Security comes when we put God’s precepts into practice. We’re only as strong as our obedience. https://t.co/7Ds3ZJrowL

God keeps His promises. Trust Him. https://t.co/pnu5Xloep8

Your life emerges from the greatest mind, the kindest heart in the history of the universe, the mind and heart of God. You are God’s idea, and God doesn’t have any bad ideas.

The Gospels record more than 30 miracles of Jesus. He changed water into wine, calmed storms, restored sight. Yet Jesus never grandstanded his miraculous powers. He performed miracles for two reasons: to prove his identity and to help his people. https://t.co/C748dwA2fM

My wife and I spent five years on a missionary team in Brazil. Our first two years felt fruitless and futile. More often than not I went home frustrated. So we asked God for another plan. https://t.co/0ThrOKqulZ

When disaster strikes, the human spirit responds. People stand in line to give blood. Rescue teams work for endless hours. But the most essential effort is accomplished by another valiant team. Their task?  To gird the world with prayer. https://t.co/GeHdZNvItQ

Expect the Christian life to be challenging. The enemy will not go down without a fight. But God’s promises outweigh personal problems. Victory becomes, dare we imagine, a way of life. https://t.co/9FNHWvioBp

“And I give them eternal life, and they shall never lose it or perish throughout the ages…and no one is able to snatch them out of My hand” (John 10:28). https://t.co/3VtsF3RrE7

Jesus is in hot pursuit of the spiritually blind. He may use a vision or he may use the kindness of a friend or the message of a sermon or the splendor of creation. But believe this, he came to bring sight to the blind. https://t.co/gMwOy091RR

[Max Lucado @MaxLucado]

This story of the blind man in John 9 answers the question, “What does a person need to know to become a follower of Christ?” The man received sight simply because he trusted and obeyed the one who was sent to open eyes that are blind. https://t.co/GZDZZfwvT0

Sometimes God uses the less than pleasant to initiate a miracle—layoffs, let downs, bouts of loneliness. Do not assume that Jesus is absent or oblivious to your struggle. Just the opposite. He is using it to reveal himself to you. https://t.co/MYRzUx6yA1

You and I aren’t invisible. We aren’t overlooked. Jesus spots us on the side of the road and he makes the first move. https://t.co/r2RovLJd6j

From Heaven’s viewpoint, our earth is populated by sightless people. They do not see the meaning of life or the love of God. How else do we explain the confusion and chaos? https://t.co/lT74oVEGFW

“Amazing grace, how sweet the sound that saved a wretch like me. I once was lost, but now I’m found. I was blind, but now I see.” https://t.co/VFm5goIpxO

The next time you pray, “Is anyone coming to help me?” listen for the response of Jesus. “I AM with you in this storm.” https://t.co/1mLWmV6rdq

“So they gladly took Him aboard. And at once the boat reached the shore that they were making for” (John 6:21). The moment the disciples invited Christ into their boat was the moment they reached their destination. https://t.co/tDU5QWuPK1

[Max Lucado @MaxLucado]

Your greatest need is God’s presence. Yes, you want this storm to pass. Yes, you want the winds to still. But yes, yes, yes, you want to know and need to know and must know that the great I AM is near. https://t.co/F1GSzzWp0q

[Max Lucado @MaxLucado]

Storms overtake us, and it sometimes seems they will never end. But then the unimaginable happens. “They saw Jesus walking on the water” (John 6:19). That’s all we need to know. Before Jesus stills the storms, he comes to us in the midst of our storms. https://t.co/KYpwKkIZ1n

The next time you feel overwhelmed, remind yourself of the one who is standing next to you. Give God what you have, offer thanks, and watch him go to work. https://t.co/a7ttUOiX29

[Max Lucado @MaxLucado]

What do you have? All you have is a wimpy prayer, give it. All you have is a meager skill, use it. All you have is the strength for one step, take it. God used three nails and a crude cross to redeem humanity. https://t.co/Oi50cy81Au
