Payback Time
So what can Paul mean by this verse? Though at first it sounds contrary to the Gospel, it actually confirms it. Read it again.

God is Father to the Fatherless
“Taste and see that the Lord is good.” A glimpse of God’s goodness changes us. If He is only slightly stronger than us, why pray? If He has limitations, questions, and hesitations, then you might as well pray to the Wizard of Oz.

Wonderful Promises
Prayer: Forgive me, Heavenly Father, for my sins. Purify my heart and cast out any foothold the devil may have in me because of my sin. Empower me to holiness and accept my life as an offering of praise and thanks to you. In the name of Jesus, I offer you my heart, my life, and my all. Amen.

Pursue the Virtue of Contentment
Success is not defined by position or pay scale but by this: doing the most what you do the best. Better to be married to a happy person who has a thin wallet than a miserable person with a thick one.

God Understands You
God, So human he could touch people. So mighty he could heal people. So heavenly he spoke with authority. So human he could blend in unnoticed for thirty years. So mighty he could change history and be unforgotten for two thousand years. Because Jesus was human, He understands you. And...

We Like Sheep
We need a shepherd to care for us and to guide us. And Jesus is that Good Shepherd. The Shepherd who lays down his life for the sheep. The Shepherd who protects, provides, and possesses his sheep. The Psalmist says: The Lord is my shepherd! The imagery is carried over to the New Testament as Jesus is called the good shepherd of the sheep!

God does Big Things with Small Deeds
God inhabits the tiny seed, empowers the tiny deed. He cures the common life by giving no common life, by offering no common gifts. Don't discount the smallness of your deeds.

Bear With Each Other
Thought: How can I not forgive a brother or sister for whom Christ died, when I know what God paid to forgive me? “Bear with each other and forgive... Col 3

His Perfect Love
If God loved us with an imperfect love, we would have high cause to worry. Imperfect love keeps a list of sins and consults it often. God keeps no list of our wrongs. His love casts out fear because he casts out our sin. Tether your heart to this promise, and tighten the knot.

Posture of Prayer
To be honest, I have wrestled a lot with this thing called prayer. *Why does God want us to pray when He knows what we need even better than we know ourselves? *What good does my prayer even do? Who am I to change God’s mind or challenge Him on His ideas?

Attribution Error
As Christians, we’re not to drag our brothers and sisters before God to be punished or examined under a holy microscope. We are to forgive them, just as Christ forgave all of us on the hard wood of the cross as He bled for us…and them, too. After all, we probably need forgiveness for something we have done or said, too.

The Power of Worship
As we walk through these challenging days of change in our world, both globally and personally, I am amazed with the direction the Lord gives us in His word. I was comforted by the fact that God has already let us know in Hebrews 12:26 that everything that can be shaken will be shaken so that only that which cannot be shaken will stand.

Changing Our Nature
God is changing you from the inside out. Ezekial 36:26-27 “I will put a new way of thinking inside you. I will take out the stubborn hearts of stone from your bodies, and I will give you obedient hearts of flesh. I will put my Spirit inside you and help you live by my rules and carefully obey my laws”
