Day 32 of God’s Love

Day 32 of God’s Love for Us December 1, 2017 “Therefore, do not throw away your confidence, which has a great reward. For you have need of endurance, so that when you have done the will of God, you may receive what was promised” (Hebrews 10:35-36NASB). So we have a bad day, or a bad week, or even a bad year, so what. We shouldn’t throw our confidence and self worth in the trash because of that, should we? No, I don’t think so. God will allow us to be tested, because He wants us to have testimony. He will Read More


Day 31 of God’s Love

Day 31 of God’s Love for Us November 30, 2017 We know that love comes from God. “By this, love is perfected with us, so that we may have confidence in the day of judgement…There is no fear in love; but perfect love casts out fear, because fear involves punishment, and the one who fears is not perfected in love”(1 John 4:17-18NASB). Perfected here has the meaning of moral character becoming perfect. Fear comes from the devil and is the opposite of love. If we love God, then we need to love ourselves. God doesn’t hold grudges against those who Read More


Day 30 of God’s Love

Day 30 of God’s Love for Us November 29, 2017 What is love? Is it just an emotion, or is it something more- an action? Love is a choice, and choice is an action. “Beloved, let us love one another, for love is from God; and everyone who loves is born of God and knows God”(1 John 4:7NASB). I heard a pastor say today, “…if you don’t love your neighbor, you don’t love God;” he went on to say, “If you have a problem with someone else (your neighbor), your relationship with God isn’t right.” He derived his statements from Read More


Day 29 of God’s Love

Day 29 of God’s Love for Us November 27, 2017 “These things I have spoken to you, so that in Me you may have peace. In the world you have tribulation, but take courage; I have overcome the world”(John 16:33 NASB). Jesus told this to His disciples before He was betrayed to give them hope through the tribulation that was coming. After that, Jesus prayed, “But now I come to You; and these things I speak in the world so that they may have My joy made full in themselves”(John 17:13). Jesus had told them previously that He was “the Read More


Day 28 of God’s Love

Day 28 of God’s Love for Us November 22, 2017 Why do we have struggles in our lives? The easy answer is that we are rebellious in our hearts. We are either rebellious against God or rebellious against the devil. Struggles are meant as discipline and meant to teach us to seek good, seek God and his ways. Who, as a kid, was ever disciplined for doing morally right? If so, then it was done by someone who was immoral. “No discipline seems pleasant at the time, but painful.”(Hebrews 12:11) “Our fathers (parents) disciplined us as they thought best; but Read More


How to Combat Fear

How to Combat Fear November 21, 2017 I’ve heard a few quotes and lyrics worth posting and sharing that I am going to remember. Please share these with anyone you know who IS struggling in anyway. “Most of the things that happen, don’t accidentally occur, they are a result of seeds that you plant in the ground of your life and grow into a harvest. And if you don’t plant anything in the field of your life, then weeds will grow.”        Dave Ramsey “Success is made on the dark, stormy, cloudy days of your life, if you Read More


Motivational Thoughts

November 18, 2017 “Lord, You have redeemed my past, made my present make sense, and secured my future.”       written by an African Pastor in 1800’s who was martyred. (I’ve added a few words to make it a personal statement) “If we live by faith and not by sight,     then if we stand we will stand as giants, and if walk we will walk as lions.”    Lions by Skillett “If it’s true that You use broken things, then here I am Lord, I’m all Yours!”  Broken Things by Matthew West Jesus has overcome all fear and thoughts Read More
