The world needs it more now than ever ...

Because I Said So

If you ever had a child, you know how they can often question anything you ask of them.  At some point, you chime in with that age old response, "Because I said so!"  In our walk of faith, we often come to a point where we find ourselves very much like a child, but our questions are far more complex and have far greater impact in our life.  Today's devotion tells us from experience, we need to follow through on those things God requests of us whether we understand them or not ...

Hungry

We all know the feeling of working up an appetite.  I deliberately starved this weekend to ensure I would have room for a dinner at my favorite restaurant in Chicago. But no one wants to eat when they are full.  What if you don't know?  When it comes to God, many of us did not start out hungering for Him.  So, how do we create hunger for a world that sometimes doesn't know it is starving for the message of Christ?  Let us begin ...

Glorify God With Your Body

Do you serve God with all that you have? Paul said that we should serve God with our bodies too. God sees our bodies as instruments for glorifying Him….maybe you should start seeing it that way too!

Not Feeling It

When there are so many things coming at you, it is easy for you to not want to do things. Maybe the job has been mentally taxing or moving into a new place has you physically exhausted. Or perhaps some tragic event has impacted you such that you really do not want to interact with others.  What if any of those impact your relationship with God such that you do not even want to talk with Him?  Today's devotion might answer that question for you ...

He Is Coming Back

Jesus told us not to get anxious about the catastrophic events, the signs or the people who claim current events prove that the end is here. Instead, just stay ready and keep our faith in Him. Beyond that, there’s only one thing we really need to know… He’s coming back!

Prompted By Faith

Feeling called to make a difference, but unsure if your acts of service are “enough”? The story of the Good Samaritan reminds us that it’s not about how much we do, but about having a heart willing to serve when God prompts us. Even small acts of kindness can show Christ’s love to a lonely world. Let’s be the neighbor Jesus calls us to be—serving others with compassion, whenever and however we can.

We Must Protect This House

Do the things that make God angry also make you angry? If so, then you understand Jesus’ passion for keeping the place where God abides, from being defiled. God has chosen for His Spirit to abide in us…. Let us have the same passion as Jesus to protect His house.

An Opportunity

We often see trials as problems we must address or challenges we must overcome.  But what if we saw them as opportunities to learn of God's grace?  What if we knew that in the end, we would gain far more out of it than what we put in?  My hope is today's devotion will give you that very perspective ...
