A quotation from the ancient prophet, Isaiah:

“Seek the LORD while he may be found; call on him while he is near.”

About Steve Simms

I like to look and think outside the box. I have written two books: Mindrobics: How To Be Happy For The Rest Of Your Life and Your Sperm Won--Experiencing Your Value As A Championship Human Being. In college I encountered Jesus Christ and I have been passionate about trying to get to know Him better ever since. My wife and I lead a non-traditional church in Nashville based on open participation and Spirit-led sharing. We long to see the power and passion of the early church come to life in our time.

    Hi Steve, You make a very good point to consider and think about. What can a person say? How real is God’s Word? God has so many promises, but also warnings. As I search for him with all my heart– as he promises–He is there, He reveals his ways, He lets me know what He wants me to do, He corrects me, he teaches me, He is Merciful, Gracious, Loving, Powerful, IT’S NOT A JOKE….He gives us all a choice…For me and my house–from experience–I will serve THE LORD!

    What does this have to do with jobs/money vs satisfaction in careers?? Confused, I got here from a Relevant post.

    Thanks for the question, mike. I went back to the article on the Relevant facebook page and my link doesn’t make sense. So I took it down.
