Following the broad sweep of history and answering the questions: What is true? What is important? What, now, shall we do?
Modeling Your Life After God
Be constantly in the process of becoming more like God, making it your aim to imitate Him and act like Him in every area of your life. Ephesians 5:1 I declare by faith that I am going to take up acting. In every situation I face, I am going to imitate the character of...
The Quandary
The Believer has to account for one thing: unjust suffering. The atheist has to account for everything else. Adapted, Rabbi Milton Steinberg.
Cosmic Justice
See: Serendipity.
Never
Lord, may I never fail to come to the knowledge of the truth, never rest in a system of doctrine, however scriptural, that does not bring or further salvation, or teach me to deny ungodliness and worldly lusts, or help me to live soberly, righteously, godly; never...
But God
This is the day that the Lord has made; let me rejoice and be glad in it. (Note 1) Great is His faithfulness; His mercies begin afresh each morning. (Note 2) Yesterday's slate has been wiped clean. Tomorrow is not promised. Live today obsessed by God. Either bring me...
Yet I Sin
Eternal Father, Thou art good beyond all understanding, but I am vile, wretched, miserable, blind. My lips are ready to confess, but my heart is slow to feel, and my ways reluctant to amend. I bring my soul to Thee. Break it, wound it, bend it, mould it. Unmask to me...
A Biblical Repast
With the Holy Spirit as a guide, the food of God's Word is sweeter than any food on earth. Fact Check: True.
Unsearchable
… the unsearchable riches of Christ. Ephesians 3:8b Understanding the fullness of God’s character is like a child following a trickling brook. With each new step, the child discovers more and more as the brook flows downstream. Soon, the brook he knew well widens into...
Bigly
Sanctifying change isn’t the result of a formula. Transformation might not be immediate for you. Your struggles might not disappear in an instant. But you have the name, power, and authority of the blood of the risen Christ. You have the power of the cross, the power...
Join In The Symphony
Praise Him, sun and moon; praise Him, all you twinkling stars! Praise Him, you highest heavens, and you waters above the heavens! Psalm 148:3-4 Everything that God made bears witness to His majesty, sovereignty, and magnificence. He hung the stars, and they, too, sing...
Good And Evil
So I find this law at work: Although I want to do good, evil is right there with me. Romans 7:21 NIV There are two truths to keep in mind. The first is that Satan was overcome on the cross. Jesus has won the victory. Secondly, the snake still wriggles and still has...
Abide
Trust in the LORD with all your heart, and do not lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge Him, and He will make straight your paths. Proverbs 3:5-6 ESV It is a common desire to want to know what God is doing with your life and what tomorrow holds....
Another Selah Moment
God's love is perfect. It is undefeatable and unfailing. It has never lost an inch of ground, never taken a step back in shock or surprise. It has never turned away from you, never given up on you, and never stopped pursuing you. Adapted, Grace and Glory, Louie Giglio
Lent
Lent is like a long retreat during which we can turn back into ourselves and listen to the voice of God in order to overcome the temptations of the Evil One and to find the truth of our existence. It is a time of spiritual combat which we experience alongside Jesus,...
Belief
When men choose not to believe in God, they do not thereafter believe in nothing, they then become capable of believing in anything. (Note 1) Note 1: This quote is very often attributed to G. K. Chesterton (1874 - 1936). Chesterton was a Believer, and a prolific...
The Christian Battle Plan
Prayer is not a back-up plan. Prayer is the battle plan.
Humble Service
