Whispers from the Holy Spirit

Are you the boss of your life    If you’re the boss of your life, taken responsibility and it’s a productive and fulfilling life, others will see that.   But, maybe you need to make a change.   If you’re the assistant--left the position of boss open--others are delighted to be your boss, satan being the most available. When we’re God's children, there’s no vanity involved; all our true power comes from and through Him.  If you feel you need to make a change, ask God to help you, slowly owning you new position as boss.

 In July of 2019, almost a year after my cancer diagnosis, I finished working on a page I call my Salvation Sheet.   I was saved in 1980 and lived in fear that someday God would bring someone into my life He wanted me to tell about my faith and salvation.   From time to time He did that.   In 2019, I finally sat down at my computer and began assembling verses and principles about salvation in a way that was concise and logical.   After about two months of revising, condensing and formatting, it was ready.   Often I used the website Gotquestions.org to find the references to back up the principles I had learned over the years.   I loaded my sheet onto a thumb drive and printed a dozen copies at the Library.   The first of many dozens.   Where have they traveled?   Like children with a life of their own.   John 3:3 Jesus answered him,  “Truly, truly, I say to you, unless one is born again [ b ]  he cannot ...
