If Jesus Was Indeed As He Said He Is,
No longer contented to settle for the ordinary; but called to go for the extraordinary. Only thing is, there is no if.

Are you willing to stoop down and consider the needs and desires of little children; To remember the weakness, the loneliness of people who are growing old; To stop asking how much your friends love you and ask yourself whether you love them enough; To bear in mind the things that other people have to bear in their hearts; To try to understand what those who live in the same house with you really...

What actually took place is this: I tried keeping rules and working my head off to please God, and it didn’t work. So I quit being a “law man” so that I could be God’s man. Christ’s life showed me how, and enabled me to do it. I identified myself completely with him. Indeed, I have been crucified with Christ. My ego is no longer central. It is no longer...

Dear God,
To obey is better than sacrifice. I pray that I would submit in obedience to Your will and plan for me at the cost of Your precious blood poured out for me.

Twiddley Bird
Little Sunshine was a small twiddley bird. Soaring over clouds like a kite she did. Singing the spring like a choir of silver bells. Little sunshine was truly talented, and truly amazing. A shadow of sorrow covered her, for no one looked at how she could shine.
But one person did look. Helped her see her might. Little Sunshine will always remember the one who flew with her. Through the...

An excellent read on some important pointers which I have highlighted from Net Bible! ☺
What is important is not the instrument in God’s hand, but the One in whose hand the instrument is being held.
Divine authority is inseparably linked with divine presence.
Many of us are waiting for God to give us a sign before we are willing to step out in faith. When God has made it sufficiently clear...

Wholehearted Trust Accepts Authority
“Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and do not lean on your own understanding.” (Proverbs 3:5)
How can I tell if my trust in the Lord is wholehearted? One way is this. Do I let the Bible overrule my own thinking? It says, “Do not lean on your own understanding.” So, do I agree with the Bible, or do I obey the Bible? If I merely agree with the Bible, then my positive response is...

Test The Spirit
Beloved, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits to see whether they are from God, for many false prophets have gone out into the world. (1 John 4:1)
Evil spirits are greatly at work in our society today. We need to test every spirits to make sure that they are of God. We test every spirits by praying. The good spirits will points us to God; the bad spirits will point us away from...

Who Are We Anknowledging - Ourselves OR God?
A friend sent me this verse and it was such a good reminder for my own soul.
Trust in the LORD with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding. In all your ways submit to him, and he will make your paths straight (Proverbs 3:5-6)
It made me think. How often have we trusted in the Lord with all our heart and lean not on our understanding? We claimed we love God but we do not trust...
