Looks Can Be Deceiving

86)  Life can seem out of control & can give the feeling of hopelessness, at times but looks can be deceiving. No matter how bad it looks, God gives strength. He urges us to do the difficult things because we are not doing them on our own power. It’s all about Him. Hab 3:17-19

Faith is Not a Feeling

85) Some think faith is a feeling but it is not. It is the mental assurance that the object of your faith will keep his/her word. You can relax because they are dependable. Only God can always keep His promises. Stand on this, even when your feelings say otherwise. Hab 2:4

How Long, O Lord?

84) Watching the news these days is distressing. From murder, abuse, natural disasters, degrading words and more. It makes me lament Habakkuk’s prayer: How Long, O Lord? When will You act? God’s reply, Watch and see. John said it best, “Even so, come Lord Jesus.” Rev 22:20 Hab 1:2-3,5

Is God Good?

83) When we ask, Why God? We are often thinking, is God good? God is our refuge when difficulties come our way. He IS good, even if “good” hurts in the immediate. He cares about you, always. Nahum 1:7

Drowned at Sea

82)  God promises us that in his compassion and love, He’ll hurl our sins into the sea. Why do we go diving, trying to bring them back up? God has buried them; drowned them at sea. Leave them there. Micah 7:19

The Gift of Mercy

79) Mercy is not getting a punishment we deserve. Daniel reminds us that we can come to God with our requests not because of our righteousness (you know, those filthy rags?) but because of His mercy. It’s a gift, not an obligation. Daniel 9:18

I’m Not Who I Was

78) Looking back on my life, I cringe. Not for long when I remind myself that I’m not who I was. God has given me a new heart & a new spirit. He’s given them to you, too, if your name is in the Book of Life.  Ez 36:26; John 3:16; Rev. 20:15

Redemption! An Expensive Word

77) God is in the redemption business. He wants to redeem all people, no matter what they have done. It’s His gift through His Son. No gift is yours until you accept it. Thank God for His redemption; it cost Him Jesus’ life.  Ezekiel 33:11 John 3:16

God Takes No Pleasure in Our Pain

76)  For some, it is satisfying to see someone who has wronged you be given their “just deserts.” God NEVER takes pleasures in our pain or death; even when we brought it on ourselves. He loves us and wants us to do the right things. Ez 18:32

Forgive and Forget?

72) As Christians, we are commanded to forgive. This difficult task is even harder because we do not have the ability to forget on demand. God does not forgive on demand either; He chooses to forgive & remembers our sin no more. Rejoice!  Jer 31:34
