The Motivation Behind Anger

229)  We live in an angry world. Anger flairs its head in traffic, ball games and on our screens. 99% of the time, our anger does not bring others closer to God; it often does the opposite. Anger is an emotion we need to manage and not allow it a dictatorship. James 1:20

Spiritual Comradery

227) If you’re ever felt all alone, there is an antidote. In addition to God being with you, lean on fellow Christians. They are there to help support you. Not recognizing that you need others, regardless of the reason, is not God’s plan. Seek these people out. They are a gift from God. 1 John

On the Watch

225) Sometimes we feel a false sense of security when we see a life guard or locked door. It’s not that these things are bad but they depend of fallible people or things. God’s watch over us is not fallible, so our feelings of insecurity can be conquered. Have faith!   Psalm 121:7-8

Historic Examples

224) As a child, I loved learning in Sunday school about the people sprinkled throughout the Bible. Joshua 1:5-6 reminds us that God wants us to learn from their examples – good and bad.

Limited Sight; Eternal Promise

217)  We have limited sight. We cannot see many things that are present around us. The same is true on the spiritual level. Ps 46:1-3 promises that no matter how bad things are all around us, God is present and ready to help! Ask.

The Lion is Not Sleeping

216) If a lion were asleep nearby, would you walk by it? Most would take a wide detour. In light of this, why do we sometimes play games with Satan, the roaring lion and treat and react to him like he’s not so bad. He wants to devour you! Beware!  James 5:8

The Sky is NOT the Limit

215)  Sometimes I think it’s easier to take God at His word when a child. Matt 19:26 tells us NOTHING is impossible with God. Sometimes we ask God for things and then don’t believe He can or will do them. The sky is NOT the limit for God.

The Law of the Seed

208) If you plant corn, you will grow corn. If you plant doing the right thing; you will benefit from this. Doing the right thing isn’t always easy but God promises the harvest of “right” is worth it!  Gal 6:9
