Is There Hope To Share?

Especially during a time of such little hope — But in your hearts set Christ apart [as holy — acknowledging Him, giving Him first place in your lives] as Lord. Always be ready to give a [logical] defense to anyone who asks you to account for the hope and confident assurance [elicited by faith] that is within you, yet…

Is it Necessary to Pray in a Certain Way to be Heard by God?

What is the best pattern? — God gave us the perfect pattern for prayer when the disciples asked, “How should we pray?” Jesus responded. Pray therefore in this manner: O our Father who art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name. Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven. Give us…

The Point System of God

Do you think the more points you have the more He will love you? — We love because God first loved us. (1 John 4:19, CEB) When I asked my dear friend, who has been serving the Lord for many years, “Do you really love God?” her answer was a simple, “No.” I believe, in her heart, she knows that her love is minuscule compared…

Is Being Anxious Sinful?

You make that determination. — Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God. And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus. (Philippians 4:6–7, NRSVUE) Within Christian teaching, there is…

Living in a Selfie World

Is it conceit or is it something else? — My daughter, grandson, and I went to the beach. Two girls in their cute but scant bikinis soon arrived and began posing for selfies for around one hour. Of course, they were beautiful young girls with flowing long hair and taunt bodies. It made me slightly uncomfortable because my teenage…

Hoping for Utopia is Like Hoping to Win the Lottery

Is it, or is it not? — These things I have spoken to you, that in Me you may have peace. In the world you will have tribulation; but be of good cheer, I have overcome the world. (John 16:33, NKJV) Is it even possible to hope for a utopia during this present age? Is it imaginable…

Can We Trust During the Storm?

We have two options — hang on or blow away — I pleaded with the Lord three times for it to leave me alone. He said to me, “My grace is enough for you, because power is made perfect in weakness.” So I’ll gladly spend my time bragging about my weaknesses so that Christ’s power can rest on me. …

Do We Use Too Many Words to Sell Christ?

Maybe less is best so ears can hear — Anyone with ears to hear must listen to the Spirit and understand what he is saying to the churches. (Revelations 2:17, NLT) When in school, one particular teacher would drone on, talking in circles. I couldn’t understand a thing she said. My mind would begin to wander. After class, I…

Can One Tiny Light on a Black Night Make a Difference?

Proof in the evidence — Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father, which is in heaven. (Matthew 5:16, KJV) Have you ever witnessed a satellite crossing the horizon in the night sky? Even though satellites do not have lights, nearly 200 to 300 miles…

Are There Monsters Lurking Under Your Bed?

We all have monsters — The Lord is your protector; the Lord is your shade right beside you. The sun won’t strike you during the day; neither will the moon at night. The Lord will protect you from all evil; God will protect your very life. The Lord will protect you on your journeys —…
