The Difficulty of Waiting

Status is Overrated

237) We are often drawn to people that are like us. Similar goals, education, and status. If all we do is connect with these, we would be losing out. Reach out to those outside your typical circle. They have a lot to offer and you do, too. Romans 12:16

The Power of Gentleness

236)  So much of what we hear, see & sometimes even say, are at the opposite end of gentleness. I picture myself standing at the airline agent’s desk, trying to get rescheduled for a connecting flight I missed b/c they arrived late. Anyone can fly off the handle but God wants his people to treat

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.
