Always

511) It’s easy to be thankful when life is good. What is not easy is to be thankful when we are in the midst of pain. Philippians 4:4 challenges us to be thankful always. If we look close enough, there is always something to rejoice about.

Not A Sprint But A Marathon

510) I get very impatient with myself, especially in the area of self-improvement. I long to be more patient, kind, gracious and more but it often seems that I have made little progress. Philippians 1:6 reminds me that God works on these things with me through His time. I don’t really need to know my

It’s a Gift

509) As God’s children, He has given us gifts/talents. How can you use a gift if you don’t know what it is? Find out and use it for Him. Ephesians 4:11

The Fullness of Time

508)  Remember when you were a child, trying to go to sleep on Christmas Eve? That night seemed like a year. In thinking about time, we often have a different timeline than God does. He is never in a hurry if it means a better result later. God acts in “the fullness of time.” Galatians

Daddy!

507) Galatians 4:6 states that God wants us to call Him “Abba,” a word translated into English as, “Daddy”. I am still amazed that the God of all the universe, as Someone who knows every dark thing about me, still wants me to call Him, Daddy. It’s humbling t0 meditate on this.

Restore or Repel

505) Galatians 6:1 tells us when there is a problem among God’s people, we need to speak to that person about it. However, it must be done gently and only after we have evaluated ourselves to make sure we are not doing the same thing. God wants to restore people to Him not repel them.

Masquerade

504) I was told by an authority of the U.S. Mint that when they train employees to recognize counterfeit money, they spend their time in training studying bills that are not counterfeit. They do this so when the employee handles a counterfeit bill, he/she knows it immediately. This is because he/she is so immersed in

Paradox

503) When Adam and Eve disobeyed the one rule God gave them, death was introduced into the world. As each day passes, we can feel this is true, especially in our own bodies. What is interesting about this fact is that as each day passes, God’s children are being renewed and coming more alive within.

Bribes or Gifts?

502) When I think of the subject of giving, I try and think about what is my motivation. Am I doing a kind thing because I want to be liked? Do I do it because I think it’s expected? Do I give so that I can please God? God is pleased with our gifts, not
