There are times that my stomach aches from thinking of all the inappropriate things I have said throughout the years. Why do such thoughts come back to mind out of the blue? There is nothing I can do about it now especially since I am remembering something so long ago, the thoughts may even be …
Called to Get In & to Get Out
We hear sermons preached frequently about being called IN TO something but we do not often hear about being called OUT OF something. I wonder how many pastors that have fallen into temptation were told by God beforehand to leave the ministry? I am not saying that God knew they would end up in an …
