Wisdom to Change
And I am thank Christ Jesus our Lord who has enabled me, because He counted me faithful…1 Timothy 1:12
Faith is a faithful person in very thing she does. She get’s up early to make sure everyone is taken care of and their needs are met. She arrives to work early, back from lunch on time and faithful to complete her duties. Faith is faithful to come home and help the children complete their homework and upkeep the duties of her home. She’s also faithful to her friends whenever they need her. Wow, Faith is faithful or is she?
What’s your definition of faithful? I read several definitions but the one that really stood out was loyal. Was Faith loyal to God, in her prayer life, spending time in the Word, loyal in her worship, praise and Thanksgiving to the Father? Faith was not faithful in the things of God; she was faithful in making herself busy. God created us for His pleasure, but does He find pleasure in us? Do we make His heart glad and satisfied with our life, in what we say and things we do? Let me ask you a question, are you loyal in keeping the commandments. Are you loyal in keeping the covenant God made with us? Are you loyal to thank Him when you’re going through the storms? Are you loyal to give thanks only when God does something for you? Or are you loyal to man when you get something in return? Don’t be like the world, do for me then I’ll do for you.
It’s time to be faithful. Faithful to God in everything we say and do, along with our devotion and worship to Him. Today, ask yourself this question can God say this about me, Son/Daughter I have found you faithful. Let’s remain faithful, so on that great and notable day, He can say this about you, well done thy good and FAITHFUL servant.
Have a Beautiful Day

Do you Know the Name-Jesus
Wisdom to Change
For our heart shall rejoice in Him, because we have trusted in His holy name. Psalm 33:21
If I mention Michael Jordan, Bill Gates or Julia Roberts, most people know who they are. But what if I mention the name of Jesus what does that name mean to you? Could you tell me what Jesus means to you? Most people that don’t know Him would say He is a fictional character that was crucified on a cross. Others may say He’s the one with all the sayings in red in the bible. Many may know Him as a Great deity. But what do you know about the Name-the name of Jesus?
When you hear the name of Jesus, what do you think of? Do you think of His awesome power and authority? Do you think of His love towards you or His peace? What do you really know about that Name? If you were to ask anyone there will be many different answers as to what His name means to them and there is no right or wrong answer. It’s just when you mention Jesus to them, they have personalize what He is to them.
I’ll tell you what the name-the Name of Jesus means to me. Jesus means freedom. Whom the Son sets free is free indeed. I am free from the law of sin and death. Jesus means peace, a peace that surpasses all understanding. Jesus means love. For God so loved the world that He gave his only begotten Son. Jesus means wisdom, knowledge and understanding. In all my ways I will acknowledge Him and He shall direct my path. Jesus means hope. He is the hope of glory. Jesus means an awesome Provider, one who provides and takes care of all my needs.
When you talk about the One that I love dearly, this is what I know about the Name of Jesus, but what do you know about this awesome name?
