The same voice that thunders over the waters in Psalm 29 is the voice that rules over kings and nations. Storms obey Him, forests bow before Him, and thrones rise and fall at His command. As Daniel told Belshazzar, “The God who holds your breath in His hand and owns all your ways” (Daniel 5:23), nations may plot and rulers may plan, but “The counsel of the Lord stands forever” (Psalm 33:11).
"God is too good to be unkind and He is too wise to be mistaken. And when we cannot trace His hand, we must trust His heart." (Charles Spurgeon)
Calling sin an opinion doesn't stop sin from being poison. And that is why softening what the Bible says so as not to offend, isn't loving, it's lying. "For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord" (Romans 6:23).
Hell has many ways. Heaven but one. Thus, know Christ, no death. Or, no Christ, know death. Jesus said to him, “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me" (John 14:6).
Those who are obedient to truth are never compliant to lies. You see, real eyes realize real lies; and as a result, disciples of Christ do not blindly comply. "However, when He, the Spirit of truth, has come, He will guide you into all truth..." (John 16:13).
Now to Him who is able to preserve you on earth from falling and present you in heaven without fault. "To God our Savior, who alone is wise, be glory and majesty, dominion and power, both now and forever. Amen" (Jude 25).
He who walks with integrity walks securely. In other words, you do not need to worry about outcomes when you trust the Lord for all that comes out. "He who walks with integrity walks securely, but he who perverts his ways will become known" (Proverbs 10:9).
Evil rarely shows up all at once, it slides in slowly. It often begins with a small compromise, a quiet exception to God’s clear standard. What once was called sin gets renamed as struggle. What God defined as holy becomes “open to interpretation.” Over time, the truth isn’t just bent, it’s flipped. Eventually, the culture...
We are officially home from our vacation time, but I have to admit that I have not left behind my “vacation mind.” What’s a vacation mind? It’s a state of mind that unwinds so that the peace of God may enter in. It’s a mind that rewinds to reflect and keeps God at the center. It’s a mind that finds its vacation in Christ without needing to escape from the everyday responsibilities of life. You see, this vacation didn’t help me get away, it actually reminded me to stay close. The time I spent in the Sunshine State reminded me of the shine that can only be found when you take time to “lay out” in the present state of....
It's true, you never really know what you've got until it's gone. But also, in some situations, it takes being gone to realize what you've got. Being back in Florida with my family for the first time in 6 years has taught me a humbling lesson about the void that I left my parents with since I've been gone. Other family members, who are here with us now, (and were here in years past) have told me privately how both my mother and my father have a different type of vacation relief this time around. You see, it's as if--for the past 5 Florida trips--they've left behind a "peace" of luggage that was locked up and....
You really can't walk a few feet in Disney World without seeing people taking photographs. Most of those photo op's involve posing in front of a scenic background or vibrant foreground. Whether it's a giant castle behind you or Minnie Mouse next to you, there is just something "magical" about capturing the moment....or is it more about capturing our own likeness? I'm sorry, this is just how my mind works these days! Perhaps we love seeing ourselves in a picture because deep down inside we are reminiscing about that which is eternal. Perhaps it's not the external image that we are.....
Let's just say I couldn't see this day six years ago.....though, while I was "there", I imagined it every year that my family was here. And it is the imagination that can often be a preview of coming attractions. Anyway, last time I was in Florida was 6 years ago--post-tragedy and pre-prison. And as Magic Kingdom was an amusement option during that time with my family--please understand--it wasn't ALL "Disney" for me....In fact, I would soon be....
