The Holiday season is a time for gift giving. What is the most important gift you can ever receive in your life? Come listen to Papa Tom as he describes the best gift you can ever receive; the gift of righteousness in the true sense of the word.

This podcast introduces the thought that all of us are want to be in control of our lives. Further, we desire to control other people as well. In that sense, we want to be sovereign over them. This desire is unrighteous.

This is the antithesis of righteousness. Righteousness is being rightly related, rightly positioned, right hearted, etc. It does not mean we do the right thing all the time.

Papa Tom relates a story of seemingly impossible task. Yet, this task, like any miracle can only to accomplished by the grace of God.

God produces miracles on the earth through people who are rightly related to Him and are willing to give God all the glory. Evil beings do not want us to be rightly related to the Father. If someone receives the gift of righteousness, they can bring the Kingdom of Heaven unto the earth!

This story is about a miracle that took place because God moved through someone who received the gift of righteousness. The gift of righteousness is the best gift you will ever receive from the Father.

How often do we misjudge people? How often are we offended by what people say or do? Scripture tells us the following: "For the Lord sees not as man sees: man looks on the outward appearance, but the Lord looks at the heart". Scripture also tells us to "know no man after the flesh", in other words don't look at their appearance. Why? Is it because we develop a calculus in our rational minds, sizing up a person? How often are we mistaken when we perceive someone from the outside? Perhaps most often; at least more often than not.

Come listen to Papa Tom as he relates real life stories that describe people who misjudged people because they were judging from the outside. What happens when you are annoyed by someone's behavior until they do something extraordinary like saving the life of your child. As a consequence you change your mind completely about that person.

Scripture tells us to walk by faith and not by sight. Nonetheless, many us are led by our soul; mind, will and emotions. Yet, God our Father sees people and things differently. "My thoughts are not your thoughts, Nor are your ways My ways," says the Lord. "For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are My ways higher than your ways, and My thoughts higher than your thoughts."

Being willing and able to look into a person's heart and see them as God sees them is key to connecting to people and to God on a deeper level . As Yeshua told the Samaritan woman at the well: "the time now is when you shall worship God in spirit and in truth."

You may be "rough around the edges" yourself. But, know this God loves you for being just who you are; the real you. He sees you on the inside. Find out who you truly are and enjoy your life living there!
