Big Picture, Small Steps
As Christians, we are called to live for the big picture. But the big picture is often made up of small steps.
What the Lord Knows
We often talk about the fact that God knows everything, but have you ever stopped to ponder the specific things God tells us that He knows?
An Uncluttered Heart
Does your heart ever feel cluttered? God has been teaching me recently about letting Him clear the clutter out.
The Lord is Good in Your Waiting
Lamentations 3:25 tells us that the Lord is good to those who wait and seek Him. This verse has been a comfort during many times of waiting over the years, but God recently used it to point out an incorrect assumption I was making about what the verse was saying about the goodness of God towards His waiting children.
Embracing Your Season
Seasons of life come and go, and it can be easy to get our eyes and our focus on the next season too early.
Wisdom from Above
Looking around, it is easy to see that envying, bitterness, and strife are prevalent. These follies are natural to fallen humanity, and yet, James 3:17 calls us to the wisdom of God, “wisdom that is from above.”
A Lesson on Prayer from Psalm 25
Prayer is just talking to God—but in difficult times, it’s easy to lose track of the purpose of our prayers. This week I was challenged by the focus of David’s prayer in Psalm 25, and the lesson it carries for us.
When God Says “Return”
No one likes to be stuck in a difficult situation. It is natural to want God to get us out of adversity. And yet, sometimes it is in the midst of those situations that God does His deepest work in us.
Faith and Failure
Peter said he would follow Jesus anywhere, even to death, but Jesus knew that wasn’t what would happen. And yet, Christ’s response to the knowledge of Peter’s failure is astounding.
