True fulfillment happens when you fill your soul not your life. The story of the Good Samaritan shows how selflessness triumphs over selfishness and fills our soul.

You don't fear the size of your giants when you have faith in the size of your God. This is what Caleb and Joshua knew when God asked them to spy out the Promised Land. Where fear sees opposition, Faith sees opportunity.

Jesus didn't give the payment for our sin, He was the payment for our sin. The temple veil that separated God from mankind was torn when Jesus died on the cross. No longer was mankind separated from a holy God, Christ's death removed the barrier and His resurrection brought us back into relationship with God.

There is a purpose to your path. In just a few days, Jesus would become the Savior of the world, but He started this process by riding into Jerusalem on a donkey. Just as Jesus embraced the uncomfortable journey to the cross, we must embrace the uncomfortable journey we sometimes experience.

When I have scripture flowing into my mind, it changes what flows out of my mouth. Just as a fresh water spring gives life and refreshes those around it, so our tongue ought to encourage and give life to those in its orbit.

Have you ever thought about filtering what you say? Maybe filtering out gossip, complaints, and criticisms. The book of James gives us insight on how to do that and the difference it could make in our life.

Controlled words indicate a controlled life. In James 3, our tongue is pictured as something that can influence the direction of our life. Our sin nature is constantly trying to assert control over our words, but God wants to direct our tongue so He can guide our life.

God's principles lead to God's peace. In Matthew 25, Jesus tells a story to help teach on wise stewardship. Jesus' teaching on finances is surprisingly practical and applicable to people today.

What you give on earth you gain in heaven. Jesus spoke of Generosity when He called His disciples to watch the widow woman give two pennies into the treasuries. Generosity allows us to take temporary things and use them for eternal purposes.

God doesn't misuse what you give to Him, He multiplies what you give to Him. Jesus promised in Matthew 6 that God provides for and blesses those who put Him first. When you put God first in your finances, He promises to provide for your needs. As a father who provides for his children, God will provide for you.
