God's first words after the Fall were, "Where are you?" It's only one word in Hebrew: אַיֶּכָּה (ayyekkah). In that one word is compressed a whole theology: -God seeks out the lost sinner. -God welcomes him to confess. -God desires his restoration. -God works his redemption.
One sign you’ve encountered God is you walk with a limp, not a strut.
Holiness means the virtue of humility has solidified in our character, meaning that other-consciousness has become our consistent pattern of thinking, feeling, and acting.
Dallas Willard said Christianity is: “More of me belonging to more of God” I like that. The Heidelberg Catechism says our great comfort in life and in death is that we belong to our faithful Savior. It is our awareness of that reality that ebbs and wanes throughout life.…
No spiritual discipline can make God love you. It’s too late for that. God already loves you. But spiritual disciplines helps us to live in God's love, and offer it to others.
Most of us have bad memories associated with a certain place, day, sound, smell, or thing. A whiff of perfume worn by someone who stabbed us in the back. A song playing the moment the phone call came with the news that undid our world. Memories take form. And those forms, long…
There is great hope in knowing God is not calling us to bigger, better or extraordinary. He wants to take the small, hidden, little & seemingly unimportant things in our lives & inject them with eternal glory. We can rest in our commonness, our ordinariness, and our smallness.
THOUGHT FOR THE DAY: "Prayer is taking a chance that against all odds and past history, we are loved and chosen, and we do not have to get it together before we show up." @ANNELAMOTT
You do not need to be extraordinary. You need to be ordinary, inhabited by the extraordinary life of God. A word, a meal, or a cup of cold water have the capacity to bring the life of God to this world and delight His heart.
You can receive, understand and live in light of God’s truth, because you have been awakened and are being empowered by the Holy Spirit. Grace!
To repent is not to look downwards at my own shortcomings, but upwards at God's love, it is not to look backwards with self-reproach but forward with trustfulness, it is to see not what I have failed to be, but what by the grace of Christ I might yet become. –St John Climacus
One of the sweet things about the Spirit's convicting work is that it's FULL of God’s kindness even when it hurts. We grieve our sin with the hope of the Gospel, not the shame of failure. As he convicts us, the Spirit reminds us Jesus is our righteousness. #SeveralSweetThings
“In our envy of others we are actually confessing our bitterness toward God.” - Darrin Patrick
When you're drowning in the dark waters of grief or shame or pain, Jesus is not a coach who stands on the shoreline, shouting swimming instructions. He is the Savior who leaps into danger unhesitatingly, holds your head above water, and swims you to shore. He doesn't tell you…
Adoption is the highest privilege of the gospel. To be right with God the Judge is a great thing, but to be loved and cared for by God the Father is greater. — J. I. Packer
“I think a mature Christian is someone who is very difficult to offend.” - Dallas Willard “The definition of spiritual growth is going from having thin skin and a hard heart to having thick skin and a tender heart.” - John Stott
Listening is a posture of attentiveness that acknowledges the presence of another.
C. S. Lewis, “The Obstinacy of Belief”:
Do everything you can to live today in the love that exists between the Father and the Son.
