Listen to and obey God. Let his word represented in the Bible and in Jesus season your words, mold your character, and direct your actions.

Although it requires sacrifice, empathizing and interceding for others can make a significant difference for them and you.

No matter how busy, weary, or numb you may feel, you can be strengthened, encouraged, and revitalized by answering Jesus’ loving call to come away with him.

Consider the costs that come with the potential benefits of various societal developments and especially the costs and benefits of living with God or without him.

God pricelessly values you, unconditionally accepts you, and deeply loves you. Trust Jesus to inherit all God designed for you to be and to have. Then share that inheritance by valuing, accepting, and loving others.

God gives life. Trust and rest in him for he is good, right, and loving. Resist the lure of what seems to give life and pleasure apart from him, for it only ends up stealing, killing, and destroying.

Turn from your way to Jesus’ way. Trust and obey him for he has already won the battle you are fighting.

Look to Jesus, Love Incarnate, who graciously became the sacrificial Passover Lamb who took upon himself the sin of the world so anyone who trusts him can truly live and not die.

Abide in Jesus by trusting and obeying him and you will enjoy the serenity of unity and completeness with God that transcends the trespasses of broken people and the trials of this fallen world.

Be someone people can count on, by doing what you say you will.
