Coming back

In 2nd John v. 12 the author writes a letter and shares at the end how he would prefer to meet face to face. In today's society the art is being lost of in-person interactions. Yet we are called to engage, face to face, in the Body of Christ.

Numbers 6:22-27 speaks of the blessing declared by Moses to the Jewish people. May our effects be that of Moses, to speak life and blessings everywhere we walk and work.

Jesus created all people to show forth his glory and that means people of every race, ethnicity, economic status, and location. Today we dive into the thought behind Mark 16:15 of preaching the Good News to all "creation".

God, the Father, sees you and looks after you even in trying situations. As a father looks after his own child, God looks after you. Hosea 11:1-4 shows us the love and care God has for you and I.

In the face of a global recession you can have peace. Haggai 2:6-9 states that all economic systems are the Lord's and he will establish you and bring you peace.

This week we look at Psalm 18:1 and how love is the basis of a relationship with Jesus.

This week I read Proverbs 20:25 and discuss the holiness of vows.

My definition of integrity is the intentional effort of the soul to achieve righteousness. This week we explore 1 Peter 2:12 in terms of how to maintain integrity within our own lives.

Jesus was the Messiah, the Savior of the World, and the King of the Jews. In Matthew 4:8-11 Jesus is tempted to make this dream reality. Perhaps he was disappointed with his life plan and how it all turned out. Sometimes we are too. I explore Jesus' temptation in the desert with the view of how to handle disappointment.
