christian gratitude jesus
Another way Christ affects us is by inspiring our gratitude. He left the glories of heaven in order to become our Savior, and when we recognize that sacrifice, we are filled with thankfulness and praise.
jesus jesus-christ christ
Jesus is our Advocate before God.
christian jesus father
When friends abandoned him, Paul asked God not to count their actions against them. He followed the example of Jesus, who prayed for the Father to forgive His persecutors. What's your response when friends let you down? Forgiveness is the choice that pleases God every time.
jesus children christian-inspirational
The moment someone chooses to trust in Jesus Christ, his sins are wiped away, and he is adopted into God's family. That individual is set apart as a child of God, with a sacred purpose.
christian powerful character
Temptation can be defined as an inducement to do evil. Three powerful forces work together to ruin a believer's character and witness: Satan, the world system, and our own lustful "flesh" tendencies.
christian biblical thinking
I think a lot of people, even Christians, are willing to be satisfied with gaining lots and lots of biblical knowledge - and many people go to Bible studies and don't realize it isn't enough to know what's right, it's applying the information and the knowledge that you have.
god christian doubt
God wants to cast out the fear and doubt in your life. Go before Him right now and say, "Lord, this is what I am afraid of ..."
christian adversity christian-inspirational
There is nothing worse than a life filled with adversity from which nothing good ever comes.
christian-inspirational want faces
If we rationalize our problems when He points them out, we will spend less and less time meditating because we won't want to face God in that area of our lives.
god prayer christian-inspirational
We are either in the process of resisting God's truth or in the process of being shaped and molded by his truth.
christian spiritual fighting
A Christian has no right being in a fight unless it's a spiritual fight.
christian christian-inspirational viewpoints
Wisdom is the capacity to see things from God's viewpoint.
christian commitment long
Too many Christians have a commitment of convenience. They'll stay faithful as long as it's safe and doesn't involve risk, rejection, or criticism. Instead of standing alone in the face of challenge or temptation, they check to see which way their friends are going.
christian character intimate-relationships
All of us have areas of weakness. God wants these character flaws to show us how totally dependent we are upon Him. When we handle them properly, they drive us into a deeper, more intimate relationship with the Lord. But uncontrolled weakness wreaks havoc in a person's life.
