Gratitude Changes Everything
I read this last night and it bears repeating;“We don’t need to see things differently to be grateful; rather, we must be grateful to see things differently.”Wow, I need to read that. You see, God turns our gratitude into goodness, adds peace to our pain, and provides strength in our struggles. G...

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...

Better Left Unspoken
I got to thinking recently how some things are better left unspoken; don’t give them airtime. In other words, if you don’t have anything nice to say, don’t say it at all...right? Proverbs 10:19 “In the multitude of words sin is not lacking, but he who restrains his lips is wise”.Some things are b...

True Joy Beyond Political Chaos
“Be glad in the Lord, and rejoice, O righteous, and shout for joy, all you upright in heart!”Psalms 32:11 With the election season heating up and the increase in nauseating political garbage, I was thinking how nice it is that we don’t rely on that circus to provide our peace and happiness. One o...

Jesus Doesn't Give Peace - He IS Your Peace
Peace and serenity. We all seek it, we all crave it and we all need it. But where is it exactly? You may be like me and think it’s just in the absence of noise or conflict. But it’s not in the absence those things. It’s the tranquil feeling that’s not dependent on you circumstances. The peace we...

Forgiveness Doesn't Mean Forgetting
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...

Your Victory Was Secured on the Cross
664/15/24So, by now you may already know that Scotti Scheffler has won the Masters. In his post round interview he talked about the conversation he was having with his friends Sunday morning prior to the final round. He wanted to win so bad that it had become almost a worry of sorts. He told his...

Finding Peace Through Non-Anxious Presence Like Jesus
So I’ve been reading and writing about “finding peace” off and on since we started this now. To me, it is one of the most essential parts of my relationship with Christ. My vision of Jesus, in part, is peace. But I have learned recently about a phrase that young students in seminary school are ta...

Finding Peace Through Life's Problems
“I have said these things to you, that in me you may have peace. In the world you will have tribulation. But take heart; I have overcome the world."”John 16:33 Do you ever feel like life is one problem after another?You make it through one issue, but before you can recover another one shoots up....

Perfect Love Casts Out Fear and Worry
I’m sure I’m like the rest of us when I say I’m bad about fear and worry. No matter how much I KNOW my life is in Gods hands and he always provides, I still get caught in worry. When that happens, I think we are not necessarily driving God away, but we are certainly keeping him at bay. “There is...

God Commands Your Courage
“Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be frightened, and do not be dismayed, for the Lord your God is with you wherever you go."”Joshua 1:9 Hearing that you should be strong and courageous is a lofty notion. It’s a pretty great idea. It’s something nice to hear. But God step...

Wisdom in Knowing When to Hold Your Tongue
I got to thinking over the last week how some things are better left unspoken; don’t give them airtime. In other words, if you don’t have anything nice to say, don’t say it at all...right? Proverbs 10:19 “In the multitude of words sin is not lacking, but he who restrains his lips is wise”.Some th...

Attitude: Beyond Feelings to Christ
Attitude determines so much of our lives. It governs the way we perceive the world and the way the world perceives us. It drives behavior and sets the tone for conversations. Attitude literally affects every area of our lives, yet most of us don’t have a good handle on it...but we can. I’m trying...

Overcoming Fear and Looking Forward
23So, I’m talking to one of my flying buddies on the phone yesterday and we were discussing our faith and how we rely on it when we are faced with fear. After we talked I pondered on our chat for a while and one of the things I kept coming back to is what and why I feared some of the things I’ve...

Faith in the Storm: Beyond Mere Belief
So, I made the comment yesterday that, “Believing is not Faith”. I’m confident of this and I believe that, while related, they are drastically different. Faith is not believing in God’s goodness only when we are out of the storm; faith is believing in God’s goodness right in the middle of it. The...

Who Holds Your Future: From Anxiety to Trust
Are we addressing the real issues in our anxiety over what the future holds? Is our anxiety a product of not knowing what the future holds? I submit to you that we are anxious because we are trying to control what happens and not truly giving our lives to God to navigate. We may “believe” he has...

You ever come across someone that you really wanted to give your “two cents” to but thought better of it?

Finding Peace in God's Presence
23It’s 5:15 am as I write this morning and I’m sitting here by the water watching God wake up the world. The waves are gently crashing and the morning sky is slowly glowing pink.

Grace Precedes Peace: God's Riches at Christ's Expense
So I talk about finding peace and serenity a lot. I sign off with “Grace wins” everyday. So I thought we’d talk about the Grace. Grace is, as the acronym states, God’s riches at Christ’s expense. Grace is what opens the door to salvation. And just as grace precedes salvation, grace also always pr...

Experiencing God's Unshakable Peace
Are you truly experiencing the Lord’s peace in your life?In both Hebrew and Greek, the words for peace have a similar meaning. They mean that you have an inner calm. Things might be falling apart around you, but inside you can experience tranquility. You’re as cool as the other side of the pillow...

The Good Shepherd Refreshes Your Soul
I was reading some Max Lucado regarding Psalm 23. The Psalm of David. When we are exhausted and emotionally spent we need to lean into the truth of Scripture and realize that The Lord refreshes our soul. We have everything we need to find rest from life’s crap with Jesus as our shepherd. We can’t...

Living a Lifestyle of Forgiveness and Peace
Today you may have a specific person in mind that you need to forgive. Some of us have had very painful things happen to us, even a long time ago, that need to be forgiven. Forgiveness is truly freedom for our hearts, and peace for our soul. But aside from being able to forgive and put major issu...

False Evidence Appearing Real
What are you afraid of? For most of us, it’s usually something that isn’t really something we should be afraid of, but we have manifested it in our mind that we have created this fear from nothing. There is a great acronym I like regarding FEAR; False Evidence, Appearing, Real. You see most of ou...
