The resolution to give more
As we read God’s promises in the Bible, we turn our prayers and actions toward what we can receive. That is not bad, but we must also remember that sometimes you have to be determined to give.
An invigorating source
You don’t need a degree in biology to understand that stagnant water doesn’t produce anything good. Bacteria multiply there, and so do odors! To be invigorating, water needs to be in motion. Just like our relationship with God.
Venite Adoremus
“Come let us adore him,” says the popular holiday song “Adestes Fideles” (O Come, All Ye Faithful). The wise men came to adore the new king. But what exactly is it to adore? It’s much more than singing beautiful songs.
A practice for heaven
The Bible doesn’t tell us much about heaven or what we will do during our eternity with God. But one thing is certain, we will always be in the Presence of God. Are you ready for this?
Remember your promises
“Remember your word to your servant, because you gave me hope” (Psalms 119:49 WEB). We love to remind God of all the promises He makes to us. But what about the promises WE make?
Infinitely more
The wait can seem long… so long that we wonder if God has forgotten us. But when we think it’s too late for our miracle, God surprises us with a solution that is more miraculous than we imagined!
An update on our love for Christ?
What has your devotional time been like lately? Do you spend loving times with Jesus or, if you find time to pray, is it out of obligation? Sometimes it’s good to stop and evaluate our hearts.
Enter into God's rest
We are solicited from all sides, so much so that we can forget to rest. Not only to rest our body but also our soul and our spirit. Yet God promises us that His rest is our strength.
Differentiate between feelings of guilt, shame, and condemnation
“There is no more condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus.” We hear this often in churches that preach grace. So when we feel guilty, should we refuse that feeling? Not necessarily!
Change for good
After a painful failure or a motivating sermon, we often decide to change this or that. But most of the time it doesn’t last. Why do our bad habits come back?
