620) If a home is built on a faulty foundation, who would be interested in buying it? Yet, sometimes it’s hard to evaluate because it’s often hidden underneath the rest of the house. In Matthew 7:24-27, Jesus said that the wise build on a rock foundation and the unwise on the one made of sand.

I Am a Murderer

619)I wonder if anyone has considered the fact that, according to Jesus’ words in Matthew 5:21-22, we’re all murderers. If we’ve ever thought or felt like killing someone, it is murder. We can murder someone when we’re angry at them, after all, what is the emotion behind murder? We can destroy peoples’ spirit with the

They Sure Are Blessed!

618) It’s easy to think that those who have been given much on this earth are blessed. I think this can be true but sometimes we mistake wealth, power, knowledge and talent as God’s sign the He is rewarding such people. Again, this can be true but, Matthew 5:3-10 tells us specific things we can

Now or Later

617) We now live in a culture that embraces the “right now” mentality. If you don’t immediately text, call or receive something you ordered, many get irritated or even angry. Much of what God instructs us to do have a greater outcome in the long run than in the short. Jesus said to give now

The Combat Zone of Grace

558)  2 Corinthians 12:9 tells us that God’s grace is sufficient. Reading that, I think: OK. Got that! What I had not done is look up the Greek word used here for sufficient. It means to defend or ward off. What I understand this to mean is that if I live under God’s grace, this
