Insight for Today
Written by Chuck Swindoll, these encouraging devotional thoughts are published seven days per week.
Commitment
People of excellence are those who see through the clutching greed of our times—people who have declared their undivided allegiance to Christ's message, people who have humbled themselves to Christ's sovereign authority.
Optimism
Vision is the ability to see God's presence, to perceive God's power, to focus on God's plan in spite of the obstacles.
Flexibility
Are you open to change? People who make a difference can be stretched, pulled, pushed, and changed. You heard it from me: traditionalism is an old dragon, bad about squeezing the very life out of its victims. So never stop fighting it. Let's be careful to identify the right opponent. It isn't tradition per se; it's traditionalism.
Integrity
Just remember: Whatever is in first place, if it isn't Christ alone, it is in the wrong place.
Ethics
We need heroes. I mean genuine heroes, authentic men and women who are admired for their achievements, noble qualities, and courage. Such people aren't afraid to be different. They risk. They stand a cut above. Yet they are real human beings with flaws and failures like anyone else. But they inspire us to do better.
Priorities
Life is a lot like a coin; you can spend it any way you wish, but you can spend it only once. Choosing one thing over all the rest throughout life is a difficult thing to do. This is especially true when the choices are so many and the possibilities are so close.
Two Things God Remembers about His Servants
No one on earth can do those special things. We forget, but God remembers. We see the action; God sees the motive. This qualifies Him as the best record keeper and judge.
Three Promises Regarding Our Faithfulness
In several places through the New Testament, there are statements of promise from God to faithful servants.
The Rewards of Serving
Serving God by serving others definitely has rewards, and they are numerous. They far outweigh the consequences. When we think about them, they motivate us to keep going.
