Rely Only on God

None of us like to be “needy”. My need for God has led to my experiencing him on a new level.

Overloaded

Overloaded people fail. Like an airplane, we can only carry a certain amount of weight. How else can we soar like the eagle?

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

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

Place of Rest

When I try to figure things out all on my own it seems like it becomes more complicated with each angle I attempt to analyze and fix. When I admit it’s not mine to figure out and leave it in God’s hands, a sigh of relief escapes and peace envelops me.

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.

Voices in Our Head

Jesus is in the presence of God at this very moment standing up for us.

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.

He Leads Me

Prayer. As you have shown me time and time again, dear Father, I know that being with you restores me in a place within my heart that no one else can reach.

The Touch That Transforms

Jesus’ Touch Transformed. His approach was personal. Although He had the power to simply speak a word or command illness to leave, He often chose a more hands-on approach.

Be Teachable

We are truly fortunate to have a Father that disciplines and instructs us. It is our job to be teachable and make sure we are paying attention.

Freedom from Anxiety

Persevering through anxiety is easier when we know God intimately, believe His Word, and trust Him explicitly. In the process, we’ll discover that our anxiety is outweighed by His peace.

Serve One Another

Let's follow Jesus' example. Let's "put on the apron of humility, to serve one another"

Better a Millstone

What causes you to stumble? What takes you away from God rather than drawing you closer to him? What makes you want to stop believing rather than rest in peaceful trust?

Hospitali-TEA

Friends, God wants to use you. Explore the desires and gifts He’s given you. Discover ways God can use you to reach others in His name. Investing your life in this way will yield eternal dividends.

The Professional Killer Got It

We never know how a person will come to faith in Christ. It might take a hundred different encounters to draw someone to Jesus.

No Regrets

Lord Jesus, thank you for never giving up in your pursuit of your people. Thank you that you have never given up on me, even when I want to give up on myself. Thank you for showing me the way to joy. Amen.

Let God’s Light Through

John the Baptist recognized that for Jesus' interests to shine, John's own self-interest must decrease. We are like the lampshade to God's light; the thinner the lampshade is, the more the light will shine through.

Called to Compassion

Dear God, help me understand your unfailing compassion for the world, and for me too. I confess that I am as messed up as people around me, and am desperately in need of your redeeming love. Keep from me a smugness of heart that would hold back my own compassion for others. Amen.

The Tongue

The tongue does a lot of physical things for our body, but I believe that the prime gift God gave us with our tongue is to edify the saints and spread the Word to the sinners.

Don’t Look Back

Grief is more than losing a loved one. We grieve the loss of anything that was important to us, including a home, a career, or our health.

His Masterpiece

You are one-of-a-kind. There has never been and never will be another person on this planet exactly like you. You are unique, special and inimitable!
