"The Ten Commandments are just as valid today as they were when God gave them. They reflect the moral character of God, and they also provide the foundation of right living with others." #BillyGraham
As Christians, we are called to "pray without ceasing" (1 Thess. 5:17), to be transformed through the discipline of study (Rom. 12:2), to be ambassadors for Christ (2 Cor. 5:20) and to always be willing to share with others the hope we have in Jesus Christ (1 Peter 3:15).
"God can do more with a few days of your time if given completely to Him, than He can with a whole life characterized by a half-hearted service." #BillyGraham
Focus on the journey, not the outcome. Writing is a very vulnerable, contact sport. We put our heart out there for others to use as a soccer ball. Rewards must be intrinsic with the rare possibility of external validation.
The rejections have started trickling in for my latest book. I know I'm not supposed to take it to heart but I am feeling somewhat demoralised. #writingcommunity do you ever have the sinking feeling that maybe the dream just isn't going to happen for you? Sigh.....
Jesus didn't tell Rome, take my people's money and feed the hungry. He did tell believers, use your gifts for good:
Feed His sheep, (John 21:17)
Help My people (Leviticus 25:35)
Help God's people (Isaiah 58:6-7)
Jesus wasn't a socialist, He is God with high expectations
