morning yesterday what-if
What if you woke up this morning and had only the things you thanked God for yesterday?
friday jesus decision
On the eve of the cross, Jesus made his decision. He would rather go to hell for you than go to heaven without you.
country writing boys
I noticed people would read these short articles I was assigned to write for our church bulletin and they would say, Boy, thats good stuff. I got letters from people around the country saying, Thats really good. And I thought, Is it really?
symphony made mona-lisa
Da Vinci painted one Mona Lisa. Beethoven composed one Fifth Symphony. And God made one version of you.
hope opportunity people
I choose joy... I will invite my God to be the God of circumstance. I will refuse the temptation to be cynical... the tool of the lazy thinker. I will refuse to see people as anything less than human beings, created by God. I will refuse to see any problem as anything less than an opportunity to see God.
people doe common
God does uncommon things through common people in common places.
christian people giving
God gives us people to love and things to use, not things to love and people to use.
inspirational children home
If anybody understands God's order for his children, it's someone who has rescued an orphan from despair, for that is what God has done for us. God has adopted you. God sought you, found you, signed the papers and took you home.
unique done christianity
Theres some inherently unique characteristics of Christianity, the chief of which is that Christianity teaches that we are saved by what Christ has done for us, instead of we are saved by what we do for God.
inspirational kindness boredom
Want to snatch a day from the manacles of boredom? Do overgenerous deeds, acts beyond reimbursement. Kindness without compensation. Do a deed for which you cannot be repaid.
god christian religious
Jesus tends to his people individually. He personally sees to our needs. We all receive Jesus' touch. We experience his care.
prayer home house
After a hard day scrambling to find your way around in the world, it's assuring to come home to a place you know. God can be equally familiar to you. With time you can learn where to go for nourishment, where to hide for protection , where to turn for guidance. Just as your earthly house is a place of refuge, so God's house is a place of peace.
christmas girl baby
He came, not as a flash of light or as an unapproachable conqueror, but as one whose first cries were heard by a peasant girl and a sleepy carpenter. God tapped humanity on its collective shoulder, "Pardon me," he said, and eternity interrupted time, divinity interrupted carnality, and heaven interrupted the earth in the form of a baby. Christianity was born in one big heavenly interruption.
writing kind backwards
I never told anybody I wanted to write, I kind of fell into it backwards.
