Why? He let God break his heart over his sin. He responded emotionally to the stabbing pain in his heart. Do you? Spiritual disaster begins when you begin to quench the Spirit; you ignore the call that should wake you up. http://biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Matthew%2026:69-75&version=NIV 2009-10-01T15:38:48-05:00 Peter was Jesus' most faithful disciple--but even he denied Jesus when Jesus was arrested and put on trial. Jesus later forgave him, but this passage remains a heartbreaking story. http://biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Matthew%2010:33&version=KJV 2009-09-03T14:35:10-05:00 Jesus says he will deny those who deny him in front of men. He will deny them before God in heaven. http://hutchcraft.com/A-Word-With-You/Your-Hindrances/Disease-Prevention-4347 2008-08-27T16:18:28-05:00 Quick action at the first sign of infection - that's the secret of preventing major damage. Not only from an infectious disease, but from the most highly contagious virus of all - the sin virus. If we nip it in the bud, we can avoid it's spread and a whole lot of suffering. http://hutchcraft.com/A-Word-With-You/Your-Most-Important-Relationship/Running-Into-Busyness-3950 2008-07-28T15:53:41-05:00 And that's what we do sometimes when there's something we don't want to deal with - we just run into busyness. That's especially damaging when what we're running from is God and something He's wanting us to deal with. http://churchgrowth.org/cgi-cg/webstore/ec.cgi?page=help.html&frame=yes&cart_id=p1194556104_487 2007-11-08T16:16:05-05:00 The news that your kid uses drugs or alcohol hits you like a ton of bricks. You are needed as God's instrument of Grace to others, but you need healing yourself. You are not alone. Turn to those who understand your pain and can offer help...ministry parents and their kids who have been there.
