Reflections from August, 2017

Reflections from August, 2017

Strength is demonstrated by a gentle spirit--a life dedicated to lifting up, not tearing down.  Flex your spiritual "muscles" today.
__________

"And be kind to one another, tender-hearted, forgiving each other, just as God in Christ also has forgiven you."

Does our world need anything more desperately than it needs visible and verbal acts of kindness?  I cannot control the world.  But I can--in my world--be an ambassador of kindness.
__________

The worst motivation for any decision is pride.  Prides is the catalyst for the fall.  "Humble yourself under the mighty hand of God" is the catalyst for doing the good that honors and glorifies Him.
__________

No one has ever done anything to you that excuses you from God's call to faithfulness.
__________

In God's kingdom "compassion" is an action verb.
__________

How different the world would be if we just obeyed that one command:  "Treat others as you would like them to treat you."
___________

He is in complete control.
__________

Prayers for revival must always begin here:  "Search me, O God, and know my heart today.  Try me, O Savior, know my thoughts, I pray.  See if there be some wicked way in me; cleanse me from every sin and set me free."
__________
