Halloween
Christians should participate in Halloween, if only to bring light into the darkness. On this day where death and horror are used for decorating, we can share our lives with others. . .
In God We Trust
The meaning of wealth changes all the time. You cannot trust it. Instead, put your trust in God. God does not shift in value. . .
God Is Your Portion
If you are facing your own “flood” in life—unemployment, loss, disappointment, or depression—God is your portion. Your joy is found in Him, not your circumstances. . .
Pray for Transformation
When you think of people who seem too far from God, don’t rule them out but boldly pray for transformation—that they will witness firsthand the beautiful reach of God’s mercy. . .
Nothing Is Wasted
Nothing is wasted, not your victories and hard work, your sins or pain or attacks from others. He fashions every part of your life for your good and His glory. . .
Endurance in Trials
Endurance in trials comes not from an immediate alleviation of your circumstances but the expectation that you will see the character of the One who holds you fast. . .
Lament
As tempting as it is to put on a brave front and swallow your pain, don’t withhold your lament from the Lord. . .
What the Lord Has Planned
If God has something for you to do, what’s going to stop you? No one and nothing can stop what the Lord has planned for you to do to glorify Him. . .
The Light of the Lord
Though you are used to the changeability of everything on this earth, the light of the Lord does not fade, and what a promise that is!
He’s Here
Maybe pain is running rampant in your life or you are looking at what’s happening in the world and wondering where God even is. But He’s here, and He’s powerful. . .
