relationship, one with mercy and boundaries in tandem balance, resulting in what would even be a stable home wherein the relationship abides. And then, from this very place, loving truth may be clearly spoken with gentle tone, such that the strength of expression and the arm of action doing the work is the truth itself, not the intensity of the person expressing it. And all that said...there is yet a tougher love. What is the greatest commandment? You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, all your mind, and all your strength. And the second is like it, you shall love your neighbor as yourself. Greater love has no man than thi...
