Inner Supply
This squirrel can get through the winter because he has taken the time to store up a supply of nuts. We also can get through the hard times in our life if we take the time to store up God’s Word in our hearts.
One of These Days…
To those shepherds so long ago, it was just another ordinary day, or night, on the job. They didn’t know that they would soon be visited by angels, or that it would be the night of the Messiah’s (Jesus) long awaited arrival on earth. Jesus tells us in Matthew 24:36-44 that his return will also come one of these days when we are not expecting it, and that we “must be ready, because the Son of Man will come at an hour when you do not expect him.” (NIV)
Peace on Earth?
You may never see this verse, Luke 12:51, on a Christmas card, but Jesus said that His first coming will not bring peace on earth, but division; division between those who accept Him, and those who reject Him.
God’s Gift
If you offer your heart to God in faith, He will fill it with Jesus, and with all of things that Jesus brings with Him, such as righteousness, love, peace, & joy.
Symphony
The church is made up of diverse peoples,with different cultures and styles. But, we can come together in unity when we are all following Jesus.
Dinner Bell
The good news is that, through Jesus, everyone is invited to partake of God’s blessing. We need to be telling the world about the blessing Christ has provided for them.
Garment of Praise
All around us in this world is the spirit of heaviness, despair and depression. The garment of praise can protect us from these, even though it may look silly to some.
Mole Hole
To many people in this world, the revelation of God’s love is as strange as sunlight is to a mole. We must continue to hold out to them the invitation to “come and see”, to take a step on the ladder of faith and experience the goodness of the Lord for themselves.
Character Builder
Building Christian character can be a strain sometimes, but it is necessary to “keep you from being ineffective and unproductive in your knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ.” – 2 Peter 1:8 NIV
