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).
"A friend loves at all times, and a brother is born for a time of adversity" (Proverbs 17:17). A few friends who understand your tears are much more valuable than a lot of friends who only know your laughs.
Matthew Maher presents Daily Dose: God absolutely understands your hurt. But you must absolutely give your hurt up to Him in order for Him to help. He isn't distant from us; in fact, He came to us when He gave us Jesus. He feels our pain and our hurts, but He stills invites us to receive His peace in our hearts.
Matthew Maher presents Daily Dose: He who looks to his circumstances, looks to stumble. But he who looks to Christ, looks to stand. With that being stated, where are you looking today?
Matthew Maher presents Daily Dose: It is very hard to convince someone of the Gospel when you have already convinced them of gossip. Those two stories cannot coexist on your tongue if you expect to have a positive affect on someone else's heart. Let the Gospel be the only story you tell others about, with Jesus as the Someone you are talking about.
Like a jeweler displays a diamond against a black velvet backdrop, so does God show off His brilliant brightness by pulling us out of any darkness. And though He erases our sin, He doesn't throw away the ingredients that led us to Him. He uses it all--and against the "black velvet" of my past--the diamond of Jesus shines ever brighter in my present. #Clarity #Diamonds #TrueStory
Matthew Maher presents Daily Dose: "This is the day the Lord has made, let us rejoice and be glad in it" (Psalm 118:24). Get up and get rejoicing today. Not only is this the day the Lord has made, but your life is a springboard for His grace and glory to be seen.
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...
Some may call it an epiphany, but I choose to call it a symphony, because these thoughts are music to my soul. I didn’t have to write this blog, I got to. I don't have to wake up and get in the Word, I get to. I don’t have to share my heart as I speak in schools, it’s a blessing to. I don’t have to prepare messages for church...
These thoughts were written in March of 2013 while I was incarcerated at Mid-State Correctional Facility. As I re-read them now all of this time later, I realize they are still appropriate. These thoughts are still the desire of my heart ("that Jesus may increase and I may decrease"): "I just want to be avoided or overlooked by my peers and especially by the...
I always try to write out of a storehouse of my own experiences and feelings. I mean, when I present hope as being the anchor of the soul through a struggle, I'm not just throwing out a platitude. I’m doing so from having lived through the paralyzing feel of struggle. Many struggles. However I have learned that hope is a handle, that allow...
I strike several keys on my word processor, stringing unrelatable words together, and then I pause. Backspace. Backspace. I hold down the backspace key until the screen is blank again. If the machine could speak it would say, “STOP PUSHING BUTTONS!” Not yet! Because I cannot rest until...
