Spending time with God and listening to and reading His Words is often all we need in this chaotic world.
Because of who Jesus is, praying in His name gives me faith to believe that God will hear and answer in a way that is completely right and in the right timing.
Faith stories make a difference. Let’s take advantage of their influence. Let’s stoke the fire of the next generation’s faith by recalling God’s goodness to us.
Four days ago I walked on the Great Wall of China. It’s an amazing feat of human engineering considering modern-day machinery and technology didn’t exist.
I believe it’s Henry Blackaby who says, “God is at work at all times and in all places.” I saw that yesterday while aboard our flight from Vancouver to Asia.
Asking God to guard us from problems may not get us the answer we want. If we pray according to His will, the answer will come in His time and in His way.
The driven person doubts whether his efforts have been sufficient whereas the drawn person senses the Father’s whisper, “Well done, good and faithful servant.”
This week’s ministry is all about building relationships, That happens when we share from our hearts. We remove the masks and be real, and friendships are born.
Sometimes fear hinders us from being intentional about showing love towards people of other cultures. But love speaks every language fluently.
Rest assured that, so long as our hearts are in right relationship with Him and we ask with right motives, He will listen to our requests.
Whatever daily life looks like, keep first things first. Enjoy your relationship with Jesus. Invite Him into the mundane and do everything as an act of worship.
How are you doing in the “giving thanks” department? I’m thankful for God’s instructing us to do it–He knows doing so keeps our perspective in the right space.
God isn’t interested in half-hearted or delayed obedience from His kids. He wants willing and immediate obedience from us.
It’s easy to feel anxious. But in the midst of it all, God plops Scriptures into my path to remind me I’m not dealing with this alone. I love when He does that.
Do you have a relationship with God? If so, that’s great! If not, keep reading. Having a relationship with Him is simple, really.
When we face moral decisions, we know God’s word will show us what to do. But when the decision is not of a moral nature, knowing His will isn’t always clear.
Are you facing a seemingly impossible situation? Consider it the perfect opportunity for God to do something big. He’s answered us and here are the specifics.
Sometimes it’s way too easy to grow complacent. The little boy’s excitement about E.T.’s revival puts my enthusiasm about my Savior’s resurrection to shame
We become so busy doing acts of service for Him that before long we don’t have time to grow our friendship with the One we’re serving.
I love when God answers prayer in ways that defy human explanation. At Heathrow, He made His presence undeniably obvious, and I’ll forever remember that moment.
God has equipped every believer with at least one motivational gift, and using that gift makes us most effective and brings the greatest personal fulfillment.
Joy isn’t something we can work up. Nor is it found in rosy circumstances. It comes from within, the natural overflow of an ever-growing friendship with Jesus.
Busyness consumes us, and we go on our own merry way without a second thought toward the Giver of every good and perfect gift.
Christ modeled unselfishness to the utmost degree. Because He’s our example, we’re to be unselfish. Mankind being what it is, however, we struggle with that.
Scripture says Satan is our enemy; he constantly prowls about seeking ways to destroy us. We find safety from his evil intent when we hide ourselves in Christ.
Today, as I pause to reflect on the freedoms I enjoy at others’ expense, I also say thanks to Jesus Christ for the sacrifice He made for mankind.
Sometimes the Lord surprises us with unexpected gifts. This week has been one of those for me. It was a sacred moment. A moment that awed me by God’s goodness.
I hold my month-old grandson and marvel at the wonder of little people and their complete dependence on others for everything.
Sometimes we run ahead of God’s timing, or try to manipulate our circumstances. Why? Because we doubt God’s ability to fulfill His purposes for us.
Giving thanks when life’s easy is well, easy. Doing it when life hurts is another thing. That’s when expressing gratitude is most important.
What difference does it make if Christ’s love controls us? For starters, the world would look much different. Let’s do our part in making change happen.
God is more than able to orchestrate the details of our lives. Do we trust Him?

God’s goodness in supply a wedding dress alteration specialist exactly when we needed one.
