In my early years homeschooling, I found it very challenging to teach my daughter the Biblical Truth of how the world was created. The reason it was so difficult was because just about every place you go that deals with nature, talks about evolution and evolving. I had to be very creative and constantly reiterate the Truth. It can be a tedious task, however, well worth it! 7 Tips to Implement Creationism in an Evolutionary World 1. Evolution is like a Religion. It takes far more faith to believe we came from goo than to believe a loving God Created us. Evolution is unproved. God's Word is infallible. Evolution eliminates God from the equation. Creation makes God the center of everything. Biblically, the earth was never referred to as "flat". The fact that Columbus went out to prove it was clearly a sign that the men of that day did not read their Bible. In Job it says... He stretches out the north over empty space; He hangs the earth on nothing. - Job 26:7 And this was written … [Read more...]
Mortar Marriage
Of all God’s beautiful creations, the beach is where I love to be. Mountains are majestic, flowery fields are lovely, secluded streams in backwoods are peaceful – but the beach is heavenly. The blend of water, wind, sunshine and sand is the perfect elixir for the soul.

The rain came down, … [Read more...]
The Daily – My Battle
It is hilarious to me that every time God gives me a devotional to write, I almost always wind up challenged in that area. You see, I know that I write these devotionals for me more than for you. LOL! However, it is shocking really how many times I find myself stumbling, panicking, doubting and worrying. I wish I could just blame the devil for everything like some do...However, God has given me too much insight for that cop-out. I know the battle almost always lies within. I can literally feel the battle raging within me. Yes, we DO battle with the evil spirits and dark forces. However, WE, ultimately make the choices to do, think and say right or wrong. For we are not wrestling with flesh and blood [contending only with physical opponents], but against the despotisms, against the powers, against [the master spirits who are] the world rulers of this present darkness, against the spirit forces of wickedness in the heavenly (supernatural) sphere. - Ephesians 6:12 (amplified) Yes, … [Read more...]
