by Chris Bunton Agony of the heart,turns for our good.When giving ourselves to Him,trusting who we are. Nothing is true,about our pain.It lasts a moment,till winds blow it away. Nothing happens unknown;nothings new in this world.All is built on piles of past,and we shall fly by again. Eternity within us;our souls remain.Just a moment today;tomorrowContinue reading “Agony of the Heart”

Release
by Chris Bunton I was in the arctic.Those frozen forests of Alaska.North of Fairbanks,in the wild Yukon. It was night,and the moon shown,on the white, bright snow.Everything had a light, blue glow.

But Without Faith…
By Chris Bunton “But without faith it is impossible to please Him: for He that cometh to God must believe that He is, and that He is a Rewarder of them that diligently seek Him.”—Heb. 11:6 God has given each one of us a measure of faith so that we are able to believe inContinue reading “But Without Faith…”
A Terrible Christian
By Chris Bunton I’m a terrible Christian. It’s a fact. Other Christians look at me and say “He said what?” or “He believes what?” Or they might say, “That’s not very Christ-like.” And it’s true. I sin wickedly. But, they do also. They just commit the socially acceptable sins. They commit the churchy sins. Continue reading “A Terrible Christian”

It’s also that feeling of enlightenment, when you have experienced something that moves you, or alters your life, or fills a void, or answers a question for you. It’s something that moves you forward in yourContinue reading “Adventure Where You Are”
I Die Daily
By Chris Bunton There’s a verse in the Scriptures which says, “I die daily”. It is a small quote, within the context of a larger concept, but it’s a powerful tool for life improvement and spiritual growth. We often wake up in the middle of the night, or in the morning, full of anxiety. OurContinue reading “I Die Daily”

God’s Economy
By Chris Bunton There’s been much debate on what God’s will is in regards to our economic system. Some say God is a capitalist, and that capitalism is the only way to go. Others say that Jesus was a socialist. But what if it’s a mixture of both? There are several times in the Bible,Continue reading “God’s Economy”
Divide the Word
By Chris Bunton “Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.”—2 Timothy 2:15 So, how do we do this? Let’s break it down. “Study to shew thyself approved UNTO GOD.”— 2 Timothy 2:15a Notice it says “Unto God”. We are not studyingContinue reading “Divide the Word”
Of Pearls and Swine
By Chris Bunton “ Give not that which is holy unto the dogs, neither cast ye your pearls before swine. Lest they trample them under their feet, and turn again and rend you.”—Matt. 7:6 Like an oyster, in the deepest darkest depths of the sea, where you cannot breathe and have no control overContinue reading “Of Pearls and Swine”
