Hold Fast to Truth
"If you hold to My teaching you are really My disciples. Then you will know the truth and the truth will set you free." – (John 8:31b-32)
Jesus is the truth that sets us free from the sin and deception that seek to entangle us. When we commit our lives to Christ, and invest our hearts and minds into learning Who He is, we are considered His disciples. However, we must not simply be readers of His word, but also doers of His word. Disciples display faith in action. As freedom is found and truth is made known, our lives should actively reflect His presence in us. May we embrace His teachings so that we know the truth, and walk boldly in the freedom that Christ bestows upon His beloved.
to God's Holy Word;
where the truth is found,
and freedom is heard.
When we choose embrace,
the teachings of Christ;
we must also move,
model a changed life.
The truth that we know,
should be evident;
in how we go forth,
in Christ, we're content.
Dear Heavenly Father, thank You that when we come to You and seek to know You, we find You. Thank You that You reveal Yourself to us, and set us free from the sin and deception that entangle us. Thank You that equip and empower us to do Your will, as we actively seek You. Forgive us for not investing in our relationship with You, or for not holding fast to the truth of Your Word. Teach us to trust You more, so that we will be quick to hold fast to all that You have promised, no matter how things appear. Lead us to be faithful doers and not mere talkers. Help us to love others as You so abundantly love each of us. May many come into a lasting relationship with You this season, as they encounter the truth of who You are, and what You have done for them, individually. Be exalted O God, as we actively reflect Your presence in us. Amen.

Surely goodness and love will follow me all the days of my life, and I will dwell in the house of the Lord forever. – Psalm 23:6
Yesterday, Today and Forever
This morning, as I have read through the 12th and 13th chapters of Hebrews, the following verse jumped out as a great reminder of the great hope we have in Him. Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever. – (Hebrews 13:8) Few words hold so much power and promise.
Jesus is our Healer, Redeemer, Father and Friend. He promises to never leave us nor forsake us, and His love endures forever. No matter what comes our way, He is present and His words remain true. Our greatest hope lies not only in who He is today, but in all that He has in store for us for all of eternity. May we trust in He whom we have known to be faithful in the past; receive all that He is offering to prepare us for today, and hope in the promises that will endure forever.
is always the same;
our Holy High Priest,
there's no greater Name.
He will never change,
His love shall endure;
we can trust in Him,
our hope is secure.
The God that has been,
is the same today;
and will ever be,
for now and always.
His love never ends,
His grace He pours out;
may we hope in Christ,
dispeller of doubt.
Dear Heavenly Father, thank You that You are the same yesterday, today and forever. Thank You that we can trust completely in You. Thank You that because of Your sacrifice, we can come to You and place all of our hope in You. Forgive us for doubting Who You are, or Your faithfulness when times are uncertain. Teach us to trust You more, so that we will be certain of who You are, regardless of what comes our way. Lead us to love others as You so graciously love each of us, and may many come into a lasting relationship with You as a result. Be glorified Lord God, as we trust in who You are and the unchanging nature of Your goodness and grace. Amen.

Let love and faithfulness never leave you; …write them on the tablet of your heart. – Proverbs 3:3
The Splendor of His Glory
And then the lawless one will be revealed, whom the Lord Jesus will overthrow with the breath of His mouth and destroy by the splendor of His coming. – (2 Thessalonians 2:8)
The lawless one is every force of darkness that would try to come against us. The imagery in this one verse is both powerful and promising. Imagine with but a breath from our Savior, every knee bowing, and every foe, falling from power? More than that, the structures that are set in place that seem so certain, destroyed, the moment He comes in His glory. What a wonderful and powerful God we serve! It is easy to forget that Christ, who cleared the temple, is also Christ our coming King. At His Name, every knee will bow and every tongue confess that He alone, is Lord. May we rise up in faith, and embrace the strength of our Savior, as He is our Warrior and the Defender of our souls.
and seek to destroy;
have no place to stand,
no strength to employ.
For greater is He,
who dwells within us;
our Savior and Lord,
soon coming Jesus.
It takes but a breath,
from our Savior's mouth;
and lawlessness ends,
all evil flees south.
When Jesus returns,
in splendor and might;
dark forces destroyed,
there won't be a fight.
Dear Heavenly Father, thank You that Your power is far greater than we realize. Thank You that though there are forces working against us, You, who are for us, are far greater! Thank You that Jesus will overthrow with the breath of His mouth, and that the splendor of His coming will destroy that which fights against us. Forgive us for making You too small in our own eyes, and help us to see You as the All-Powerful, Almighty, Creator of All, that You truly are. Teach us to trust You more, so that we may go forth in faith, depending on You in all things and at all times. Lead us to love as You love us, and may many come into a saving relationship with You. Be glorified O God, as we embrace the greatness of who You are. Amen.

When times are good, be happy. – Ecclesiastes 7:14
Seek to Sow
He replied, "… I tell you the truth, if you have faith as small as a mustard seed, you can say to this mountain, 'Move from here to there' and it will move. Nothing will be impossible for you." – (Matthew 17:20-21)
Jesus was responding to the disciples' questions as to why they could not heal a boy who had been suffering from seizures caused by demon possession. They were not being condemned for their lack of faith, but rather He was showing them how essential faith would be in all that they would be called to do in the future. The seeming mountains that stand in our way cannot be moved in our own strength. However, in Christ, the mountains are mere molehills, and He can accomplish all that He calls us to do, if we choose to allow Him room to be Lord. May we seek the Lord with all that we are, and allow Him access to our whole heart so that our small seeds of faith may flourish and grow great in Him.
fix on our trial;
look to the Lord,
all hope to beguile.
The smallest seed,
can grow, multiply;
tended by Christ,
bear fruit, fortify.
All things can be,
established in Christ;
mountains made plain,
needs become sufficed.
He is enough,
for our hearts to trust;
small seeds of faith,
He'll grow and raise up.
Dear Heavenly Father, thank You that You do not expect us to do things in our own strength, nor do You call us to somehow muster mountains of faith on our own. Thank You that You take our small seeds of genuine faith, and You grow them in Your grace. Thank You that You move in spite of us, and that all things are possible in You. Forgive us for fixing our eyes on the mountains, rather than on You, the Maker of mountains. Teach us to trust You more, so that we might see all things as opportunities for You to move, rather than road blocks in our path. May we live and love in the faith You are growing in us, so that many may come to know the saving grace that is available in You alone. Be glorified, Lord God, as we seek to sow the seeds that You are growing in us. Amen.

For it is commendable if a man bears up under the pain of unjust suffering because he is conscious of God. – 1 Peter 2:19
Come Close to Rest
Come to Me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For My yoke is easy and My burden is light. – (Matthew 12:28-30)
The burdens that we take up and try to carry are far too heavy and not meant for our shoulders. Some of these may include: our sin, excessive demands, oppression and persecution, and weariness in the pursuit of paths we were never meant to walk alone. Christ sets us free from the weight of the yoke our shoulders should not bear, and grants us rest in Him. Through our relationship with Jesus, the seemingly meaningless and mundane, can become spiritually productive and purposeful, as Christ comes and provides us with His peace, love, healing and help. He makes our yoke easy and our burdens light, in comparison to the weight of the way we were attempting to walk alone. May we lay hold of the rest Christ provides for our souls as we sincerely seek Him.
are weighing us down;
we need seek Christ,
where answers are found.
Jesus is kind,
and humble in heart;
He is gentle,
where solutions start.
Rest for weary,
strength when we feel weak;
gone are burdens,
we're not meant to keep.
His peace given,
healing and help too;
restored purpose,
refreshed and renewed.
Come near, dear ones,
He will grant us rest;
sweet interlude,
Christ's great faithfulness.
Dear Heavenly Father, thank You that You do not desire for us to carry the weight of the world. Thank You that You ask us to come to You and give You our burdens, and allow You to carry the weight that was never meant for us, and You replace it with that which You equip us to bear. Thank You that You are gentle and humble and have rest ready for our weariness. Forgive us for trying to carry things that we were never meant to bear, and help us to lay down the loads before You. Teach us to trust You more, so that we may continually come before You and hear clearly what we are meant to carry, and what we are to hand over to You. Lead us to walk in love, unburdened by loads not meant for us. May many come to know You, as they witness the freedom we have found in the ease of Your yoke. Be exalted, Lord God, as we learn from You each new day. Amen.

They will celebrate your abundant goodness and joyfully sing of your righteousness. – Psalm 145:7
The Comfort of Christ
He comforts us every time we have trouble so that when others have trouble, we can comfort them with the same comfort God gives us. – (2 Corinthians 1:4, ERV)
Not all pain and suffering are bad. Often our pain has a purpose. The very comfort that we receive from Christ, grows in us a compassion and empathy for others who suffer in a similar way. God can use our experiences to express His goodness through us, as we are able to listen and understand others in a way that those who have not experienced similar suffering could not. May we embrace His goodness and grace in our times of trial and trouble, so that we may be equipped to offer comfort and compassion to those who experience similar trials one day.
through trial and pain;
when troubles do come,
His presence is plain.
Look for His goodness,
despite suffering;
kindness extended,
Love's true offering.
Just past our trials,
Christ often brings due;
a chance to extend,
how He loved us through.
Embrace His goodness,
regardless of pain;
trust in His purpose,
allow Him to reign.
Dear Heavenly Father, thank You that You are always good, and that You comfort us when troubles come so that we too, can comfort others as we have been comforted by You. Forgive us for thinking that there could not possibly be a purpose in our pain or trials, and help us to keep our eyes fixed securely on You. Thank You that even in the midst of our suffering, You provide Your peace, Your presence, and tangible evidence of Your love for us. Help us to trust You more, so that we may go forth in faith, allowing You to speak through our places of pain to touch lives for Your glory. May many come to know of Your loving kindness, and come into a saving relationship with You. Be exalted, O God, as we trust You to be our comfort, so we too, can comfort others. Amen.

I thank You and praise You, O God of my fathers: You have given me wisdom and power. – Daniel 2:23
Creating Bonds in the Body
There should be no division in the body, but that its parts should have equal concern for each other. If one part suffers, every part suffers with it; if one part is honored, every part rejoices with it. – (1 Corinthians 12:25-26)
First and foremost, we are called to be a part of the body of Christ. We were created for relationship with God and with people. His intention was not for us to hide out with a few fellow like-minded souls for His sake, but rather to invest in the bigger body of Christ. We are called to contribute the gifts that He has placed in each of us, and to love and care for one another, despite our differences. Our hearts ought to celebrate the strengths of our sisters and brothers, not become points of envy nor contention. When someone is suffering, we are invited to walk beside them and extend our strength and support, and as one is honored, we are meant to rise up and rejoice alongside them in their accomplishments. Unity in the body comes as we live life together – in sorrow and in celebration. As we are able to be real with one another, we are creating bonds in the body as Christ intended. May we go forth this day in faith, with genuine concern for the body of believers around us. Let our hearts be united in purpose as we seek to serve Him well.
find way enter in;
for though we're many,
we are all for Him.
No gift is greater,
but all are the same;
granted by Jesus,
to spread His great Name.
Build up the body,
united in Him;
grieve when there's mourning,
rejoice when they win.
Walk with each other,
united in love;
as God intended,
our hope from above.
Dear Heavenly Father, thank You that You created each of us with different gifts for different roles to build Your church. Thank You that no role nor gift is greater than another in Your eyes. Thank You that You ask us to love one another the same – to suffer with the suffering and to rejoice with those who are honored. Forgive us for seeing ourselves as less than or greater than we ought to, and help us to focus all of our attention on what we can accomplish for You and in You, rather than anything that is focused on self. Teach us to trust You more, so that we may operate in the light of Your love. Lead us to love well, so that we may invest in the lives of those around us. Show us how we are to grieve with those in mourning and celebrate with those who are rejoicing. May many come into a saving relationship with You as we seek to honor You in all that we say and do. Be glorified, O God, as we live and love as Your body of believers. Amen.

I recently gained an interested in revolvers, in particular Ruger double actions. That got me thinking about one of the first .22's I've ever fired, and of of the funnest guns, my fathers .22 single action.
Recently I started looking at the ruger single six and the blackhawk. I used to consider of these just range guns. Then I got thinking, why do I consider these single action revolvers JUST range guns? I wouldn't consider a bolt action rifle to be just a range piece because of an "antiquated, slow firing design".
I think my previous opinion of single actions being only valuable for range use and interesting for their classic looks and history is putting an incredibly low expectation on a very reliable and durable revolver. Now I'm of the mindset that a durable single action revolver could make a great camp, truck, and hunting gun.
So what do you guys think? Where does a single action revolver fall in your gun collection? Do you see it as a practical tool or just an interesting addition?

Awesome Google Adsense Plugin Dashboard Killer Fix
Awesome Google Adsense Plugin Dashboard Killer Fix
I admit it… I'm a WordPress Plugin junkie.
Most of the time my habit is thrilling.
I learn new ways to add content, backlinks, ads and all kinds of cool stuff…
Plugins are just plain fun.
They turn on you and start to gobble up your wordpress site faster then an Apple fanboy (can you say "Ed Dale") can say Iphone 5.
After getting a stern email from my partner about server crashes and my plugin habits, I had the pleasure of cleaning up the mess made by one of my favorite plugins. The all powerful "Awesome Google Adsense" had somehow stolen my Dashboard.
So, if the same thing has happened to you, here's my fix.
The problem: You go to your http://yourdomainname.com/wp-admin only to discover either an error message or it will just revert back to your homepage or show a blank page. Bummer!
The fix:
- Go to your server CPanel
- Click on "File Manager"
- Click radio button next to "Document Root for"
- Choose your domain from drop-down menu
- Double-click on "wp-content" folder
- Double-click on "plugins"
- Find the "awesome-google-adsense" file
- Delete by pressing the X in the menu bar
Now go back and try to log-in to your wp-admin dashboard again.
Once you get in… change your password and run whatever cool security plugin you have activated.
I'm still not sure what made the "awesome" plugin go hay-wire, but at least I can access my sites again.
Let me know if you have any more info or better ways of dealing with this killer plugin.

Stovetop cleaner?
|Tue, 02-28-2012 - 1:50pm
Hopefully I'm not putting this in the wrong spot, but I figure it's kitchen related... :)
Anyone know of a good stovetop cleaner?
|Mon, 04-02-2012 - 10:00am
I hate trying to clean burned on gunk from the stove. Our (gas) stove top is black, and it's true that black hides the stuff better. Still, I hate knowing there's stuff there I can't clean off. It started two weeks after we got the stove. I've never been able to clean it. I've tried baking soda pastes, Easy Off, these stove top scrub pad things, and countless other remedies, but nothing works 100%. The baking soda paste always worked the best, though.
|Wed, 02-29-2012 - 2:23pm
I'll start by saying I hate my black glass electric cook top! Anything, even water, will burn to it and stay forever! The ceramabrite cleaner that came with it just sucks. I ran across this on pinterest.com: sprinkle baking soda all over it, mix a little dishsoap and hot water and wet a rag with it. Lay the rag over the soda-sprinkled stove top. Let it sit a minimum 15 minutes. Cover it with saran wrap if you leave it very long, so it won't dry out. I think I left mine about an hr. Then scrub with the rag. This got 95% of the crap off my stove. Use gloves since the soda is kind of abrasive on skin and go back and shine it up with windex.
|Tue, 02-28-2012 - 10:12pm
I'll skip the ammonia, as I have two "helper kitties"... But, said helper kitties recognize the bleach bottle and steer clear of it. I'll have to try the rag followed by bleach and dish soap.. I don't know why I didn't think of that given that I clean my sink weekly with a bleach and dish soap solution to get the stains off.
And now I feel kind of stupid... LOL
And now I feel kind of stupid... LOL

Best Foods for Cyclists
Anytime: Fruits and Vegetables
1 / 10
"These are staples for an endurance athlete," says sports nutritionist Matt Fitzgerald, author of Racing Weight and Diet Cults. While eating different types and colors of fruits and veggies is the best way to ensure you get a variety of nutrients, you'll still reap some benefits if you play favorites. "When people put [food recommendation] lists together, they're too clever by half and they try to give you surprising foods or exotic foods because they don't want it to be mundane," says Fitzgerald. "But the problem is, eating is something you have to do three times a day every single day. There's something to be said for foods that are functional and support athletic performance, but you want them to be familiar, affordable and accessible."

It's possible. You can set the locale. However, i would not recommend that. We've tried it at early stages, it's basically fighting the system. We have same requirement for changing language, but decided to settle to the fact that UI should be same as phone UI. It was working via setting locale but was too buggy. And you have to set it every time you enter activity ( each activity ) from my experience. here is a code if you still need this ( again, i don't recommend that )
If you have language specific content - you can change that base on the setting.
It's really work... fa=Presian... en=English...
You can find an example here
I was looking for a way to change the system language programmatically. While I fully understand that a normal application should never do that and instead either:
there was a need to really change the language of the system programmtically.
This is undocumented API and thus should not be used for market/end-user applications!
Anyway heres the solution i found:
I am changed for German language for my app start itself.
Here is my correct code. Anyone want use this same for me.. (How to change language in android programmatically)
my code:
If u write
in every activity than no need to set it every time you enter activity
The only solution that fully works for me is a combination of Alex Volovoy's code with application restart mechanism:
Locale configuration should be set in each activity before setting the content - this.setContentView(R.layout.main);
Just adding an extra piece that tripped me up.
While the other answers work fine with "de" for example
The above wont work with for example
Needs the following slight change to work with
Alex Volovoy answer only works for me if it's in onCreate method of the activity.
The answer that works in all the methods is in another thread

Here is the adaptation of the code
Hope that it helps.
Just handle in method

I think it is useful
