Pride is Our Undoing

When things are going well in life, we can feel self confident about our success. The risk is that we become filled with pride, losing sight of how God equips and blesses us; forgetting that all we have is because God grants it to us. In 2 Chronicles 26:16-22, King Uziah has had much success. […]

Prayer Journey

Keep me focused on you dear God. Don’t let the distractions of this world draw my attention away from you. Help me not to fear those who seek to do me harm.

Together for Good

And we know that God causes all things to work together for good to those who love God, to those who are called according to His purpose. – Romans 8:28. (NASB) “What good can come from this?” It is a phrase I have found myself saying many times in my life. Sometimes it goes along […]

Perishable to Imperishable

Some days I really feel the word perishable that Paul uses in 1 Corinthians 15:50-58. I feel my body wearing out, fatigue after a long day and see the aging process become more apparent when I gaze in the mirror. It can be discouraging not to be able to physically do what I once did […]

There are times in our life when God places us with someone for a specific reason to share our knowledge of Jesus. In Acts 8:26-40, Phillip is instructed by the Lord to, “Get up and go south to the road that descends from Jerusalem to Gaza (verse 26, NASB).” On the road he encounters “an […]

God’s Faith in Abilities We Don’t See in Ourself
