If God Is for Us
I was reading through Romans the other day and one verse stopped me in my tracks. Romans 8:31, "If God is for us, who can be against us?"
Let that sink in for a second. What an incredibly comforting promise from the living God, especially in the troubled times in which we are living. But God requires from us two things in return. Faithfulness and obedience.
Listen, He's a jealous God, y'all. He's not interested in sharing the top spot with your career, your bank account, or anything else you've been putting ahead of Him. If we put Him above all else, then He shall be a friend to you and me, a friend who sticks closer than any brother. Put everything before Him and we are sure to see it go away.
So here's the deal. If God be on our side then you and I are in the majority. This is exactly how you and I must live. We must put our trust in the living God who is for us and who provides for us. He alone will see us through.
Such a simple thought. But simple doesn't mean easy, does it?
Be Nice. Grace Wins.

More Than Enough
Jesus doesn't need the sharpest tool in the shed. Two fish and five loaves, a shepherd's stick, whatever you've got, is more than enough. The Lord specializes in turning failures into successes.

In the Majority
If God is for us, who can be against us? A jealous God asks for our faithfulness in return, and gives us a friend who sticks closer than a brother. If God is on our side, we're in the majority.
