Preordained Destiny

July 19, 2021 By Harold Long Leave a Comment

“The only person you are destined to become is the person you decide to be.” ~ Ralph Waldo Emerson Our decisions define us, not our circumstances.  When we face challenges, our choices will determine the degree of our success or failure. Fate chooses our beginning, but our decisions determine our destiny. When we decide to… Read More »

The Happy Way

June 22, 2021 By Harold Long Leave a Comment

“There is only one happiness in life to love and be loved.” ~ George Sand Life offers us two pathways: The Happy Way or The Scoffers Way. God created humans with free will, so we have the liberty to choose our path, despite our present circumstances. Both ways require a certain attitude, faith, and commitment.… Read More »

Fully Vaccinated

April 1, 2021 By Harold Long Leave a Comment

“There is no vaccine against stupidity” ~ Albert Einstein There is no doubt the number one phrase for 2021 will be “I am fully vaccinated,” and the second will be “I am not getting vaccinated.” What’s a person to do? Take the vaccine or avoid it at all cost? Is it all a bunch of… Read More »

Not What I Want But What You Want

March 16, 2021 By Harold Long Leave a Comment

“There are only two kinds of people in the end: those who say to God, “Thy will be done,” and those to whom God says, in the end, “Thy will be done.” All that are in Hell choose it. Without that self-choice, there could be no Hell. No soul that seriously and constantly desires joy… Read More »

Acceptable Temptation

February 12, 2021 By Harold Long Leave a Comment

The world’s ways can quickly become our ways. The relentless temptations from Satan will indeed become acceptable to us unless we have the Holy Spirit living inside us. Jesus reminds us that the world is under the principalities and powers of the Prince of Darkness. If we are not living the kingdom life, then we… Read More »
