How did you end up where you are today? When we reflect on that question, most of us could probably say that there have been some open doors, some closed doors, some blessings, and even some pain too. And whether you currently feel fulfilled in life or not, know this, God has placed you here, and He has a plan for your life. Let the Lord do His work in you, and trust Him in the journey.

If we want to really be free, we need to recognize that it can only come through Christ. It is found in being who we are meant to be and being conformed into the likeness of Christ.

There is a lot of hurt in the world. And in the midst of it, your neighbor probably isn’t questioning the existence of God but rather if God sees and if He cares. As Christians, we have the answers our neighbors are looking for. Make it a point to equip yourself and be ready to share the hope that you have in Christ.

Though skeptics may claim the Bible is not historically accurate, archaeology has refuted those claims time and time again. Archaeology brings the present and past together; it shows us that these people and events really did exist; and it enables us to touch the past and to walk the land where it all happened. These facts are knowable, and we encourage you to strengthen the defense of your faith by them.

Can modern science allow us to still believe that God created the Heavens and the earth? Though atheists would say no, scientific discoveries reveal otherwise. Earth and the entire universe are fine-tuned for life, and all of creation, in all of its complexities, points to our creator, God.

In a world where truth has become relative and lies of the enemy are entangling many, we must know what we believe in and we must have an intelligent response. Jesus is the way, the truth, and the life, and in Him, there is absolute truth. Choose to stand for and pursue absolute truth at all costs, and you will see yourself go from strength to strength.

In a culture that values busyness, we can often find ourselves drained. When we get to that point, we need to refresh, replenish, and hear the whisper of the Lord. It will give us a fresh perspective on life and strength for the journey.

On this Memorial Day, we honor the soldiers that have given their lives, and we see it as symbolism of Jesus Christ who gave His life for us. Therefore, let’s be good soldiers of endurance, and let’s concentrate on the things of God that really matter. Live to please the Lord because one day we’ll see Him face to face, the suffering will end, and we’ll be home.

As we wrap up our study on 1, 2, & 3 John, we want to anchor the truth of these scriptures in our hearts. God is the light that leads us and the love that holds us. From this foundation, we make a choice to get the sin out of our lives and allow the holiness through the Holy Spirit to rise up. And we step forward into the world to make a difference in the lives of others because the Lord first made a difference in ours.

Mothers are highly honored, and they can make an incredible influence. Though they aren’t perfect, they can help build godly habits, be a source of encouragement and comfort, and help their children in the process of owning their own faith.
