You’ll find two types of blogs here: long-form (Blog) & short-form (Daily Dose).
Gratitude turns what we have into enough, because it shifts our focus from what’s missing to Who is present. A thankful heart sees God’s hand in both plenty and in pain, and finds peace in His provision. When we practice gratitude, lack loses its grip and contentment takes its place. “In everything give thanks; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you” (1 Thessalonians 5:18).
Those who understand the Word of God (in head) and who stand under the God of the Word (in heart) are those whose hands want to teach the found and reach the lost. Conversely, to have God's Word in our head and not our heart is religion without reality.
"When I understand that everything happening to me is to make me more Christ-like, it resolves a great deal of anxiety." -A.W. Tozer
True repentance is contrite not contrived. And as such, some of us need to repent from our lack of awareness that we need repentance. "For You do not desire sacrifice, or else I would give it; You do not delight in burnt...
There is no word that can prevail with God like His own Word. Thus, let us use the Word of God to petition the God of the Word, for He cannot deny what He has supplied. "So shall My word be that goes forth from My mouth; it shall...
The greater our biblical awareness, the deeper our spiritual brokenness. In other words, to know God's heart is to feel the world's hurt. And to feel the hurt of the world is to be passionate about connecting people with the hope that is only found in the Lord.
If you are living godly, then don't be shocked when you are persecuted by those who hate God. Remember, righteousness often offends those who lack it. "Yes, and all who desire to live godly in Christ Jesus will suffer persecution" (II Timothy 3:12).
On Labor Day weekend, I’ll begin a new teaching series at Landmark Church titled “The Last Revelation: Countdown To The Kingdom.” For the past several months, I’ve been studying, praying, and seeking the Lord in preparation for what He desires to...
With yet another senseless tragedy, I know it is easy to become fatigued by sympathy. I mean, you cannot turn on the news these days without bad news dominating our eyes and ultimately creating anger, angst, or apathy within our hearts. Yet for the individual who calls them-self a "Christian," we must remember how Jesus said "in this world...
Being out of prison for this long, you'd probably think that I wouldn't still be in contact with so many jail-birds. No, not my former peers! I’m referring to my new friends at the seashore--seagulls. You see, seagulls were a common sight in the big yard and by watching them, I found some interesting parallels...
It is quite easy to be discontent with the place where God has placed you. Actually, it is because we lose sight of God's grace that we fight the place where God has chosen to plant us. But when we recognize that we are right where we need to be--which means we are surrendered to God's will--we become trees of righteousness, planted by the Lord for His glory through...
[Admin Note: This is a journal entry from Matthew's time in prison, recorded on October 16th, 2010] I failed terribly today, and I have to admit, it was well worth it. I tend to suffer most in the recovery following these moments of failure, but trust that the more I suffer, the more I will eventually have to offer others. Please allow me to explain: I allowed a trivial incident to steal my peace today and I learned a valuable lesson in the process: I can only be
