There comes a point in the life of each person when they will decide to follow Christ or not. How will you choose if yours comes today?
Christ occasionally got away from His followers to be alone with The Father to rest and refresh. In His pattern we can find our physical and mental health.
This world is a sinful place. Self-absorbed people are everywhere and in desperate need of The Light of the World. In other words, the very thing we are called to be.
Anticipating life’s problems can be helpful in developing a game-plan but there is a fine line between preparation and fruitless angst.
Interesting thoughts about the life of Thomas Jefferson. Pride must be handled with proper control.
Getting ourselves out of the way – losing one’s self – is necessary in order to truly find ones’ purpose.
The historical relationship between President Abraham Lincoln and Edwin Stanton serves as a good reminder of Christ’s command to us in Luke.
A periodic self-check is a good thing to do. The “usual” isn’t to be taken for granted.
Lost items can be difficult to locate. Usually those items are found in front of our face but we miss them as we’re searching for them so feverishly.
How many stories like Johnny’s are repeated throughout our society? Is it any wonder that society has continually moved away from the things of God?
God is concerned about each person personally. He surprises us at times with the His nearness as He stoops to hear and help and save.
The account of Christ’s birth never gets old. Bethlehem was chosen for the honor of bringing forth the King of Kings into the world.
There is a law of seed, time of harvest. The golden rule tells us to do unto others as we would have them do unto us. If your harvest is bad it’s probably because you have sown bad seed.
The facts we choose to omit from any given situation may cause the people who are dependent on the information we give. Withholding our help when it’s within our power to be helpful causes the flaws in our character to become starkly visible.
Unfortunately, our deeds very often fail to reflect our words. We must live-out the words we so readily hold others to and do so with integrity. Otherwise our own words condemn us.
If we don’t spend time in God’s Word God’s ways will be foreign to us, making us no better than fools.
Those who take their responsibilities seriously know the meaning of duty. It’s a shame that more people don’t know the meaning of duty any longer.
The Bible says we are all sheep who have gone astray. When we live as a “lone sheep” we are at risk from the intent of the predators of this world and the enemy who roams looking for whom he may devour, but the way “home” is always available when we go to the cross.
Even the smallest sin will leave a scar on the soul of a person. While the sin is forgiven by our Heavenly Father, the scar or consequences of the sin often have to be dealt with.
We’ve always done it, this way”. The last words of a dying institution cannot hold up under the scrutiny of rational thought. Many traditions that we cherish so greatly are silly and will be seen as such when brought under the magnifying glass of truth.
