On this page Greg will share with the readers his preferred style of writing, which is the essay. The essays are written to provoke spiritual awareness in a quick narrative that is easy to comprehend. Each narrative takes on a different topic covering a variety of genres. No matter what they genre it will usually take godly approach to the subject matter. As a Christian, I love to use scriptural passages to break them down and explain what they mean to ordinary people rather than approaching them as a theologian. My blogs speak about things such as racism, incivility in politics, and a country divided by race, politics, religion, culture, sexual preferences, and other divides. We are an extremely divided society that seems to be pulling further apart. If we don’t address this matter, we will grow even further apart.

Greg literally has thousands of essays on his various hard drives over the past 22-plus years. Rather than going back in time and posting all those essays he would rather start out fresh writing at least one essay per day. This page would be better served if people could subscribe to the site to receive notifications when a new blog is posted. It is almost like receiving daily inspirations. Hopefully, they will be short and sweet so readers can read the entire message in just a few minutes. Since his videos are average about 20 minutes for the longer messages, the short blogs will be a different style of messaging intended for a quick dose of inspiration to start the day. Perhaps some can be labeled “quick bits,” or “spiritual nuggets,” under the blog banner so readers can know what to expect.

How To Develop an Intimate Relationship with God

I’m reminded often of moments when I stray from my conscious awareness of the Lord. When I am consumed by the cares of life and the worries this world presents to me, I find myself in a worry state of catching myself out there in the open naked to the elements of this world. At…

The Living Presence of God’s Holy Spirit In Us

Usually, when a subject title comes to me from the Lord in particular, it comes with scripture. The moment I sat down the scriptures came to me. I have a system on my computer as I have matured from being a writer over so many years. I’ve learned to grab scriptural passages and put them…

You will know them by their fruit

I once visited a men’s fellowship meeting at a church out in the inland empire where there were many men of God gathered under the heading of iron sharpening iron. I was unaware of a jacket I had put on that had marijuana leaves on it. One of the men told me it was shameful…

Are you willing to fight for what is right by God?

In this day and time, the game of life has changed for most people. Things once considered normal are no longer in the same spot where they used to be. It is as though we have gone through a tectonic shift of the earth so subtly and gradually that we did not see it coming.…

TELL MY PEOPLE ABOUT TRUTH

When I was asked to bring a message to our morning prayer group, I normally have quite a few messages in my pocket because over the past 25-plus years that has been what I do most. I write, but more specifically, I write about the messages the Lord gives me. At one point back during…

The Lord Thy God IS One

I was lying in bed meditating upon the Lord. I asked that He give me the words that could unite the world He formed. Though there are many demigods, there is only One GOD that is above all and IS the divine creator of all in existence, albeit mortal or immortal, soul, flesh, or Spirit.…

The Seeds We Sow

As a man who follows the teachings of Christ, I find it very alarming how my country, the land where I was born, has planted so many rotten seeds that unfortunately have already sprouted producing more of its kind. If you plant good seeds they will produce good crops. If you plant bad rotten seeds…

TIME, According to the Lord

The Lord asked me a question, “What is time?” I thought about it and answered, ‘I don’t really know how to define it.’ Then He said, “Look it up in your dictionary.” That I did… ‘It is defined as a limited period or interval, as between two successive events.” Another said, “duration regarded as belonging…

The Prayer Jobez Prayed

In the book of 1 Chronicles chapter 4 in verse 10, Jabez prayed to God a brief and simple prayer. According to the scripture, Jabez was more honorable than his brothers. His mother called his name Jabez because he bore him in pain. Here is that brief prayer I was awakened to speak about. “And…

The Eyes of The Lord Are Upon Us

I desperately try to remain ready once the Lord sends me a message to write. It could be while sitting and waiting on a friend or relative to finish their medical appointment. It could be during the middle of the night while I am dreaming or receiving a message from the Lord that wakes me…

Store Up Your Treasures in Heaven

“Do not store up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moths and vermin destroy, and where thieves break in and steal. But store up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where moths and vermin do not destroy, and where thieves do not break in and steal. For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.” Matthew 6:…

I Love My Life – I Love the Lord

You are the love of my life dear Lord, I love You with all my heart, soul, mind, and might. Through You, I live, breathe, and have my being. I could be nothing without You, nor would I want to. I love my life because you are in it, my dear sweet Lord. I love…

How Can I Serve Dear Lord

I was sitting in the waiting room waiting for a longtime friend to finish his medical procedure when this message came to me. I have been blessed beyond measure. Although I realize that to be true, still I seem to always beg the Lord to grant me more things. There is so much I would…

When The Pupil is Ready The Teacher Appears

I use this statement from time to time because it has been the story of my life. God has chosen me to do something, but I did not know what it was, nor did I see myself in a position of service. As I look back over my life I see many things the lord…

The State of Our Nation

I was hoping to stay away from essays that bring negativity into your space. Even though it is my intention, as hard as I try it’s impossible to stay away from things that come at you. In the same manner, it’s impossible not to notice the hatred and evil energy coming from certain factions of…

Let God Be God

I am always complaining and criticizing the world because it appears to be so vile, wretched, unrighteous, sinful, mean, and a host of qualities that do not appear to be helpful to us. How did we get to be like this? Surely it wasn’t God’s plan for us to be so ungodly. I am speaking…

A Tribute To Our Female Counterparts

By the time this essay gets published Mother’s Day for this year 2023 will be gone. However, that is no excuse to not tell our moms and all the moms from all around the world what they mean to us as well as the function they play in our world. We could not be here…

Good Versus Evil

Each day of our mortal lives we face this duality. It’s the way of the universe. By the way, the universe was created by God. Since that’s not a fact that everyone agrees with, I will tell you a story that should bring some clarity to the matter. There are both rewards and consequences to…

God’s Timing Is Not Like Ours

A word from the Lord came to me moments ago and I was more than obliged to answer His call. His messages usually come to me by way of a title. Many times they also come with a main scripture to anchor the message upon, but that is not always the case. At times it…

How The Lord Speaks With His Own

The Psalmist wrote in Psalms number 46:10: “Be still and know that I am God.” When I read scripture, as of late, it feels like it is speaking directly to me through my heart. No matter what the passage might be, it is as though the Lord was speaking gently directly to me. I used…

A Word To The Wise Governor of Florida

From Mickey and Minnie Mouse: This hatemongering example of a person who thinks it is bad to be woke. That is because he represents a group of people who think Black and Brown people, or mice, are like them. They prefer that we stay asleep when it comes to our rights as duly-born Americans, just…

We’re Running out of Thoughts and Prayers

Unfortunately, thoughts and prayers do not seem to be cutting the mustard these days. With yet another killing with the same type of guns that should be illegal for civilians to own and carry, we offer the family our thoughts and prayers. There’s usually a barrage of numerous government officials giving the families their condolences.…

HATE IT – OR LOVE IT

Hell Absolutely Terrorizing Everyone… It Touches. This is how my topics come to me to write about. That spells out the title, H.A.T.E. I.T. It appears the substance of hate has overcome the substance of love that IS God. I hope it’s just in my imagination, but it seems to be getting so thick that…

We Need A Larger Seat At The Table

I must admit that I am very impressed at our forward gain regarding racial matters but at the same time, I am greatly disappointed that we do not have a larger seat at the table when discussing what happens to and for us. This system has always been stacked against us for whatever reasons. It…

Lord, Why Did You Make Me This Way?

Before we get into this conversation I want to put us on the same wave link. First I want to acknowledge a similar title that I am familiar with called, Lord, Why Did You Make Me Black. That was a great poem that may have inspired my essay title, but my subject matter covers a…

A Tribute to Our Brother in Christ

I consider myself to be one of the most blessed persons in the world because of how the Lord has surrounded me with so many loyal and faithful friends, especially those who are my brothers and sisters of the faith. Perhaps it is because of our faithfulness in seeking His face and trying not to…

Thy Will Be Done

I wrestle with my faith as if it were a seesaw. Sometimes it is up and happy and other times it is very low down and weary. It dazzles me that the pendulum could swing so drastically toward both poles. Why is that? How can that be? Is this battle strictly inside of me or…

When Is Enough More Than Enough

Like most intelligent people with half of a conscience, this seemingly worldwide incivility and pure hatred we are experiencing are almost deafening and blinding. There is no rationale for pure hatred. People who practice this substance are most definitely against the character of God. But… that is yet a different matter because not all people…

The Act of Doing Good

Now that I am out here fully exposed I might as well let it all go. I am a follower of Jesus Christ. That is a distinction of its own, but I have covered that subject in many of my essays and videos. If you are reading this and do not know what it means…

A Message From The Lord

Grace and peace to you my brothers and sisters of the faith from He who drew us near, washed our iniquities, and forgave us our sins so we may be reconciled back to our Heavenly Father. He beckons us all to join Him in the battle to save souls for the Father as He currently…

A Conversation Between Me Myself and I

I am writing this message to anyone who may have experienced such things. For the record, this essay immediately follows the one I just posted entitled, A Closer Walk with Thee. The conversations I have with myself can get a bit heavy because at a point I am not certain who is on which side.…

A Closer Walk With Thee

I wanted to put something into practice that the Lord has revealed to me recently. Everyone who has accepted Christ as Lord has His “Kingdom Privileges.” Number one, you have the Holy Spirit living in your mortal body to be your Helpmate. He is in you guiding you through this life from this day forward.…

911 Emergency

Folks it is time to stop waiting on the idiots to join forces with us to make things right. They neither want to nor care to help sane people. They prefer chaos, strife, division, anger, hatred, separation, and unfounded conspiracies. In essence, they want to get rid of everyone in this country that does not…

When The Lord Calls

When the Lord thy God calls upon you and gives you a specific mission to achieve, the first thing you should do is say YES! But, what if you don’t know if it is really the Lord who is giving you this signal? What if it is only chatter in your mind? Still say YES!…

America Fully Exposed

America is a cacophony of lies and deceit despite the rhetoric we’ve been bamboozled into believing all these years. It is literally a cesspool of everything that is evil about mankind. This nation was founded upon some of the most despicable evil acts known to our kind. The blood of the devil himself ekes from…

What Are We?

I was lying in bed trying to figure out just what we are. The term came to me, sycophant. I looked the term up to see how it was defined. The definition was brief but said: Sycophant: 1.) A self-seeking, servile flatterer; fawning parasite. As a noun, it means a person who uses flattery to…

God’s Thoughts Are Not Like Ours

that we must accept Him as He exists. Not as a man… Not as a person, but in Spirit and in Truth. John 4:24. “God is Spirit, and those who worship Him must worship in spirit and truth.” One might wonder how are we to have a close and intimate relationship with a being that…

Our Father’s Children

It is fairly obvious that my mission is to bring God’s word to the body of God through Christ. Even though the Father would prefer that all His souls return back to Him, not all of them want to, or even acknowledge Him as their Creator. This is not a problem for the Father because…

Truth Be Told

As a follower of my Lord and Savior Christ Jesus, I’m appalled at the degradation of our society. Lawlessness, unrighteousness, cruelty, incivility, untruthfulness, hatefulness, and ungodliness are the order of today for people on this planet, regardless of how we personally feel about such things. When you live in a pool of ungodliness it is…

The History of the World

When it comes to the history of life on this planet, there are two different versions that we must pick between. The scientific version tells us about the age of the dinosaurs that inhabited the planet about 265 million years ago. They became extinct because of a meteor that crashed into the earth causing a…

The Lord’s Prayer Meaning

Over the years I have written my interpretation of the Lord’s Prayer many times before, but not recently from the perspective of a mature Christian. This would be a good time to share with you a fresh interpretation of where I am today. As we might know, He did not tell us how we should…

BECOMING THE BEST VERSION OF YOURSELF

As this message was coming to me I heard a voice in my spirit saying, “To be or not to be, that is the question.” This was statement was written by William Shakespeare in the play Hamlet. It was spoken by the main character Hamlet. I don’t wish to use any more of his speech…
