You ever have a big decision to make? I believe we should follow what Scripture says the Apostles did in Acts chapter 1. First, verse 24, “They prayed” (cf. 1:14). Second, they followed the Scriptures (1:16, 20). Third, they used common sense (1:21-22). And fourth, they drew lots (1:26). That was the last we hear of lots, because in the following chapter the Holy Spirit will arrive. In the place of lots, we now trust the Holy Spirit to guide our thinking, put good desires on our heart and led us in peace.

A Message from our Provider:

“Jesus: All roads lead to tragedy – except one”

You will see many in this day who allow their children to choose and think for themselves long before they are able, and even make excuses for their disobedience, as if it were a thing not to be blamed. To my eyes, a parent always yielding, and a child always having its own way, are a most painful sight – painful, because I see God’s appointed order of things inverted and turned upside down – painful, because I feel sure the consequence to that child’s character in the end will be self-will, pride, and self-conceit. You must not wonder that men refuse to obey their Father which is in heaven, if you allow them, when children, to disobey their father who is upon earth.
