Always With Us

Abandonment is a common issue in this world. Maybe you have experienced it yourself. But God says he will stick with you no matter how hard it gets.

Trials

I don't know about you, but it is hard for me to appreciate our need to go through trials. In fact, trials in life are just plain hard to tolerate!

Slow Down: Work in Progress

Often we are impatient with the speed with which God works. Christ followers are taught that spiritual growth is a lifetime affair.

Reflections

I sit and I watch in awe, in wonder at the works of Your hands. It’s so majestic, yet so refreshing all in the same breath. Your power so quaint yet well-defined with each wave. You have taken me captive. I can’t seem to pull away.

One Breath

I’m reminded of how fragile life can be and how easily I forget that it is so. I get glimpses and reminders of my eternal destination but they are all too quickly swallowed in the temporal of the here and now. The crazy. The busy. The hectic.

In God I Trust

“Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; In all your ways acknowledge him and he shall direct your paths.” Proverbs 3:5-6

Jesus Became Like Us

John 1:14 says, “The Word became flesh and lived among us.” The God of the universe left the glory of heaven and moved into the neighborhood. Our neighborhood! Why? Because He loves to be with the ones he loves!

Jehovah-Kavod

“Oh LORD God Almighty, who is like you? You are mighty, O LORD, and your faithfulness surrounds you” (Psalm 89:7).

Seek and to Save

Jesus came so that the last could be first, the sick could be healed, the sinners could be saved, and the lost could be found. That was his purpose: to fix that which was broken ? not just us, but our world, our humanity, and all that goes with it.

A Christmas Prayer

Lord Jesus, We, like the wise men, are looking for a star. This Christmas, we ask you, heal us, help us and be born anew in us. In a new hope, Your Children

Peace on Earth

As we enter this yuletide season amidst a fallen world of strife and conflict, we should be reminded about what Jesus said about peace. “Peace I leave with you; my peace I give to you."

The Sacrifice of Praise

Why is praise called a “sacrifice”? I believe it is because true praise given in the less-than-ideal situations of life indicates that I sacrifice my right to grumble about people, circumstances and God; I willingly forsake action which ‘comes naturally,’ is ‘only human’ and which ‘everyone’ indulges in.

His Word Remains Forever

Today's Thought: I will place my complete confidence in God's unchanging Word and will rest upon His faithful promises to all believers for supernatural living.

Cast Your Cares on God

Father, teach us to rest in Your love for us. Too often we get sidetracked by the cares and the concerns of this world. Remind us of the need to keep our attention on Your promises to us. Remind us to come to You when we are worried, alone, tired, lonely, and afraid.

He Bears and He Gives

Thought: Today I will take careful inventory of my burdens and my worries and be sure that I am casting them all on the Lord with the certain knowledge that He cares for me. I will also encourage those around me to cast their cares upon the Lord.

Learning to Cast

Casting my anxiety on God will take practice. Instead of discouragement when we find ourselves worrying about the same thing we have given over to God, we simply do it again knowing that our wise and gracious Father understands that we are novices.

Be These Three

Be happy, be praying, be thankful, this is the will of God for us. “Rejoice always, pray without ceasing, in everything give thanks; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you.” 1 Thessalonians 5:16-18

The Merciful

Jesus says the merciful are shown mercy. Forgiving others allows us to see how God has forgiven us. The dynamic of giving grace is the key to understanding grace. For it is when we forgive others, that we begin to feel what God feels.

Is Your Attitude Ruining Your Relationships?

"Let your gentle spirit be made known to all men.” Philippians 4:5 We live in a society that is filled with hurting people, many of whom go unnoticed...

A New Name

The saying, “Sticks and stones may break my bones, but words will never hurt me” could not be any more false. Actually, verbal abuse cuts to the core and wounds the spirit like piercing arrows.

The Rock Pile

While our prayers may not be answered in the way we want, God will respond to our cries. Instead of despairing that things are not turning out as we hoped, let’s keep our eyes open for the ways he begins to lift the weight from pressing on our lives and brings relief, stone by stone.

Right Us Again

You shouldn't struggle on your own because, like a sheep, most likely it will be beyond your capability to get right again no matter how hard you try. Press the call button and seek out the Shepherd. He will have compassion and help you get on your feet again, or carry you until you’re strong enough to do so.
