Good morning everyone, Corinthians 4:3-4 3 But with me it is a very small thing that I should be judged by you or by any human court. In fact, I do not even judge myself. 4 I am not aware of anything against myself, but I am not thereby acquitted. It is the Lord who […]
One of the ways I know I’m growing in Christ is by having my perspective change on what is being blessed. As most Americans, I used to think that being blessed means to have enough wealth (not exceeding wealth, for that will lead us to greed), a college education in the top 20 university, live […]
Good Morning everyone Isaiah 55:9-11 9 For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways and my thoughts than your thoughts. 10 “For as the rain and the snow come down from heaven and do not return there but water the earth, making it bring forth and […]
Good Monday to you all! My body is so sore from softball yesterday! I hate getting old! Being agile and fast on the field is a distant memory. I want a new body! Thanks be to God, I will get a new body one day! What do you hate? As a Christian, I’ve always been […]
I find it surprising that the Bible tells us to overcome the world. Revelation 2:7, “To him who overcomes, I will give the right to eat from the tree of life, which is in the paradise of God.” “Wait, I thought Christ already overcame the world and sin. Therefore, all we have to do is […]
Good morning everyone, 1 Corinthians 13:2– And if I have prophetic powers, and understand all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have all faith, so as to remove mountains, but have not love, I am nothing. 1 Peter 4:8-Above all, keep loving one another earnestly, since love covers a multitude of sins. This past […]
Certain biblical teachings are so non-intuitive! They even seem downright contradictory. No wonder we have such a hard time getting them! For example, true happiness is gained when we give up on being happy. Peace comes when we give up the control of our lives, rather than being in total control. Joy is present not […]
Do you ever get tired of life? You get the impulse to leave the world and be somewhere other than here? Of course as Christians, we are looking for our permanent home in heaven, but sometimes simply a different place will do. That’s why we dream of going on a vacation – just like I’m […]
Good morning everyone, Hebrews 10:24-25-And let us consider how to stir up one another to love and good works, 25 not neglecting to meet together, as is the habit of some, but encouraging one another, and all the more as you see the Day drawing near. One of the greatest lessons and encouragements that I had to come to learn […]
Hi, guys, I’m still reading through the book of Romans these days. I can’t wait to hear from you guys and learn from what God is teaching you these days. Maybe in another week or so, I’d like you to take turns each day sharing what you are gleaning from your daily devotions. Until then, Eldie and […]
