The Empowering Emotion of Joy

The Empowering Emotion of Joy

JOHN 15:9-11

“As the Father hath loved me, so have I loved you: continue ye in my love. If ye keep my commandments, ye shall abide in my love, even as I have kept my Father’s commandments, and abide in his love”.

Do our lives exciting? Or do we, like so many people, find most days routine and tedious? Have dreams become disappointments? If so, we might feel tempted to give up hope. But God promises fulfillment that can't be found anywhere… Continue

Staying Young All Your Life

12 The righteous shall flourish like a palm tree, He shall grow like a cedar in Lebanon.

13 Those who are planted in the house of the LORD shall flourish in the courts of our God.

14 They shall still bear fruit in old age; they shall be fresh and flourishing,

15 To declare that the LORD is upright; He is my rock, and there is no unrighteousness in Him.

Psalm 92:12-15

Some people are old before their 40th birthday; others reach 90 and still… Continue

Love and Natural Order

Gods' love for mankind is revealed throughout the universe through the natural order of His creation, as well as in His own Word (the Bible). The natural laws everywhere around us exist because the universe has a Creator who is logical and has (since the beginning) imposed order on His universe. Even after the fall of man, in Genesis and up through today, God still makes order out of much of the disruption, chaos, and disorder as a result from sin. We not only have… Continue

We want God to change our circumstances, but God wants to use our circumstances to change us...

It can be easy to think that God is obligated to make life easy for us and to remove all of our difficult circumstances. But, the truth is that during hard times God is preparing us for greater things. If He removed the difficult circumstances in our lives, we would probably never mature.

James 1:2-4 says, "Consider it pure joy, my brothers, whenever you face trials of many kinds,…

Controlling the Tongue...

Learning to control the tongue is an important step in self-control.

The tongue--what a study in contrasts! To the physician it's merely a two-ounce slab of mucous membrane enclosing a complex array of muscles and nerves that enable our bodies to chew, taste, and swallow. How helpful! Equally significant, it is the major organ of communication that enables us to articulate distinct sounds so we can understand each other. How essential!

...But the tongue is as volatile as… Continue

The grace of God

God has given grace to you--an unconditional gift. Receive and accept it. Look for opportunities to be "graceful" to those around you.

Exodus 33:19 - And the LORD said, "I will cause all my goodness to pass in front of you, and I will proclaim my name, the LORD, in your presence. I will have mercy on whom I will have mercy, and I will have compassion on whom I will have compassion.

Proverbs 3:34 - He mocks proud mockers but gives grace to the humble.

Acts 4:33 -… Continue

Stumbling over the Cross ~ 1 Corinthians 1.18-25

STUMBLING OVER THE CROSS

For the story of the cross is foolishness to those who are on the way to destruction, but it is the power of God to those who are on the way to salvation. For it stands written: ‘I will wipe out the wisdom of the wise and I will bring to nothing the cleverness of the clever.’ Where is the wise? Where is the expert in the law? Where is the man who debates about this world’s wisdom? Did not God render foolish the wisdom of this world? For when, in God’s wisdom, the… Continue

"Obey your leaders and submit to them,

Let them do this with joy and not with groaning,

for that would be of no advantage to you."

A Reflection of Jesus

But be doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving yourselves. For if anyone is a hearer of the word and not a doer, he is like a man observing his natural face in a mirror; for he observes himself, goes away, and immediately forgets what kind of man he was. But he who looks into the perfect law of liberty and continues in it, and is not a forgetful hearer but a doer of the work, this one will be blessed in what he does James 1:22-25

Close your eyes for a… Continue

God's absolute love for YOU!

God loves you with the same love He loved His own Son, Jesus. Think about that for a minute. DOesn't it send shivers up your spine? God loves you. And it isn't a bearly-tolerate-you-because-I-have-to love, but a completely over-the-top, can't-get-enough-of-you kind of love. Amazing? Yes. Unbelievable? Definitely. True? Absolutely!

Pride Begets Fear (a conversation with God)

Once again, I find myself battling pride. It’s funny though, how this little enemy can hide itself. Meaning, one usually expects pride’s presentation to illustrate something completely different from what it sometimes does. Certainly, recognizing fear as a byproduct of pride is no easy task. For instance, one might think that he or she stands victim solely to fear--which predictably leads to anxiety, which then of course indicates a need to rebuke or overcome fearful thoughts and emotions--when… Continue

Religion...is it or isn't it?

(To dream that you are in a church, suggests that you are seeking for some spiritual enlightenment and guidance. You are looking to be uplifted in some way. Perhaps you have made some mistakes in the past which have set you back on your path toward your goals. With proper support, you will get on the right track again. Alternatively, it may also mean that you are questioning and debating your life path and where it is leading. You are reevaluating what you want to do).

No divisions among you ~ 1 Corinthians 1.10-17

NO DIVISIONS AMONG YOU.

Brothers, I urge you through the name of our Lord Jesus Christ that you should make up your differences and that you should see to it that there may be no divisions among you, but that you should be knit together in the same mind and the same opinion. Brothers, it has become all too clear to me, from information that I have received from members of Chloe’s household, that there are outbreaks of strife among you. What I mean is this – each of you is saying: ‘I… Continue

Great Post

I see you, I hear you, I feel for you.

You have expressed things well.

Corinthians was my own start, those verses are so completely true. Love never is a lever for anything. Love is pure.
Love has no victims. True love has no enemies, True love has no fear, True love is god. In love and in God.
