"All of nature sings God's glory; we alone are out of tune. The question is this: How can we be brought back into the great music?" - Tim Keller

If you feed your fear, your faith loses.

"If you put too many things in your need category, you will end up frustrated with life, hurt by others, and doubting God's goodness" (Paul David Tripp). Be careful to distinguish needs from wants. God supplies all our needs but rarely all our wants - and thank God for that!

[Kevin Robbins @KevinRobbins57]

"It is remarkable that God not only allows his creatures to complain to him of their ills but actually records those wails in his Word. 'The very presence of such prayers in Scripture is a witness to His understanding. He knows how men speak when they are desperate'" (Tim Keller)

[Kevin Robbins @KevinRobbins57]

"The Psalms are remarkable for recording with brutal honesty the cries of those who are sick and suffering. The Bible knows nothing of 'Pain is an illusion' or 'Just don't let it get to you.'" (Tim Keller in "The Songs of Jesus").

We can't MEET as a church tomorrow but we get to BE the church today. A young family in our church, with three small children, were burned out by a house fire last Saturday. We're cleaning a rental for them today and moving them in - all in shifts while trying to be virus-aware.

The Greek language of the New Testament has two different words for "time" - "chronos" refers to the passage of time, while "kairos" refers to a moment in time full of opportunities. Colossians 4:5 says to "make the most of every opportunity" ("kairos"). Let's be the church!

[Kevin Robbins @KevinRobbins57]

"Devote yourselves to prayer, being watchful and thankful" (Colossians 4:2). Why is it important to be "thankful" in our prayers? Thanking God helps to transform us from needy "wanters" and "askers" to grateful "receivers." We regularly receive from God far more than we deserve.

"In every situation and every circumstance of your life, God is always doing a thousand different things that you do not know and you cannot see." - John Piper

[Kevin Robbins @KevinRobbins57]

Colossians 4:2 says, "Devote yourselves to prayer, being watchful and thankful." The verb means, "to adhere to, persist in, busy oneself in." I want to be thought of as a man devoted to my family and to my work. Am I devoted to prayer?

[Timothy Keller (1950-2023) @timkellernyc]

Jesus cannot simply be liked, you either kill Him or crown Him in your life.

Francis Chan: "Public passion should never exceed private devotion."

[Kevin Robbins @KevinRobbins57]

True humility responds with grace when we're hurt; opens new doors of insight when we're stuck; and responds with obedience when God speaks.

Kudos to Chris Wallace - I wouldn't want his job! #debatenight

[Kevin Robbins @KevinRobbins57]

Does anyone really want either of these two to be our next president?! #debate

@SNFonNBC
Not a fan of the new theme song - doesn't seem the same without "Waiting All Day For Sunday Night"!

John Maxwell: "Most people have uphill hopes but downhill habits." Too true! Your life will get pulled in the direction of your habits.
