husband expectations wife
Unmet expectations are tough when it's your wife or your husband, but it's really tough when it's God. And yet, it can be a time of growth and a time of faith, a time of understanding who God is.
prayer struggle answers
God is using my struggle. My struggle is the answer to the prayer.
people labels respectful
The Bible urges us to be respectful to all people, especially people with whom we have disagreements, to never libel people, to never label people.
decision christianity behavior
My concern is that somebody would make a decision against Christianity because of Mr. Trump's behavior.
thinking views people
Kind of the bottom line for me, I don't think people come to the church where I preach to hear my view on politics.
christian believe leader
I do believe that leaders have to be held to a higher standard, especially Christian leaders. I put myself in that camp.
differences office people
You want to make a difference in your world? Live a holy life: Be faithful to your spouse. Be the one at the office who refuses to cheat. Be the neighbor who acts neighbors. Be the employee who does the work and doesn't complain. Pay your bills. Do your part and enjoy life. Don't speak one message and live another. People are watching the way we act more than they are listening to what we say.
fear sunrise may
You may not be down to your final heartbeat, but you may be down to your last paycheck, solution, or thimble of faith. Each sunrise seems to bring fresh reasons for fear.
spiritual jesus heart
The idea of a spiritual heart transplant is a vivid image to me; once you have the heart of somebody else inside you, then that heart is there. Jesus' heart is inside me, and my heart is gone. So if God were to place a stethoscope against my chest, he would hear the heart of Jesus Christ beating.
missing
Seek beauty and miss love. But seek love and find both.
boys way earning
My first encounters with faith came about the time I was a Boy Scout, at about 14 or 15. I made the logical deduction that they operate the same way; I treated my faith like earning a merit badge, and everything about Christianity was about earning merit badges.
love christian empty
God's love supply is never empty.
pain next filters
Filter your pain through the brevity of this life and the unending beauty of the next.
christian jesus kings
When it comes to Christ, you've got to do the same. Call him crazy, or crown him as king. Dismiss him as a fraud, or declare him to be God. Walk away from him, or bow before him, but don't play games with him.
