In all things perspective is everything in the evaluation of the world around us. Each person is good and bad, beautiful and ugly and the perspective with which we behold others will dictate how they are seen.

Choose any two people, anywhere in the world and you will find that while their life experiences are similar, accomplishment is usually dependent on the attitude of the individual. Great opportunities come and go but it is how we meet them that changes the outcome.

Life is difficult at times. Those seeking an easier way are usually shocked to find that there is a greater cost for ease than we are apt to want to pay. Nothing is ever truly free.

Every moment of every day is reason for thanksgiving, especially for the believer. Whether thankful for rescue from the jaws of disaster or for every breath, we have much for which we must be thankful.

Christ said that His followers are to be the light of the world, reflecting His Light. Darkness and light cannot share the same space for the light will disrupt and dispel darkness.

It takes a discerning eye to see beauty in the insignificant things of life. Stone or tax-collector; beauty can be found when looking through the eyes of Christ.

As many others have found, in his attempt to discredit the Bible, Lou Wallace discovered God and His plan for life.

The way in which we define things like “freedom” is telling, for freedom isn’t doing whatever it is we want. Freedom is an environment which enables and encourages choice to be captivated by service. The apostle Paul spoke of being a bond servant to Christ and in that bondage, he found true freedom.

We may hear others use the same terminology that is quite familiar and sound similar to that spoken in Christian circles, BUT, beware! Context can be helpful, focus is important, be sure we are well focused on the carpenter from Galilee.

It’s all too easy to miss the great opportunities that come our way, how many have you missed already? How many more will be had when sought after?

Little eyes are always watching; little hearts are constantly being imprinted. When we are pressed what is displayed to those littles? When jarred what is it that splashes out of us…Christ’s love or our own selfishness?

Being dreamers, our forefathers accomplished a huge undertaking. But the Apostles – they were dreamers beyond any and the world has never been the same since.

Stooping to embrace to Himself that, which by essence is not embraceable, Christ became what He was not to make us what we could, in ourselves, never be.

Amazing! The Creator provided what only He could, the only remedy for sin, His Son, our Christ. Yet He entrusted the Gospel, His good news about the remedy, to mere men.

Every moment of every day is reason for thanksgiving, especially for the believer. Whether thankful for rescue from the jaws of disaster or for every breath, we have much for which we must be thankful.

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?

He who is lowly, meek and poor is the richest man on earth because he who clings to Christ as the center of his life, lives from gratitude for what he has.

Being rich is more than money. Rich is love, heritage, friends and loved ones and Christ in whom all true riches are found.

Having few of the goods of this world doesn’t equate to being poor. Lack of money is not what defines richness or poverty, for anyone can have all the “riches” ever needed in life when loved and appreciated by others.

How would we judge He who cannot be judged? Many questions come to mind but ultimately, we come to the realization that God alone is The Judge and man will always come up short and in debt.
