“Man is like a breath; his days are like a passing shadow.” Psalm 144:4. Actually it is much shorter when you consider the relationship between 85 years on earth and trillions of years following in heaven or hell.
If we do what we want, when we want, we will waste the little time we have. But if we use our time to pursue God and love others, we’ll live the fullest and happiest lives possible.
"It is better to be divided by truth than to be united in error, to speak the truth that hurts & then heals, than falsehood that comforts and then kills. It is better to ultimately succeed with truth than to temporarily succeed with lies. There is only one Gospel." Adrian Rogers
Isaiah 40:31 doesn’t say those who wait will renew their strength. Nothing’s more exhausting than waiting. It says those who wait ON THE LORD will renew their strength. We tend to hear “trust God while you wait on the thing” & miss the key. He’s redirecting focus! “Wait on ME!”
Jesus loves the little children. Every wrong performed against them He takes personally.
“See that you do not despise one of these little ones. For I tell you that in heaven their angels always see the face of my Father who is in heaven.”
—Jesus
Mt 18:10
No guilt in life, no fear in death,
This is the power of Christ in me.
From life's first cry to final breath,
Jesus commands my destiny.
No power of hell, no scheme of man,
Can ever pluck me from His hand.
'Til He returns or calls me home,
Here in the power of Christ I'll stand.
When I sit quietly with God instead of trying to figure everything out, He takes my anxiety & replaces it with His peace, wisdom & security.
Lord, I hand this situation over to You. Humble me. Show me what steps to take. And help me to trust You with this every. single. day.
John Piper: “Many of you don’t care if your lives make a lasting difference. You just want to be liked. And that is a tragedy in the making.” https://t.co/T3foSYGpbc
I needed to make a video for New Light but nobody could agree on a budget. (MUSIC INDUSTRY amirite?) So I went to a place downtown and made this with a company that usually does birthday and Bar Mitzvah videos. Link: https://t.co/L0ZnOdqANz
