Hey this is Andrea from project-genesis!! I just wanted to take a minute to thank you..yes you.. the followers for making us one of the top most requested Christian blogs on Tumblr! As of midnight last night we hit 14,000 followers and although numbers mean nothing to us we wanted to let you know personally how blessed we are that so many of you are moving in an extraordinary way on sites like...
"God did my Inspection"
Are you brave enough to let someone come in and check the quality of your cleaning? I am not sure I am. I don’t want anyone checking for dust behind my picture frames. Rules for my living space and my heart are different, however. There is one who I willingly give permission to examine my heart. Because I want to be pleasing to God, I have decided to pray a prayer found in Psalm 139 as often as...
"Jesus Said..No Strings Attached"
In a world full of hatred and hostility, love discovered is a treasure. But, sometimes the love that we settle for is conditional. “I will love you if…” or “I will love you as long as…” Because of impossible conditions attached many feel they will never find it. But, whether you realize it or not, love has already found you. God loves you with a deep love that no one can adequately...
"Godquest..Not Mapquest"
Because I travel often, I am put in the position of trying to navigate through towns that I have no knowledge of. If it were not for the maps available, I would always be lost. But, with a couple of clicks on the Internet, I can print out a detailed description of which way to turn and how long to stay on that particular road. This reminds me of the Bible’s promise that God orders my steps....
"Jesus Found A Cure"
Sometimes medicine doesn’t cure sickness, it just covers up the symptoms. It might control the fever, reduce the nausea, or manage the pain, but unless something else happens, the real problem can remain. That is not only true in medicine, but in the condition of many humans as well. Some look to substances, relationships, or destructive behaviors as medicine. They cover up the pain and...
"Jesus Has My Handle Bars"
As is my duty and privilege, I took my sister out to help her become acquainted with her new bike. It took her a while to figure out how to ride it. Before I got her going that day, she was relying more on her old way of protecting herself, than she was trusting the bike in front of her. With looks of horror, she would let go of the handlebars and reach back for me whenever she would hit a bump...
"I am God's Masterpiece-Nobody paints better!"
When it comes to artistry, there is no one who compares to God. He placed the stars in the sky to light the heavens. He carved out the canyons and fashioned the mountains. Every kind of terrain was his idea—from mountains to valley, rain forests to deserts. Creatively, he conjured up every animal in the earth, see and sky and then brought them to life. Everywhere you look, you can see...
"When Jesus Is Enough!"
Mindy struggled for years to find contentment and happiness. She couldn’t make enough money to purchase it, and there weren’t enough people around her to ensure it. Ultimately, she didn’t feel whole. Striving to discover what was missing, she went through a season where she was chasing external things. She raced after relationships, pursued happiness through material...
"Jesus Takes My Place Daily"
He couldn’t believe it. Although it was his fault, and he deserved the punishment, his dad had volunteered to take the 6 swats. The sixteen year old boy had verbally assaulted an authority figure at the brat camp that he was attending, but when his father showed up for a scheduled visit he asked to take his son’s place. Up to that point, the boy had been avoiding the consequesnces...
"God Is Free-I Promise"
“You know the cliché’ if it is too good to be true, then it must be.” She was referring to the free gift of salvation, the unconditional forgiveness of sins, and the limitless supply of love offered from God, through Jesus Christ, but I told her that there is no catch. God offers peace that passes all understanding and is bigger than any circumstance. He promises to always stick close to me...
"Love-God's Command"
Everything about her put me on edge. Although something inside me wanted to cut her down to size with some well-chosen words, I went the other way. With great determination and very little feeling, I began to encourage her. I searched for kind things to say and positive qualities to point out. It worked. Oh, I am not saying that she changed; I am saying that I did. Instead of getting...
"Don't Squirm Says Jesus"
When I was younger, I was micschevious. It seemed like I was always getting into trouble, and when it was time for my punishment, the wooden spoon was the tool of choice. There were times whend the spoon would come out to correct some behavior in my life and I wasn’t too willing to accept it. When it would try to make contact with my backside, i would squirm. By quickly adjusting my...
"I'm not home yet Jesus"
I have been able to discover beauty in all of the places I have visited. I love the mountains, trees, wildlife, and culture that I have encountered in different parts of the world, but, one thing is always true. I love coming home. Nothing suits me like being around my family in my home. I love it. The principle reminds me that the Bible teaches that as a person who has surrendered his...
