The Source

1851) The other day, something happened, and it left me very irritated. Unfortunately, my irritation flew out of my mouth at the closest target, which was my husband. Fortunately, my husband is one who doesn’t react this way, and he asked me a question that has stayed with me. He asked, are you really upset about

Peaceful Confirmation

1849) There have been many times when I have faced a decision and I wasn’t sure what I needed to do. In such times, I’ve learned to rely on John 14:27. Here Jesus promises peace. There is a peace that fills your soul when you ask God to direct and you decide to follow his lead.

Look for Yourself

1850) I was watching an interview the other day, and those involved in the discussion were saying how important it is to not elevate one person above others, especially when that person does not have accountability, like a board of directors. In my observations through the years, I agree. Acts 17:11 emphasizes the importance of examining

What Peace Demands

1848) When we read verses like John 16:33, it may be easy just to read on through to the next chapter of John. Perhaps it’s because it’s hard to reconcile what Jesus said with what we see and experience. John 16:33 says, (NLT) I have told you these things, so that in me you may have

From Death to Life

1847) There are times in our lives when circumstances of this world overwhelm us. These things can knock us off our feet and Satan considers this a time to come and strike.

Speech

1846) Speak up! What did you say? Please repeat that. These are things we might say in conversation on any day. We must communicate so we can function in the best way. When communicating, we need to remember Proverbs 18:21. It reads that the power of the tongue brings both death and life. Think back to

Genuine Friends

1845) Friendships are difficult for my young scholars. It isn’t unusual for one to come to me each week who is distraught because of something a friend did to them. I try to help each one understand there are different types of friends and it’s important to categorize them. There are friends you see every day

Meaningful

1844) When I was growing up, I always liked it when missionaries came to our church and spoke about their work. It was especially good when they brought slides to share and I could see visually what these men and women of God were doing for the Lord. I admire these people. Completely uprooting their families

The Silent Challenge

1843) There are many “challenges” online. These types of challenges are usually something outrageous. For example, one I saw was the challenge to breathe in and/or taste cayenne pepper. Would I do this? Uh. No. On the subject of challenges, I have one for myself and it’s not outrageous but very difficult to do. It’s found

Beware of Jealousy

1842) It’s been a long time since I was a teen, but I can remember the extremes in emotions. There is nothing more potent than loyalty, love, hate, and more at that age. Song of Solomon 8:6 informs us about two emotions, one of which some may think young people exclusively experience. They are love and
