I fear that for the most part people are worshiping worship rather than worshiping God and communing with Him.

Labor in the Lord is not in vain. Labor outside the Lord may well be in vain. We labor in the Lord when we labor using His enablement for His glory.

One thing is certain: the call of Christ is always a promotion. Were Christ to call a king from his throne to preach the gospel to some tribe of aborigines, that king would be elevated above anything he had known before. Any movement toward Christ is ascent, and any direction away from Him is down.

The veil of money has never been about how much money you have but about how much money has you.

A spiritual kingdom lies all about us, enclosing us, embracing us, altogether within reach of our inner selves, waiting for us to recognize it. God Himself is here awaiting our response to His presence. This eternal world will come alive to us the moment we begin to reckon upon its reality.

We have been snared in the coils of a spurious logic which insists that if we have found Him we need no more seek Him.

It's time for us to rise up, get out of the rut and routine, and begin to take our Christian faith seriously.
