Important Things
Sometimes God shows you things, important things. I could say a million things, but all I can say that really matters is that I’ll never forget their eyes. I always tell people one of the best and most meaningful reasons to travel the world is to see Jesus in the eyes of other people.
duck bottom
Like a duck with his tail in the air, plunge the bill of your faith in Jesus deep into the water and feed on the goodness that God gives to those who trust in Him.
Bear One Another’s Burdens
I would encourage you today to focus on getting up underneath the problems of others, to bear one another’s burdens, and watch God be glorified through such work. We’ll fulfill the law of Christ as His children if we will carry it all together. It’s part of why the Church exists.
When Did We See You
Jesus came to lift others up so that they would see and know God. In the midst of genuine ministry people’s hearts are oriented in such away that grace breaks through darkness. God shows up to the funeral called “life” and signs His name. Then, when we see the name of love and grace, our hearts are warmed amidst the chill of trial.
Hold It Up to the Light
When things get tough and all seems dark, hold it up to the light. Watch the light of God stream through the black of your night. Your problems and troubles are not solid stones, but rather smokey glass that just need a little light behind them. The light is there, just hold it up.
Reflecting the Glory
Just as Mary Ann reflected the glory of the Lord in her life, so we, too, are to fade into the background so that Jesus may take center stage.
Do Not Be Anxious
“Do not be anxious” is an easy command to follow when you are focused on rejoicing in Christ.
More Than Conquerors
Amidst the war of sin within you, that seeks to cause rot and decay in your relationship with God, there is still life and material for God to use. We are more than conquerors through Jesus Christ!
The Shadow Of The Cross
Be reminded today that the shadow of the cross looms over sin and death, reminding us that their hold on us is useless because of the victory of Jesus!
