Do you desire the GIFTS or the GIVER? What circumstances in life could destroy your faith? Loss of wealth? Death of loved ones? Poor health? Being persecuted?

 The book of Job is about faith. It is the story of a man chosen to experience a devastating trial of his faith. The author of Job gives us a glimpse behind the scenes. We, as readers, are entrusted with information hidden from the actors. They must play their roles in this story without insight that could radically…

    Language influences behavior and self-perception. Your perspective, and how you choose to respond, and how you talk and think, shape your life. Proverbs 4:23 affirms, “Above all else, guard your heart with all diligence, for from it spring the issues of life.” With life’s ordeals, we can feel burdened by what is taking place all around us in our homes and our society, being rigidly influenced by it. Proverbs 18:21 expresses, “Death and life are in the power of the tongue, and those who love it will eat its fruit.” How you talk influences your life and the lives…

Perhaps the struggling swimmer thought that he was just slower than the rest, not as good, didn’t measure up. More likely, he just didn’t think about his struggle at all, accepted his difficulty with quiet resignation, never to be good enough, always slower than his brothers.

    The first thing that comes to mind when you think about Jesus and His enemies is, why would He have any enemies?  All He did was go about doing good by healing the sick, making the blind to see, raising the dead to life, casting out demons, feeding the hungry, and restoring the strength of the crippled to walk again.  He also spoke of a place He was preparing that was forever free from pain, sorrow, death, hunger, evil, disease, decay, thirst, darkness, and fear.  Why would anybody say, “well that’s not for me?”  How could anybody in their…

According to God’s Will

When we make plans apart from seeking God’s will, we are guilty of arrogance. Such boasting is called evil (Jas 4:13-17). That may not seem like evil to us, but it is. Why? Because that is the attitude at the foundation of all evil.

We usually think of evil in terms of various moral transgressions, but the…
