You’ll find two types of blogs here: long-form (Blog) & short-form (Daily Dose).
At the end of Paul’s life, we don’t see a spotlight on himself, we see a list of names highlighting others. Quiet servants. Hidden helpers. Ordinary people who stayed faithful. In a world that celebrates fame, God honors faithfulness. (See 2 Timothy 4:19-22)
Nothing in this world can take your life until God permits. And nothing in this world can preserve your life unless God permits. Thus, let us learn to trust what God permits and let us find rest in knowing nothing can happen without His permission. "The earth is the Lord’s, and all its fullness, the world and those who dwell therein" (Psalm 24:1).
Hope in Christ. For all other people and places are hopeless. And when our hope is in Christ alone, we come to know this world is not our home. "To them God has chosen to make known among the Gentiles the glorious riches of this mystery, which is Christ in you, the hope of glory" (Colossians 1:27).
Worldly people will always be compliant with the ways of the world. Conversely, godly people will always be obedient to the ways of God. Thus, let us choose this day who we will obey! Obedience over compliance. "But Peter and the other apostles answered and said: “We ought to obey God rather than men" (Acts 5:29).
Those who behold heaven will be held by heaven. You see, when the mind is set on things above, the mind becomes settled by the King above. "Set your mind on things above, not on things on the earth" (Colossians 3:2).
The answer to every prayer is "God's will be done." In other words, if you believe His will is always best, then it's easy to trust that He will answer your request. "Your kingdom come, Your will be done, on earth as it is in heaven" (Matthew 6:10).
Seasons change, but God remains the same. People may be inconsistent, but God remains constant. He is the never-changing God in an ever-changing world. "Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today, and forever" (Hebrews 13:8).
Christian, use your brain. I’m not talking to the world; I’m talking to true believers. Discernment isn’t just a spiritual gift; it’s a spiritual discipline. It’s forged through...
Nothing long today, but strong in every way. Not so wide either, but deep. It’s the difference between seed and sod. It’s the contrast between root growing and surface showing. It’s the polarized results of the “here I am” perspective and the “there you are” objective.One way leads to life, while the other way leads to strife. Seed goes deep and pushes up....
I’m not actually sure where this month has gone, wow! Thanksgiving 2009 seems like it was just yesterday. It was my last Thanksgiving as a free man for at least the next 5 years. And I can recall wishing that the time would slow down, as January 7, 2010, my sentencing day, was quickly approaching. If we fast-forward to now, Thanksgiving 2011, you would think I....
I am on the road for the next few days with speaking engagements, so I don’t have the time to write a blog. However, I decided to post a blog which I wrote four months after being incarcerated in 2010. It’s interesting to see the purpose that burned in my heart being fulfilled today (THY WILL BE DONE--May 25, 2010): I received a letter the other day that really.....
TERROR STRIKES AGAIN! This headline is all too familiar in our world today, where “high alerts”, terrorist attacks, or mass murders seem, sadly, eerily, too regular. Yet no matter how frequent these terrors have become, we still have a hard time accepting such atrocities. The generations below me don’t know a world without this type of carnage and their responses either numbs them to violence or “dumbs them” to ignorance. Please allow this tweet to explain what I mean when I say “dumbs them”: “Please don’t pray for Paris. Think for Paris. Love for Paris. Laugh for Paris. Have sex for Paris. We’ve had enough religion for one night.” Based on that comment alone, it is clear how terror and evil produces......
