God is Wise

"God is wise in heart and mighty in strenght." - Job 9: 4

A little boy once boasted to his neighbor, "My father is eight feet tall!" What did he mean? Was the dad really a giant? No, of course not. His statement was just a child's way of saying that when he was with his dad, he felt that nothing could harm him. He felt safe.
In the same way, you can feel safe with God, not only because he is strong but also because he is trustworthy. God is more than the biggest kid on the block. God is more than the brilliant architect of the universe. The wisdom by which God rules comes from his heart of love. You can look up and know that he cares

Be a Light in a Dark World

"By this shall all know that you are My disciples, if you love one another." John 13:35



You have the opportunity every day to show Jesus to the world. You do that by walking in His love – the love of the Father that was first revealed and expressed in His Son Jesus and is now manifested in you. The world is looking for something real, something tangible. They are looking for love, and God is the source of all love. According to 2 Corinthians 5: 20 you are Christ’s ambassador, His personal representative. God is making His appeal to the world through you. Do people sense you love and care about them? Does the way you live your life make them desire to have a relationship with God? Be a light in the dark places of the world.

Enjoy Your Life Now

"I came that they may have and enjoy life, and have it in abundance (to the full, till it overflows)." John 10: 10


Life is a journey - a process of advancement and progression. And as you move toward the future, you must be careful not to lose sight of the now and the enjoyment it can bring you. For many years I was a Christian but not enjoying life. Then God taught me that enjoying life is not based on enjoyable circumstances. It is an attitude of the heart. When I decided to change my approach to some of the circumstances I faced in life, it made a remarkable difference! As a believer you have available to you the abundant quality of life that comes from God. Don't get so caught up in your busyness that you fail to enjoy the pleasures God provide every day. He has given you abundant life and your goal should be to enjoy it to the fullest.
