After Jesus rose again, he gave the disciples a calling and one simple instruction before they began. To wait.
He is Risen! Now what?
The Peace of Surrender
Is Jesus weeping over your image of Him? Just like the Jewish crowd during the Triumphal entry, we can create false Jesuses. When we attempt to surrender to those, we are left with calamity in our souls.
Faith and Figs
There’s this often overlooked aspect of the week before Easter where Jesus curses a Fig tree, but this brief event can teach us a lot about good, evil, God, and our faith.
Perfection is a Burden You Don’t Have to Bear
As we grow in our faith, we want to hide our sins more. Falling is for toddlers, not for adults, but Jesus simply wants the honest and genuine you.
Trust the Science- Not the Scientists
In pride, most scientists chuff at the mention of God, yet there are a growing number of them who say that science actually gives proof of Intelligent Design. There is undeniable proof of Jesus and who he was. Because of this proof, we must hold Scripture as truth and form our worldview around it.
Purpose for the Pain
Sickness, Illness and disease are horrible and can make us question God’s love and involvement in our lives. But seek Jesus because He is waiting to tell you how important you are to Him.
Cleansed from Shame
After having a strong relationship with the Lord, I fell into a sinful practice. Even after I stopped, the shame didn't go away. I felt like God couldn't use me anymore. Then one day, He showed me the truth. He discarded my filthy rags of shame and clothed me with peace and hope.
The Seventh Day
I dislike resting, but it is both a command and a necessity.
When “Yes” Sounds Like “I Guess”
God asks us to complete tasks we don’t wish to complete nor will necessarily feel capable of completing. When that happens, we mustn’t run like Jonah did, but learn to say yes to the Lord even in our weakness.
When My Children Became My Gods
The first commandment of the ten commandments is to have no other gods before God. Although most of us don’t bow down and worship statues, it can be surprisingly easy to let ourselves and other people become gods instead. When we do, our lives fall apart, but there’s hope.
