We need more Wayshowers

“I AM the way, the truth and the life (John 14:6).”

Jesus was a powerful Wayshower to his disciples, the multitudes that followed him, individuals who experienced miracles through their interactions with him and to the religious leaders of his day.  The Gospels illustrate Jesus’ example of how to successfully navigate through the nine phases of life: Pre-existence with God, Birth, Life, Ministry, Death, Burial, Resurrection, ​Ascension and Second Coming. Shortly after Jesus’ ascension, in the early church people who utilized Jesus’ example and became Wayshowers themselves.

Today, we are Wayshowers. Following Jesus as a Wayshowerempowers you to be a Wayshower to others throughout your cycle of life.  As you live your life, you are setting an example for others to follow. Sometimes you may do it consciously through conversations and acts of service. Other times you may do it not really being aware that people are watching you and learning from you vicariously. Whether you do it intentionally or unintentionally, you are a Wayshower.

During COV-19, are you showing people the way to healing and prosperity or are you showing the way to panic and poverty? Amidst racial tension and social unrest, are you showing the way to love and peace or are you showing people fear and chaos? Are you a Wayshower of prejudice and discrimination or a Wayshower of unity and equality? Are you a Wayshower of the problems or a Wayshower of the solutions?

Hidden Treasure: You Are a Vessel, Not Just an Instrument

I AM Not an Instrument. I AM a Vessel “But we have this treasure in earthen vessels, that the excellency of the power may be of God, and not of us.” – 2 Corinthians 4:7 (KSB) Hidden in Plain Sight The image that Paul presents in 2 Corinthians 4 is that of a treasure hidden within an earthen vessel. In the Old Testament, people didn’t have locks, alarm systems, or cameras to protect their valuables. Instead, their belongings were often left exposed, making them vulnerable to thieves and robbers. To safeguard their most valuable treasures, they would hide them in jars of clay—earthen vessels—placing them in plain sight. A thief or robber would never think to look there because it wasn’t an obvious hiding place. Likewise, God has placed something valuable inside of you—a treasure of great worth. Yet, people often fail to see it. You may be right in front of them, but they don’t recognize your gifts, skills, talents, anointing, abilities, or sensitivities. You are hidden in plain sight bec...

Universe Means One Thing: Love

  Universe Means One Thing: Love "For all the law is fulfilled in this one word, love: Love your neighbor as yourself."   Galatians 5:14 (KSB)    Sometimes, the word “universe” can feel mysterious even spooky to some. Others think it's irreverent or sacrilegious when used in spiritual conversations. But what if we redefined it? What if “universe” simply meant love? What if it meant God, since God is love?  When we say, “the universe,” we can think of it as pointing to one word love. Just one word. The entire Bible, composed of 66 books and written by over 40 different authors, ultimately speaks to one central theme: love. From beginning to end, this divine book points us toward loving God, loving ourselves, and loving others.  In the Old Testament, God's people had 636 laws civil, ceremonial, and moral. They guided everything from relationships to religious festivals. But then Jesus came and said, “Let me make this simple Love God. Love yourself. L...

  The Kingdom is About Growth (Matthew 13:24-30)   The kingdom is about growth, not condemnation, judgment, sin, abomination, transgression, or iniquity. The kingdom of God is about growth. Jesus said it is like wheat and weeds, or "tares," as some versions say. As you grow, once you plant a seed in the ground, you don’t just get what you get; you also get weeds. As you keep growing, you will outgrow any behavior, any way of being, seeing, thinking, speaking, or acting that is not like God; you will outgrow it. Stop trying to pull up the weeds and keep growing. Stop trying to put people out of your life because some of the people you think are weeds are really wheat, and some of the people you feel are wheat might not be. Just keep growing, and it will automatically separate. Jesus said the growth in the kingdom is like a mustard seed. It starts as the smallest seed, but it’s potent. So do not despise the days of small beginnings; keep growing. Don’t compare yourself to a...
