Here are some of the thoughts:
I’m so aware that all my efforts to please God, has always lead to disappointment and frustration. This morning again, on my way to work, I was confronted with thoughts that could have left me with a sense of …. not fullness, not satisfaction. I was reminded again that there is a secret to satisfaction – a key to contentment no matter what circumstances …

We don’t see them frantically storing in barns or fretting about where the next meal will come from.
They are simply careless in the care of God. We can take a lesson from the flowers too, who effortlessly display such beauty without even holding one clothing account.
“What I’m trying to do here is to get you to relax, to not be so preoccupied with getting, so you can respond to God’s giving.” Matt 6:31
I don’t see Matthew 6:25 as a how-to-stress-less teaching. But, …

This is a profound truth concerning how God intended for us to live. We spend our lives trying to do things instead of being. We were created for His pleasure, to be all God intended for us to be. We accommodate the wrong idea or thinking about ourselves, due to all our own experiences in life. We often make the mistake of judging ourselves in the …

Never disqualify yourself from the full benefit of what God made available for your enjoyment. The enemy will try anything to persuade us that we are disqualified from both enjoying and proclaiming this relationship with God. Distraction is His ultimate strategy.
Even what we consider ‘ministry’ could be a distraction from God’s point of view! Let me illustrate. A couple of days ago I casually started thinking about the ways, methods and resources we use to ‘promote’ this gospel – …

But thanks be to God, Who in Christ always leads us in triumph as trophies of Christ’s victory and through us spreads and makes evident the fragrance of the knowledge of God everywhere, For we are the sweet fragrance of Christ [which exhales] unto God, [discernible alike] among those who are being saved and among those who are perishing: To the latter it is an aroma from death to death; to the former it is an aroma from life to life [a vital fragrance, living and fresh]. …

But what is ‘time’? We’ve become so familiar with our measure of time – seconds, hours, days, years – that it is easy to confuse our measures of time with time itself. Our experience of time and our measures of time might be far too narrow because they are limited by our specific point of view.
There are many interesting philosophies about time and …
