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?

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...

Do You Want to Be Happy or Right?
I had someone tell me years ago, “do you want to be happy or right?” Pretty good question I think, because we all want to be happy and we usually want to be right. Right? Think about the last argument you had, did you win? Did you prove you were right at the expense of the other person? You may h...

Jesus Died for All: Living in Peace with Others

Finding Perfect Peace in Life's Imperfect Circumstances
So, what causes us to think God’s peace equals perfection on earth? Our expectations. I read where a pastor once said, “If I’m going to live at peace, I’ve got to surrender my expectation of perfection. Peace isn’t found in a place or in a set of circumstances that are problem free.” Amen, huh?Wh...

Finding Peace That Defies Logic
If you’ve been on this devotional list for a long time, you’ve heard me talk about peace and serenity. The peace and serenity I am referring to is the kind you only find through Jesus. The only kind you can find that can sustain you through pain. That is the peace that is sustaining me today...“P...

No Fear in the Valley: God's Mighty Protection
We all get scared. Some of us crave that sense of fear and go looking for it. But I think generally speaking we all get nervous and fear normal things too. I’m referring to physical breakdowns like illness (cancer comes to mind), injury, and death, but far worse is the danger of evil, of falling...

Strengthening Faith: Finding Answers in God's Word
I had a great conversation with a young man yesterday about his faith in Jesus. You see, like all of us, our faith gets challenged daily by non believers, false profits and believers alike. If we are not careful, it can cause us to have questions about our faith and really lead to some internal c...

Finding Peace Through a Calm and Humble Soul
One of the shortest Psalms, Psalm 131 is like a status update from a humble person. In about the length of a tweet, it lets God know where David is at in relation to the Lord.“O Lord, my heart is not lifted up; my eyes are not raised too high; I do not occupy myself with things too great and too...

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...
