Facing trouble today? Maybe a long struggle with uncertainty, or confronting a seemingly impossible obstacle in your life? The Spirit is at work, forming patience in you. Don’t resist it...embrace it! Let Him lengthen your temper. You can’t, but He can.
It’s one thing to stand firm in major issues clearly set forth in Scripture. It’s another thing to pick fights over tiny jots and meaningless tittles.
The highs and lows of our lives are usually triggered by surprises. Within split seconds we are sobbing or laughing like crazy.
I know another One who promised He would return. He, too, will keep His word. In fact, He’s never broken one promise. There’s no credibility gap with Him. Count on it: He will return!
There can be a shortage of spiritual nourishment in our lives—in our marriages, our homes. A regular diet of the unadulterated truth of God is a rare experience.
Turn to the Lord today and commit your time, gifts, affections, and investments to Him. Make certain His name is made known and His grace transferred through your brief, but meaningful years on earth.
What’s James’ point? Nobody’s perfect...making mistakes, or stumbling, is a normal fact of life. More specifically, when it comes to the tongue, we often blow it!
We must be careful how we live, examine our hearts, and allow the Spirit of God freedom to roam the inner chambers of our motives.
Notice the wide highway that leads to hell. Highway speed is often breakneck. But the road to heaven and God’s blessing is narrow and more difficult to navigate, yet leads to life. A narrow road requires a much slower and more careful pace.
A teardrop on earth summons the King of Heaven. Rather than being ashamed or disappointed, the Lord takes note when our hard times are oiled by tears.
