Rejoicing in Suffering
Like you, I’ve gone through sufferings and hard times and I will again I’m sure. But are we rejoicing in our sufferings?Here’s a great quote by CS Lewis, “God whispers to us in our pleasures, speaks in our conscience, but shouts in our pain. It is His megaphone to rouse a deaf world.” “Not only t...

Justified by Faith Alone
Ah…the weekend is here. I’ve been thinking the last couple of days about the journey we have been on together and some of the topics I’ve chased down rabbit holes. Not that I think they’re necessarily bad topics or irrelevant, I just think it’s good to get back to center. Level set, if you will....

God Uses Your Talents to Serve Others
So, in my ongoing search to be a better person, I would always ask God to help me become “a better man.” Funny thing is, I wasn’t exactly sure what that meant. I just knew that it wasn’t who I was feeling I was inside. Well, a funny thing happened...You see, while I was searching and hoping that...

Forgive Without Limit for True Peace
I was thinking on forgiveness a little more over the weekend, and I just want to say, forgiveness is not easy. But no matter how many times a person hurts you, you got to forgive them without limit. I know, I get it, but we have to. To forgive doesn’t mean to forget. You don’t have to reconcile w...

Forgiveness Sets You Free
One of my most favorite topics to discuss is forgiveness. If you’ve been in this devotional journey with me for the last seven and a half years, you know I like to talk about it. But why you may ask? Well, it’s forgiveness that has given us the hope for an eternal life with our maker and it’s for...

Be Watchful: Your Adversary Prowls Like a Roaring Lion
“Be sober-minded; be watchful. Your adversary the devil prowls around like a roaring lion, seeking someone to devour. Resist him, firm in your faith, knowing that the same kinds of suffering are being experienced by your brotherhood throughout the world. And after you have suffered a little while...

Finding Balance Between Truth and Grace
So I’ve been reading a little and diving into the idea of Truth and Grace as it pertains to us and how we may identify with one or the other. Let me explain. “And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us, and we have seen his glory, glory as of the only Son from the Father, full of grace and trut...

Standing Tall on Your Knees
“Nobody stands as tall as a Christian on his knees”I love this anonymous quote. It reminds me to spend time on my knees and thank the Lord for all his blessings and forgiveness. I need it. And because I need it (forgiveness), and because he gave it, I am filled with His grace. God has me covered...

Set a Guard Over My Mouth
You ever opened your mouth and said something you wish you didn’t? Maybe it was out of anger or maybe it was meant to be harmless but without thinking it came out wrong and hurt others? I swear, I do it sometimes without thinking and can’t believe myself afterwards…a lot is tied to my odd sense o...

To Be Forgiven, You Must Forgive Others
So hear’s a thought…I’ve been talking last week about forgiving and how we can and should. But do you want others to forgive you? Even more importantly, do you want God to forgive you? My cousin and I talked about this just last night. You see, in order to be forgiven, you also have to be able to...

Learning to Forgive - The Path to Inner Peace
You ever heard someone say, “that person’s hurt me so many times there’s no way I could ever forgive them”? I have...I may have thought it a time or two as well. Maybe you have? “Pay attention to yourselves! If your brother sins, rebuke him, and if he repents, forgive him, and if he sins against...

Satan Tries to Break, God Tries to Make
Let’s talk about Job for a little bit. You see God would only allow Satan to go so far with Job. We would only allow him to endure just what he was capable of enduring. Just like our own struggles and pain, Satan is trying to break you and God is trying to make you using the same situation. Think...

God's Presence in Our Sinful Moments
You ever get the feeling sometimes that when we sin, that God has left you? Like the feeling you had when you were a kid and you got in trouble with your parents and they punished you and during that moment you felt like they have left you? I have for sure. But the thing is, that feeling that our...

Repent or Perish: God's Call to Bear Fruit
“There were some present at that very time who told him about the Galileans whose blood Pilate had mingled with their sacrifices. And he answered them, "Do you think that these Galileans were worse sinners than all the other Galileans, because they suffered in this way? No, I tell you; but unless...

The Gift You Have to Share
Did you know you have a gift to share? You do, whether you are aware of it or not you’ve got one. Some times these gifts may be internal knowledge or a skill you share. Many times is as simple as sharing a gift God has blessed you with. Maybe it’s a ride for a friend when their car is broken down...

Hard Work as Worship: Paul's Lesson on Grace
We can learn a lot from Paul...“For I am the least of the apostles, unworthy to be called an apostle, because I persecuted the church of God. But by the grace of God I am what I am, and his grace toward me was not in vain. On the contrary, I worked harder than any of them, though it was not I, bu...

Showing Compassion to All
So, I’ve been thinking about what is really means to have compassion. I pray nightly that God lays compassion on my heart towards others...specifically those who oppose me. It’s hard these days with so many labels, differences of opinion, lifestyles, etc. to always connect with people. Anyhow, we...

Believing the Best in Others
I don’t know about you but I’ve got to do better at turning off gossip when I hear it. I also need to not “enable it” when I hear it by giving a participatory laugh or, “now way!” It just makes it worse. It seems as if now days we believe the negative stuff about people more than the positive stu...

Bearing Our Own Load with God's Grace
You ever feel like you have such a huge load or responsibility you find yourself ducking them or delegating them to someone else? I certainly do. But getting someone else to do them doesn’t change the fact you’re responsible for them. But when you take up the responsibility that’s in front of you...

What is Grace? Understanding God's Greatest Gift
Grace. What is it exactly? I mean I sign off with “Grace wins” everyday, but what exactly am I talking about? Well, in the book of Romans, Paul tells us that we can’t receive God’s favor, become righteous, by works alone. Meaning simply obeying the laws of the land wouldn’t get us His favor. So,...

Finding Peace in the Journey, Not the Destination
24I had a great time celebrating the fourth yesterday and got to spend time with a new member of our group yesterday and we got to talk about this devotional, keeping it going through my treatments and what I got out of it. Well, in short I just had to keep moving forward. Getting this out gave m...

WWJD: Faithful Witness vs Judging Others
I know I’ve written about this before, but y’all remember the WWJD bracelets we use to wear?I’ve been reading about how we should watch what we say and how we act and this came to mind. What ever happened to it? Did we figure out what Jesus would do? Did we stop caring? Well, I think it would be...

Embracing Weakness: When We Are Weak, Then We Are Strong
Without a doubt, this is one of my favorite verses in the Bible. “So to keep me from becoming conceited because of the surpassing greatness of the revelations, a thorn was given me in the flesh, a messenger of Satan to harass me, to keep me from becoming conceited. Three times I pleaded with the...
