Gods given us all strengths and gifts.
thinking-of-you morning sunday
HEAVEN knows the difference between SUNDAY morning and WEDNESDAY afternoon. God longs to speak as CLEARLY in the workplace as He does in the sanctuary. He longs to be WORSHIPED when we sit at the dinner table and not just when we come to His communion table. You may go days without THINKING of Him, but there's never a moment when He's not thinking of YOU.
kindness skills challenges
You present a challenge to Satan's plan. You carry something of God within you, something noble and holy, something the world needs - wisdom, kindness, mercy, skill. If Satan can neutralize you, he can mute your influence.
love-you divorce lovely
God loves you simply because He has chosen to do so. He loves you when you don't feel lovely. He loves you when no one else loves you. Others may abandon you, divorce you, and ignore you, but God will love you always. No matter what!
christian teaching grace
What I try to do is narrow the sermon series down to one big question. In this case the question is: What happens when grace happens? I knew I wanted to preach about grace. I just felt as if it was time for our church to be refreshed and see the beauty of God's grace - the uniqueness of the Christian grace as compared to the teachings of other world religions on forgiveness.
conviction this-life god-knows
Faith is the conviction that God knows more than we do about this life and He will get us through it.
optimism insecurity doubt
Sow seeds of hope and enjoy optimism. Sow seeds of doubt and expect insecurity
inspire talent neighbor
If you concern yourself with your neighbor’s talents, you’ll neglect your own. But if you concern yourself with yours, you could inspire both!
writing people singing
If you get a lot of good feedback from people, thats a sign that you have a strength or gift in writing, if not ... try singing.
God is near whether you sense His presence or not.
organization government mind
God created marriage. No government subcommittee envisioned it. No social organization developed it. Marriage was conceived and born in the mind of God.
life-changing hands kind
God is kind, but he is not soft. He takes us firmly by the hand and leads us into a radical life change.
thinking style trying
I have some friends whose sermons are extremely practical - so practical that I can put them right to use. I'm trying to learn how to do that better; but I don't think my approach or style really has changed in these 30 years. Whether that's good or bad I don't know, but I don't think it has.
