Offense

       Before we can discuss offense, we must first understand what it really is. Offense is the act of creating resentment and hurt feelings. And here's the hard truth: the closer someone is to you, the greater the impact of their actions when they hurt you. Take a moment to really absorb this: the more someone means to us, the deeper their offense can go. We often get wrapped up in how we're treated and justify our offense based on what was done to us. If you think back to your childhood, chances are, you experienced some trauma. And yes, trauma sucks. I know it well. I’ve spent 43 years of my life trapped in the bait of satan, focusing on being hurt, offended, and angry. And I’ll tell you, that feeling sucks. I didn’t like it—at all.     I attended therapy for about five years, and while it’s helped me, it hasn’t “healed” the deep wounds of the past. Those feelings were always there, lingering. But the real question is: How do you get over the offen...

Sin

  Sin, in its simplest form, is anything that goes against God's will . It can take two main forms:   commission sins   and   omission sins . Commission sins are those actions where we knowingly do something wrong—lying, cheating, stealing, or swearing. On the other hand, omission sins occur when we fail to do what we should—like neglecting to help someone in need, skipping prayer, or remaining silent in the face of injustice. As Romans 6:23 reminds us, “For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.” The punishment for sin is death—eternal separation from God. Yet, through Jesus Christ, we have the gift of salvation, and eternal life. When we accept Christ into our hearts, we are forgiven and given new life. However, even as Christians, we still sin. It is part of our fallen nature. The difference now is that we are not condemned for our sin but have access to forgiveness through repentance. When we sin, we must first re...

Why do we die?

As we all know death is part of life and it leaves us feeling heartbroken, sad, and angry. Since death impacts every one of us it is important to understand death and why it happens. What is death? The separation of the soul from the body. It is the beginning of another existence in heaven or hell. Why do people die? In Genesis 2:17 God tells Adam that eating from the Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil will result in death.  No, God didn’t say you would die immediately after eating off the tree.  God never clarified to Adam when he would die. Sin entered through Adam, now we all inherently are sinners and deal with death and suffering. This passage is God telling Adam the consequence of sin is death. Death is going to happen to ALL of us at some point. We will have to face it ourselves and witness the death of our loved ones. This can be such a hard concept to grasp, especially when death happens to babies, children, young adults, and even those who are older. We end up as...

In A Relationship

  I was so rebellious, disrespectful, prideful, and just rude looking back. I was told I had a strong personality and knew what I wanted. I was told all the lies of the world. I believed them!  When I came to God I learned that these behaviors are like idolatry and witchcraft ( 1 Sam 15:23). What? WOW! Reread that! REBELLION and PRIDE are like witchcraft and idolatry. I was sure of myself when I said I did not participate in witchcraft or any of these things; tarot cards, stones, etc. I sure did not idolize anyone. So I thought. I learned that even though I did not participate in these things I was guilty of them through my behavior(s). When you give yourself to Jesus, I mean fully give God full authority over your spirit, soul, and flesh. These desires of the world go away. We were created for relationships. Genesis 2:18 tells us that God made a helper( Eve) for Adam. This verse shows that we are created with the intention of companionship. It wasn’t until I entered a full-ti...

Intro

       Hello, let me introduce myself. My name is Jane, and I have been called to share my journey as a Christian with you. Hopefully, through the experiences that I share and the knowledge that has helped me, I can help you establish a relationship with Jesus too.      At some point (hopefully soon), I will share my testimony. For now, a quick background about me. I was raised in a catholic household. I have always known Jesus is the son of God. I have always had a foundation in Christianity. I never understood that you have to have a relationship with God. Honestly, living in the ways of the world took my priority over ever establishing a relationship with God.      In March of 2024, my boyfriend and I found Kelly K Ministries. He focuses on bringing believers back to God. He put things into a perspective that we could understand. We listen to Kelly K daily. We also follow Ryan Edberg as well. I recommend checking these two out. I also...
