Inspiration

We are made clean by Jesus, forgiven through His death. And though we are no longer bound by the trappings of ritual and regulation, God calls us to use our freedom wisely. Let us be mindful of our impact on others, and not let our choices and actions become a distraction or an impediment to those who are still lost.

Inspiration

Constrained by time, we see and experience what is now. We no longer feel what once was, and we do not yet see what will be. We were made for eternity, but sometimes time blinds us to the fullness of God’s beauty. Yet God promises beauty in its time, even if it’s not in the moment that we observe now.

Inspiration

When Jesus gives us instructions, do we willingly obey, or do we try to negotiate? Do we want to love all of our neighbors, or do we try to select just the ones that are easy to love? We must guard against trying to bend Jesus’ words to fit our will. Instead, we must hear all of His words- even the ones that challenge us- so that we can be prepared to walk in full obedience to Him.

Inspiration

God has a plan for us. And sometimes, His plans are different from ours. Even the good things that we want to do may interfere with doing the better things that He has in mind for us. We must keep watching and listening for His instruction. And when we encounter obstacles, we must seek Him in prayer for further direction.

Prayer

Lord, sometimes Your words are difficult to believe. Sometimes Your presence seems to elude me. Sometimes, I have questions and need answers. Please speak to me in my moments of doubt, give me sight where I need sight, wisdom where I need wisdom. Help me to trust in You as You lead me through and beyond my doubts. In Jesus’ name, amen.

Inspiration

God knows what is best for us. He calls us to repentance because it is good for us to be forgiven and cleansed by Him. He calls us to trust Him instead of our own strength because He knows our weaknesses and limits. When we follow our own will, we make our journey harder. But when we are faithful to Him, we find rest for our souls.

Inspiration

Deceivers never admit that they are lying. The same is true of deceivers that purport to speak in Jesus’ name. They may use the right words, and their ideas may sound compelling, but only Jesus is the way to the Father. Jesus has given us His example and His word so that we may be discerning and wise, and prepared to resist deception.
