What God Knows

480) When I was little, I remember thinking, “Why pray? God already knows what I’m thinking?” This is true and yet; God wants a relationship with us. The reason this can happen is because God has forgiven us, even as we don’t think about our bad daily choices. That is forgiveness.  Luke 23:34

Don’t Mess with Me!

479)  Luke 10:16 tells us that God “has our backs.” If people mess with us, God considers it messing with Him. Even when circumstances don’t reveal it, God will always be on our side. Count on it.

It’s All in a Name

What is Mercy?

474)  Mercy is a gift we can give others. It is the decision to let someone who has wronged us off the hook. A wrong was done & no penalty is given. God is merciful with us so how can we not be with others? Luke 6:36

Being Heard

473)  I believe there is a difference between listening and hearing. It’s so important to know we’ve been heard. Luke 11:28 tells us that God’s people need to hear Him and then, obey Him. This hearing is a two-way street. Hear, hear!

Leaving is Only the First Step

472)  Luke 5:11 tells us that Jesus’ disciples left everything when called by Him. They did something else, too; they left and followed Him. Giving up things for God is only the first step – we must follow Him, too. This is making the decision to let God call the shots and not us.
