Looking for the Prize
Whether you’re in your 50s or 80s, please remember the race God has called you to run. What awaits you is far more valuable than anything you could possibly attain or receive during your life on this planet. Don’t quit running.

Insight for Today
Written by Chuck Swindoll, these encouraging devotional thoughts are published seven days per week.
The Pain of Resentment
Allowed to fester through neglect, the toxic waters of hatred foam to a boil within the steam room of the soul. Pressure mounts to a maddening magnitude. By then it’s only a matter of time. The damage is always tragic, often irreparable.
Open Minds, Open Hearts
What will it take for you to drop the rigid, accusing spirit you’ve fostered over all these years and allow God’s Spirit to transform you from within, making you more like Jesus?
A Haughty Self
Let His mind be in yours today—when you greet your children or address the employees who report to you, or as you move through the checkout line at the grocery store or talk to your server at the restaurant.
Things That Really Matter
Take time to review your list of what you keep investing in and clasping in your hands. When was the last time you prayerfully allowed the Lord to help you set priorities for the way you invest your time and resources? Trust me, there’s no time like the present.
Doing versus Being
We’re wise to take our life direction from the Lord rather than our high school classmates. How we do what we do matters so much more to the Lord than what we do.
Taking Time
As I pondered the impact of that moment I thought of the psalmist’s words in Psalm 46:10: “Be still, and know that I am God!”
The Case against Vanilla
Pursue the way of Jesus. Accept His approach and live your life with abandon. Don’t be afraid of a few risks. Turn your back on those attitudes and stubborn patterns that prevent you from living a full life.
Staying Alert
We quite naturally express our love for God through our emotions—easily offering praise with our words and with the affections of our hearts. But Jesus included the command to love Him with our minds, too.
Removing Sin
What does the Lord need to do to get you to turn away from that sin that has you in its grip? Stop and think for a moment how He is blessing you and caring for your needs, despite your stubborn determination to dishonour Him.
