I need strength today. Jesus is strength...I need Jesus.
I need love today. Jesus is love...I need Jesus.

Rest this day on the solid ground of Calvary.
Take refuge in the shadow of the cross - Where the Savior holds you and his blood cleanses you, declaring a better word over you.
What is that word? Tetelestai — It is finished!
Can there be any greater daily assurance and joy?
Lord, raise up more Simeon's in your Church!
"Now there was a man in Jerusalem, whose name was Simeon, and this man was righteous and devout, waiting for the consolation of Israel, and the Holy Spirit was upon him." Luke 2:25

@WokePreacherTV AND conclude that we had some ulterior motive of cancelling those who are speaking out against expressions of evil? Wow. This is truly everything that is wrong with Twitter and the church’s macro understanding of fighting together for the glory of God. (2/2)
@WokePreacherTV Forgive me for replying, because I know that’s exactly what you want. But in a podcast about the biblical design of marriage as one man, one woman, one flesh, for one lifetime … you somehow managed to glean from it some level of “wokeness”? (1/2)
This thread will be dedicated to the victims of the mass shooting in Buffalo.
This is Ruth Whitfield, 86. Her son, the former Buffalo Fire Commissioner, said she was on her way from visiting her husband in a nursing home and stopped at the store to get something to eat.
The kingdom of God comes primarily through a self-denying and sacrificial people who proclaim and demonstrate a gospel of grace; a gospel most tangibly experienced by a hostile world through the extraordinary Christian ethic of love for enemy.
Our disposition, not our opposition, is the Christian posture that winsomely engages the skeptic.
Poor in spirit.
Mournful.
Meek.
Hungry for righteousness.
Merciful.
Pure in heart.
Peacemaker.
Persecuted for righteousness sake.

Before he was executed, he washed the feet of the man who would betray him. As he was being arrested, he healed the wound of one of his captors. As he hung on the cross, he asked God to forgive his killers. This is what it looks like to love your enemies.

“Leave, then, all other desires. He who made heaven and earth is more beautiful than all things … learn to love the Creator in the creature … never permit what was made by Him to take such a hold upon you that you lose Him by whom you yourself were made.” Augustine
To walk as Spirit-filled Christians means we…
Go places we normally wouldn’t go.
Do things we normally wouldn’t do.
Say things we normally wouldn’t say.
Risk things we normally wouldn’t risk.
To the glory of God.
Ephesians 5:18
