When we don’t feel like reading the Bible, how can we help ourselves submit to reading?

While the Bible tells us to flee sexual immorality, it also talks about taking the sword of the Spirit. How does this help us in fighting lustful temptations?

Three thoughts on how to celebrate Easter. Often times we get so busy during holidays that we forget there's a point in holidays... that being, they give us a moment to remember.

That God is rich in mercy means your regions of deepest shame and regret are not hotels through which divine mercy passes but homes in which divine mercy abides.

God is not as hard on you as you are on yourself.

What elicits tenderness from Jesus is not the severity of the sin but whether the sinner comes to him.

What you need more than another sermon, another how-to book, or a self-help article is to get alone with God.

What I wish I would have said to that weary nurse…

Darkness shrouds what is truly there. Darkness is not the reality, darkness is merely the inability to see what is present. Remind me of this when darkness enters, Lord, that you are my light.

We all will move in and out of waiting seasons as Christians. Do we ever give much thought to how to wait well?

How many of my failures this past year would have been dodged had I prayed more fervently on January 1, 2020? Would I had been more prepared for the year that was to come?

Temptation towards sin is only one battle ground for Satan in the life of a Christian. The other place of temptation is after you have fallen.

We have this false notion that the more time we get between our current location and the last 'big sin', the purer we are in God's eyes. But is this biblical?

Our hearts are daily idol factories, grafting our affections onto created things that were never meant to hold our allegiances and affections. Idols promise us life, pleasure, and satisfaction, but in the end, only deliver death.

The question is- How do we lay these sinful desires down?

This morning I was with the Holy One. Not because I deserved it. Not because I'm Special. Not because of anything I did. I was just needy. I voiced my neediness to God. And God loves to glorify Himself when we are needy.

We all bring objections to God’s love for us. The question is, what does God do with our objections?

Perhaps you do not doubt that God forgives and still loves you when you sin. But have you bought into a more subtle theological error? The idea that when you sin, when you fall, when you are at your weakest, you receive a “lesser measure” of grace, than you do when you are faithful and strong?

Most of our wrong thoughts of God are not untrue thoughts of God, they are simply true thoughts of God taken to the extreme. It is not wrong to think of God as all that we have listed above. He is all of that and more, but we do begin to be unbalanced when that is all we think of God.

Perhaps one of the reasons some of us struggle so deeply to grasp the grace of God is because we are not comfortable receiving.
