Billy's Journey

2012-01-21T22:46:00.001-04:00

Witnessing isn't always telling someone about Jesus. Living a Christ-like life and being a good example is also a witness, albeit a silent one. Sometimes, that's all it takes...

2012-01-11T23:13:00.001-04:00

I am nothing without you Lord!

2011-12-19T22:04:00.000-04:00

Let's not forget what Christmas is all about: The birth of our Lord And Savior Jesus Christ!

2011-12-11T23:58:00.002-04:00

Mary was a courageous woman, probably the most courageous one of all time. She took her destiny as mother of The Lord and did not look back. Being a pregnant single lady back then was risky business, as she could have been stoned. But God helped he through that, and she never lost faith!

2011-12-11T23:56:00.001-04:00

Psalm 19:14 Let my words and my thoughts be pleasing to you, LORD, because you are my mighty rock and my protector

2011-12-11T23:49:00.001-04:00

What would you have done had you been present at the Birth of Jesus, Knowing he was the Son of God, King Of Kings And Lord Of Lords?

2011-11-22T23:19:00.001-04:00

What Are You Thankful For? Me, I'm thankful for everything that God has done for me. For saving me, for my family, my home, my church, my church family, and the best best friend a guy could have!

2011-11-01T22:15:00.001-04:00

Revelation is both an interesting and scary book of the Bible. Interesting because it is interesting reading about what's going to happen, with the rapture, the second coming, and all the judgements that God will pour out on the Earth. But it's scary because every Christian knows someone who is unsaved, and we know what's going to happen to them.

2011-08-30T20:49:00.001-04:00

Lord, I pray that you would watch over Lori as she goes through her surgery.

2011-08-18T22:41:00.000-04:00

Do you think that we are in the Endtimes? Sure looks like it, from some of the things going on in the world! If it is, I'm ready!

2011-07-06T22:35:00.002-04:00

I am loving my stint as a Sunday School teacher. God has given me this opportunity to get over my shyness. I am learning more about God by studying the lesson. And they guys in my class are great! We all learn a bit from each other. Hopefully this is the beginning of something big!

2011-06-20T23:38:00.000-04:00

This Article is about verses and events that people think are in the bible but aren’t. Even some Christians didn’t know that they weren’t in there. Just goes to show you that Bible study is important.

2011-05-26T21:23:00.002-04:00

Some Prayer Requests:

For those affected by the tornadoes

Bob as he goes through his treatments

For Nicie that her hand gets better

That our church's yardsale goes well, making money for our mission trip

That the unsaved will come to know Christ

2011-04-29T21:51:00.001-04:00

Lord, I pray you would watch over Pastor Dan and his family and comfort them as they mourn the loss of his Dad.

2011-04-14T21:23:00.001-04:00

One thing I've learned is that sometimes God puts someone in your life for a reason different than what you think.

2011-03-08T00:46:00.002-04:00

One of my biggest regrets is that I didn't come to know Christ till I was 25 years old. As you may or may not know, when I was a kid, I went through a lot of bad times when I was in school, with people picking on me because of my weight. I could have really used His help in getting me though all of that. But I do know Him know, better late then never!

2011-03-08T00:38:00.001-04:00

Lord, once again I ask you for patience. I know you have someone for me, but sometimes, the lonliness gets the best of me!

2011-02-11T23:49:00.002-04:00

Some Prayer Requests:

That the people of Egypt can repair their country

That Rich's Surgery goes well

That Bob's treatment goes well

That Dan and his family can find a bigger house

That our Church keeps growing

2011-02-11T23:48:00.001-04:00

Hypocrisy is not good. Let your Yes Be Yes and Your No be No!

2011-01-19T22:44:00.002-04:00

It makes me sad to hear someone say they're a Christian, confessing Christ, yet act totally different when it comes to living their lives. I hope to walk the walk and talk the talk!!

2011-01-19T22:42:00.001-04:00

As we start the new year, I want to be closer to God. I want to do everything I can to serve him as best as I can!

2010-12-21T23:22:00.000-04:00

Lord, thank you for giving me the ability to teach Sunday School last week. I really enjoyed doing it, and I pray you will g ive me the strength and knowledge to teach again if I'm needed!

2010-12-15T23:04:00.000-04:00

I wish I could travel back in time to the time of the birth of Jesus. Wouldn't it have been wonderful to have been a witness to it?

2010-12-01T19:06:00.001-04:00

The only person who is affected by unforgiveness is the one who doesn't forgive!

2010-11-24T21:33:00.000-04:00

As we near Thanksgiving, let's not forget the things God has done for us!

2010-11-12T00:24:00.001-04:00

I was reading this article about 2 ministers that have abandoned Christianity and became Athiests, but still perform their church duties. My question is: if you don't believe in God anymore, why be the spiritual advisor and minister to people who do believe? It's a good thing that these guys didn't want their identities to be shown, or else they would be in big trouble! The idea of an Athiest being a minister is like a Republican being given a leadership role in the Democratic party.

2010-11-12T00:14:00.001-04:00

Lord, I thank you that Nicie and Scott have found jobs, and I now pray that they can find their own home!

2010-10-04T22:51:00.002-04:00

We can witness to a person as hard as we can, but the choice to follow Christ is theirs and theirs alone. We can be a good example and show them the way, but it's up to them! I pray that I can do the best I can!

2010-09-10T21:36:00.000-04:00

Lord, I pray you would help Nicie and Scott as they go through the problems they are going through this week. They are my 2 closest friends, and I am truly sad that their car died, and Scott lost his job.

2010-06-27T23:21:00.001-04:00

Lord, I feel you pulling at my heart somehow. Please Tell me what you are calling me to do!

2010-06-03T20:45:00.001-04:00

I have read that the number of Americans who identify themselves as Christians has decreased over the past few years. That is tragic! Why would anyone reject the promises of God?

2010-05-17T23:35:00.001-04:00

Lord, I don't know what the future holds for me, but I know you do, so I'm ready for whatever you have in store for me!

2010-04-02T22:50:00.001-04:00

As we prepare to celebrate Easter, let's not forget what it's all about: The death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus! Without that, we have no hope of salvation! Thank you Jesus for dying for me!

2010-04-02T22:48:00.001-04:00

Isn't it wonderful how God provides something at the exact time you need it? Lord, I thank you for providing Nicie for the money she needed! I know it was your doing!

2010-03-31T23:26:00.001-04:00

Lord, I am so thankful that the friendship between Nicie and Myself was restored after the disagreement we had last week. She has been the best friend I've ever had, and I don't know what I'd do if I lost her.

2010-03-14T23:54:00.002-04:00

Isn't it exciting that you can read a verse in the bible one day, it will mean one thing to you, and the next time you read it, it means something else? God's Word is living, always there to help you, depending on your needs and circumstances.

2010-03-03T00:30:00.001-04:00

How can a person look at all of Nature and not believe in God?

2010-02-04T18:42:00.002-04:00

I am so amazed at how Job handled his situation. He lost his Kids and his possessions, and his friends gave him a hard time, but he never lost his faith in God. I try to be lile that, but it's not easy!

2010-01-19T23:31:00.002-04:00

Here are some prayer requests:

For the people of Haiti as they recover from the earthquake

For my friend Nicie's Sister Danette, as she faces raising her newborn Son on her own.

For my friend Cathy as she faces surgery

For all my family members who are having health problems

2010-01-02T00:10:00.002-04:00

My resolutions this year, as far as my relationship with God are:

Pray harder, with more confidence that His will be done

Read my Bible more

Try to believe in myself more

Be good to people

Continue to be a good friend, make new ones.

Completely trust Him with my life

2009-12-16T23:41:00.001-04:00

As we get close to Christmas, A Question for you, my readers:

What would you have done of you were one of the shepherds that the angel announced the birth of Jesus to? Would you have freaked out, or would you have been excited, and listened? I'd like to think that I'd be a bit shocked, but still have listened.

2009-12-02T20:38:00.001-04:00

Patience is a hard thing to maintain. Just remember that things only happen when God says it's time for them to happen! I've learned that the hard way!

2009-11-16T00:21:00.001-04:00

If Jesus can forgive us of our sins, why can't we forgive others for much lesser transgressions?

2009-10-30T00:12:00.002-04:00

Some things I've learned the past few days:

There are no totally good or totally evil people

God put everyone here for a reason, no one's life is better or lessen then anyone else's

Life's precious

People, tell all your family and friends how much you love them, the next time you talk to them may be the last time.

2009-10-18T21:54:00.002-04:00

-God Wants all of you, 100%, nothing less is acceptable!

2009-09-09T00:04:00.001-04:00

Lord, please forgive me for straying away from you and getting my mind stuck on worldly things like finding someone. Please help me keep you number one in my life!

2009-08-25T23:34:00.002-04:00

Dear Lord, please watch over Nicie and her Family as they mourn the loss of her sister's Husband. We don't really need to know why he took his life, but what matters is that there's a Mom and Dad that have lost their Son, A wife has lost her husband, and there is an unborn child that will never know her father.

Surrendering

2009-07-07T23:38:00.001-04:00

Lord, please show me what your will for my life is. I know I've asked this before, but this time, I totally give myself to you.

The Rapture

2009-06-14T20:37:00.001-04:00

Today In Church the sermon was on the Rapture. I hope it happens during my lifetime! Won't it be wonderful when Jesus calls us home and we're taken up into Heaven? I can't wait, cause I know I'm going there!

Something To Remember

2009-06-12T13:46:00.001-04:00

God Has A Reason For Everything That Happens In Your Life.

2009-06-04T21:02:00.001-04:00

These days, I do beleive that God would be shaking his head in disbelief at how Christianity has been divided into so many different denominations. How could people get totally different ideas of what His word means?

2009-06-01T22:12:00.002-04:00

God, I thank you for our generous friends from Church Who helped out Dad with his truck. It's sooo nice that you've put such great people in our lives. There are not that many people who would spend their own money on someone that they hadn't known for that long.

2009-04-12T22:40:00.000-04:00

Today as we celebrate Easter, Let 's not forget what it's about! Jesus is risen after dying for you and me!

2009-04-06T23:18:00.000-04:00

Ten Ways Jesus Changed the World

1. He split our calendar in two: B.C. and A.D.

2. He showed us God is love.

3. He refused a crown to bear a cross.

4. He occupies no grave.

5. His sermon on the Mount set forth the highest standard for how we should
live.

6. He modeled forgiveness in a world of stone throwers.

7. He transformed fishermen and tax collectors into world changers.

8. He healed the sick and raised the dead…enough said.

9. He challenged religion devoid of compassion.

10. He willingly accepted a cruel death so that we might have life.

The scriptures tell us that God “showed his love among us — He sent his one and
only Son into the world that we might live through Him.”

2009-03-29T22:49:00.001-04:00

Our Revival Services this week had a profound effect on me. Especially the first night, which dealt with bitterness. I'm getting over all the stuff I've been through, slowly but surely, but it's not easy...

2009-03-02T15:12:00.002-04:00

Lord, I thank you for the new friends I've met the past couple of weeks. For Mikey, for Rev. Mike, and Keeper, they have been so good to me, I thank you Lord, for putting them in my life!

2009-02-15T23:32:00.002-04:00

Some Prayer Requests For Today:

1: Comfort For the families of those killed in the NY plane Crash

2: For the US to pull out of our financial problems

3: For My Church To Continue to grow

4: For my friends that God will take care of their needs

5: For My Family especially my 2 sister, who are unsaved

6: For me, That I can lose weight, and that I can find someone.

2009-02-04T01:15:00.001-04:00

Dear Lord, hear my prayer:

Please forgive me for my occasional lapses in faith. I know that you are here for me, but sometimes I am just impatient in waiting for my prayers to be heard.

2008-12-24T23:34:00.001-04:00

Can you imagine what it was like the night Jesus was born? How the shepherds felt when the angel told them about The birth of the Savior? How the wise men felt when the finally reached the baby Jesus? How Mary felt knowing she had given birth to the Son Of God? The responsibility that Joseph must have felt knowing that it was his duty to protect Jesus till he grew up? I wish I could have been one of the people in Bethlehem that night!

2008-12-21T00:08:00.001-04:00

As we Celebrate Christmas, please don't forget it's true meaning! The birth Of Jesus, God's Son and the Savior of the World! To me, his gift of forgiveness and eternal life are more precious then anything else!

2008-11-24T16:33:00.002-04:00

As the song goes, "I can only Imagine"

It overwhelms me when I try to imagine what it's going to be like to be in the presence of Jesus. What will it be like? I know that everyone will bow before him, both saved and unsaved. What's it going to be for the saved? Will some of us just run up to Him and embrace Him after he says "Enter, my good and Faithful servant"? Will some of us just be so over whelmed that they will jump for joy and shout? For the unsaved, It will be a lot different...

WHY I CHOOSE TO BE A CHRISTIAN

I have been a Christian for 11 years. Why do I choose to be one? There are a lot of reasons why I follow Jesus. Here are some of them:

1: Jesus died for EVERYONE, we are all sinners.
2: By trusting in Him, my sins are forgiven.
3: Because my sins are forgiven , I will have eternal life and be in Heaven.
4: Without Jesus, I would be on the way to Hell.
5: He loves me more than any human could.
6: His plan for my life is a lot better then what I could design.
7: When you pray, he hears you, and listens without any preconcieved notions.

I was not forced into Christianity. God spoke to my heart and said “come to me.”

When I was a kid, I did not believe in God. I figured “If there is a God, why isn't he helping me when
I'm being tortured and picked on in school? If he does exist, he must not think much of me.” When I became a believer, it became clear to me that He allowed it to happen so that I would trust in Him. It took me a long time for that to sink in, but it was for the best, and has made me a stronger person.

2008-09-30T22:27:00.001-04:00

I've had a lot of things going on with me the past couple of weeks. I've told you all about my problems, but God seems to be tellin me something. A couple weeks ago, I found a magazine at Church, with 2 articles that could have been written about me. The first one was about a guy that was dealing with a weight problem, and he was turning to God for help with that. The one thing that really gave me hope was that he was married, even though he checked in at over 400 lbs. I'm not that big, but it gives me hope that there's gotta be some woman out there that can look past stuff like that. Second article was about a guy who got picked on in school like I did and it took him a while to get over it and forgive. Ok..Saturday, while at the store, I ran into the lady that got my Mom hurt. I walked away so that I wouldn't cause a scene. Then on Sunday, wouldn't you know it, the sermon was on forgivness? Funny how God lines things up to happen, isn't it? Well, after all this stuff, I feel a LOT better, letting all that crap go.

2008-09-23T23:20:00.001-04:00

God hears our prayers, but it's a 2 way street, we have to listen to what HE has to say!

2008-09-07T22:52:00.002-04:00

Today in Sunday School, the topic was forgivness. I've posted about this before, because it's a bit difficult for me to forgive, when it comes to all the things I've been through. But, I'm trying with everything I have to come to terms with what happened to my Mom and what happened to me in school , and hopefully soon I'll be able to put it all behind me and forgive the people involved.

2008-08-27T18:09:00.002-04:00

Lord, after hearing about how some of the people who live in a trailer court near where I live are in really bad straights, please help me not dwell and complain about my problems!

2008-08-27T18:08:00.002-04:00

Some Prayer Requests for today:

For My Mom, who has to have some medical tests in October
For me to lose more weight
For everyone who needs help anywhere in the world.

2008-08-07T23:05:00.002-04:00

I really am starting to admire Dan, my pastor. How he does all of his pastoral duties and takes care of his big family I will never know! But he is a great guy, and an excellent preacher. You can tell God is working through him!

2008-08-07T23:02:00.002-04:00

I'm getting ready to read Revelation again. I've tried to read it before, but some of the things in it are way over my head. The only thing I know is that Jesus' return is sooner then most of us think!

2008-07-13T21:39:00.001-04:00

Lord, I pray that you would help me get over my shyness so that I can be a more effective witness for you!

This Week

2008-06-29T22:36:00.001-04:00

This week, we have Vacation Bible School at my church, and my Mom and I helped out. It's amazing how quick some kids can pick up knowledge! Most of them were eager to learn about God, and did a good job!

Things You Never Hear In Church

2008-06-14T20:25:00.001-04:00

Things You Never Hear in Church

- Hey! It's my turn to sit in the front pew.

- I was so enthralled, I never noticed your sermon went 25 minutes over time.

- Personally I find witnessing much more enjoyable than golf.

- I've decided to give our church the $500 a month I used to send to TV evangelists.

- I volunteer to be the permanent teacher for the Junior High Sunday School class.

- Forget the denominational minimum salary, let's pay our pastor so he can live like we do.

- I love it when we sing hymns I've never heard before!

- Since we're all here, let's start the service early.

- Pastor, we'd like to send you to this Bible seminar in the Bahamas.

- Nothing inspires me and strengthens my commitment like our annual stewardship campaign!

Christian One Liners

Don't let your worries get the
best of you; remember, Moses
started out as a basket case.

*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*

Some people are kind, polite, and
sweet-spirited until you try to sit in their pews.

*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*

Many folks want to serve God,
but only as advisors.

*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*

It is easier to preach ten sermons
than it is to live one.

*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*

The good Lord didn't create anything
without a purpose, but mosquitoes come close.

*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*

When you get to your wit's end,
you'll find God lives there.

*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*

People are funny; they want the
front of the bus, the middle of the road, and the back of the church.

*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*

Opportunity may knock once, but temptation
bangs on your front door forever.

*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*

God Himself does not propose to
judge a man until he is dead.
So why should you?

*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*

Some minds are like concrete
thoroughly mixed up and
permanently set.

*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*

Peace starts with a smile.

*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*

I don't know why some people
change churches; what difference
does it make which one you stay
home from?

*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*

A lot of church members who are singing
"Standing on the Promises"
are just sitting on the premises.

*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*

We were called to be
witnesses, not lawyers or judges.

*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*

Be ye fishers of men. You catch
them - He'll clean them.

*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*

Coincidence is when God
chooses to remain anonymous.

*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*

Don't put a question mark
where God put a period.

*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*

Don't wait for 6 strong
men to take you to church.

*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*

Forbidden fruits create many jams.

*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*

God doesn't call the qualified,
He qualifies the called.

*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*

God grades on the cross, not the curve.

*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*

God loves everyone, but probably prefers "fruits of the spirit" over
"religious nuts!"

*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*

God promises a safe landing,
not a calm passage.

*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*

He who angers you, controls you!

*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*

If God is your Co-pilot - swap seats!

*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*

Prayer:

Don't give God instructions -- just report for duty!

*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*

The task ahead of us is never as

Prayer for the day

2008-05-27T22:50:00.001-04:00

Lord, I pray that justice will be done for this kid in Florida who was treated in such a cruel manner by his classmates and teacher. No person should have to put up with that!

2008-05-22T22:04:00.001-04:00

Lets see:

We have wars going on, earthquakes, people starving, crazy weather, and all sorts of stuff going on. Does Matthew 24 ring a bell? We were warned! Don't call me a nutcase, but it's my firm belief that Jesus will be here SOON!

2008-05-06T23:24:00.001-04:00

Today, let's all pray for those killed, injured, or left homeless in that typhoon in Burma.

2008-04-27T21:48:00.002-04:00

This week, we had Revival at my Church. The Guest Speaker had powerful messages every night. From it, I got a lot. I now realize that there are still some things in my Life that I need to let God handle. So That's exactly What I'm gonna do!

2008-04-26T21:47:00.001-04:00

Christian

By Maya Angelou

When I say... "I am a Christian"
I'm not shouting "I'm clean livin."
I'm whispering "I was lost,"
Now I'm found and forgiven.

When I say..."I am a Christian"
I don't speak of this with pride.
I'm confessing that I stumble
and need CHRIST to be my guide.

When I say... "I am a Christian"
I'm not trying to be strong.
I'm professing that I'm weak
and need HIS strength to carry on.

When I say... "I am a Christian"
I'm not bragging of success.
I'm admitting I have failed
and need God to clean my mess.

When I say... "I am a Christian"
I'm not claiming to be perfect,
My flaws are far too visible
but, God believes I am worth it.

When I say... "I am a Christian"
I still feel the sting of pain,
I have my share of heartaches
So I call upon His name.

When I say... "I am a Christian"
I'm not holier than thou,
I'm just a simple sinner
who received God's good grace, somehow.

2008-04-13T21:50:00.002-04:00

A common misconception is that once you become a Christian, your life will be nothing but smooth sailing. That is wrong! How can we grow if we had no difficulties in life? After a fairly difficult week this week, I've come to learn that the hard way. I am going to try my hardest from now on to give my troubles to God and let him lead the way!

2008-04-05T22:56:00.000-04:00

We are born broken , but the Grace of God is the Glue that repairs us!

Happy Easter Everyone! Let's not forget what this day is about, the Resurrection of the Lord! If not for that, what would we have to believe in?

2008-03-15T22:21:00.002-04:00

Forgiveness can be so hard sometimes. I've been there, when it comes to what they did to me in school, and what happened to my Mom. Somedays, I feel like I'm over it and have forgiven all the people involved, but then there are days when I just want to kill them! Forgiving needs to be done, and God is the only one who can give you the strength to do it!

2008-03-02T23:17:00.000-04:00

Church Feud

2008-03-02T21:41:00.001-04:00

There was a feud between the Pastor and the Choir Director of
the Hicksville Southern Baptist Church..

It seems the first hint of trouble came when the Pastor preached on
"Dedicating Yourselves to Service" and the Choir Director chose to
sing: "I Shall Not Be Moved". Trying to believe it was a coincidence,
the Pastor put the incident behind him.

The next Sunday he preached on "Giving." Afterwards, the choir
squirmed as the director led them in the hymn: "Jesus Paid It All".
By this time, t he Pastor was losing his temper.

Sunday morning attendance swelled as the tension between the two
built. A large crowd showed up the next week to hear his sermon
on "The Sin of Gossiping." Would you believe the Choir
Director selected the song: "I Love T o Tell The Story".

Ther e was no turning back. The following Sunday the Pastor told the
congregation that unless something changed, he was considering
resignation. The entire church gasped when the Choir Director led
them in: "Why Not Tonight"?

Truthfully, no one was surprised when t he Pastor resigned a week later,
explaining that Jesus had led him there and Jesus was leading him
away. The Choir Director could not resist: "What A Friend We Have In
Jesus."

In my Yahoo Christian Group, we have been having a spirited discussion about the Rapture. We have members that think it will happen before the Tribualation,(My View), some during the middle, and some after. My opin is, if you're saved, it doesn't matter when it happens, cause you'll be going!

2008-02-08T23:21:00.000-04:00

Here's a quick question to you, Readers: What kind of Bible do you use? Personally, I mainly use the good ole KJV, but recently I've acquired a version called God's Word, it's pretty much in plain English.

2008-02-05T00:35:00.000-04:00

Lord, Once again I come before you to tell you how much I love you, and how thankful I am for you!

2008-01-27T22:55:00.000-04:00

Isn't it great to know that no matter who you are or what you've done in your life, Jesus accepts you just as you are! All you have to do is accept him into your heart and let him take control!
