    Hope from Tragedy

    "But he knows where I am going. And when he tests me, I will come out as pure as gold. Job 23:10 NLT Job was a good man who loved and honored God but was allowed by his Creator to be subjected to the worst losses a man can imagine: his children, the works of his hands, his health, and his...

    The Difference

    And some of you used to be like this. But you were washed, you were sanctified, you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and by the Spirit of our God. 1 Corinthians 6:11 CSB We are not what we used to be, and Jesus is the reason why. In Him, we are new creations—no longer...

    Redirecting Pain

    "I have heard all this before. What miserable comforters you are! ...I could say the same things if you were in my place. I could spout off criticism and shake my head at you. But if it were me, I would encourage you. I would try to take away your grief. Job 16:2, 4-5 NLT Sometimes, nothing...

    Devotion

    It's Valentine's Day! And with all the buzz of romantic gestures and heart-shaped confetti. Let us take a moment to reflect on a profound quote by Mother Teresa, "Spread love everywhere you go. Let no one ever come to you without leaving happier," in the spirit of this beautiful sentiment and...

    The Mood Mender

    Today's Scripture & Insight: Psalm 94:2 As I waited at the train station for my weekly commute, negative thoughts crowded my mind like commuters lining up to board a train—stress over debt, unkind remarks said to me, helplessness in the face of a recent injustice done to a family member. By...

    Good Things

    He who finds a wife finds a good thing, and obtains favor from the Lord. Proverbs 18:22 God specializes in good things. Moses told the Israelites, “So you shall rejoice in every good thing which the Lord your God has given to you and your house” (Deuteronomy 26:11). Joshua told them, “Not a...

    Leaving Justice to God

    There is definitely a tension when it comes to forgiving others who have wronged you. In some cases, the other person won’t want peace. Instead, they will elevate conflict... and if there isn’t any conflict, they will try to create it. For others, you may be saying, “That person does not need...

    Dangerous Distractions

    Your love for one another will prove to the world that you are my disciples. John 13:35 nlt Artist Sigismund Goetze shocked Victorian-era England with a painting entitled “Despised and Rejected of Men.” In it, he portrayed the suffering, condemned Jesus surrounded by people of Goetze’s own...

    What Does God Want for Us?

    We have established our anchor in the truth that God is our true source of rest. Even as we do this, though, we find ourselves wondering how this applies to our lives here on earth. With increasingly busy schedules, family responsibilities, and work obligations always present, we want to know...

    Obstructions to Change

    Some people want the fruit of change - like a better marriage, freedom from debt or some other benefit - but they don’t want the discipline of change. So, when nothing changes in their life they blame God. But the truth is that change requires something of us. Although we are changed by the...

    Broken And Poured Out

    You know what doesn’t make a whole lot of sense? Asking to be broken. You know what else doesn’t make sense? A perfect God giving up his innocent Son in exchange for greater closeness to a ragged bunch of sinners like us. So why do we pray this dangerous “break me” prayer? Because it’s the only...

    Dangerous Prayers: Is He Safe? No, But He’s Good.

    Driving a motorcycle with no helmet or headlight on a two-lane highway through the mountains in a snowstorm at night. That’s dangerous. Asking a woman her age. That’s dangerous. But praying? How is praying dangerous? Isn’t praying what sweet grandmas do in the safety of their living rooms? What...

    Are Your Circuits Too Busy?

    You can’t hear God if your mind is crowded with other thoughts or concerns — particularly worries, plans, and activities. If you’re always listening to the radio or the TV, when God calls you, the circuits are going to be busy. You’ve got to eliminate the distractions. Jesus says in Luke 8:7...
