Predictable God in an Unpredictable World by Robert Ricciardelli
Last updated on: January 26, 2011 at 7:35 am By Robert Ricciardelli
Life is unpredictable. We can be happy, healthy or rich one day, and sad, sick, or poor the next. So who can we to hold on to, feel secure with, and trust at all times? God through Christ in us never leaves us nor forsakes us. We can absolutely know that nothing, today or tomorrow, in life or death, can get between us and God’s love. God is with us, is for us, and in Him, our destiny is assured. Read more

Leaders Cannot Afford to Neglect Planning by John C. Maxwell
Last updated on: January 24, 2011 at 2:58 pm By editorconvergingzone
“Good planning always costs less than good reacting.” ~ Wayne Schmidt In October 2010 the most expensive public works project in America, ARC, officially met its demise. The project would have constructed two tunnels beneath the Hudson River to add much-needed railways between New Jersey and Manhattan. However, poor planning led to wasteful spending and put the project on pace to exceed its budget by at least $1 billion. A federal audit of the project brought to light an embarrassing... Read more

We Do Not Fear Darkness by Robert Ricciardelli
Last updated on: January 24, 2011 at 9:31 am By Robert Ricciardelli
We walk in a “ravine as dark as death” and yet we have nothing to fear because God is at our side; This is not just a comforting thought but reality, and an experience of the heart that we can trust. We shine brightly as the light of the world by His Spirit when we live in this reality of peace in the midst of suffering, disillusions, and grief. Shine your light in people’s sight, and watch God renew your... Read more

Unique Experiences in God by Robert Ricciardelli
Last updated on: January 23, 2011 at 2:03 pm By Robert Ricciardelli
No matter how ordinary we think we are, we all can have unique experiences in God’s presence, and unique missions announcing His presence to the world. All of creation can receive the grace of seeing God in the fullness of time. This experience is not for an exceptional few, but a gift that God wills for all to receive. But we must desire Him, embrace His love, and then we will know Him in a most personal way. Read more

Saturday, January 22, 2011 Stepping In Faith by Robert Ricciardelli Perfectionism can sometimes cover up the fear of failure. When we live a life of faith, we know that we win, regardless of how many times we have failed. Failure then becomes a learning process on the journey called life. Do not procrastinate or deliberate any longer, and do what you must do. With God, there is always opportunity to adjust and perfect along the way, but the first step... Read more

Holiness Precedes Power by Francis Frangipane
Last updated on: January 22, 2011 at 5:11 pm By editorconvergingzone
Many Christians look for shortcuts to the power of God. To try shortcuts is to become, at best, frustrated; at worst, a false teacher or prophet. Listen very carefully: there is tremendous power for us in God but not without holiness. Holiness precedes power. When John Saw Jesus Then Jesus arrived from Galilee at the Jordan coming to John, to be baptized by him. But John tried to prevent Him, saying, “I have need to be baptized by You,... Read more

What Do you Want? by Robert Ricciardelli
Last updated on: January 22, 2011 at 3:15 am By Robert Ricciardelli
What do you want? It is a powerful question that should set you in motion. It is also a tough question to answer. You have had everyone around you telling and demanding what THEY want. Connect with your heart, your core values, and have a conversation with God. He will bring clarity, and you will discover that your desires are truly His desires.
