Answers to prayer have to be on God's schedule, not ours. He hears us pray, and He answers according to His will in His own time.

Prayer is the hard-work business of Christianity, and it nets amazing results.

Against the backdrop of people who avoid work, cut corners, and do half-hearted jobs, a diligent man stands out. Practicing diligence is an excellent way to stand out for Christ at home, in the workplace, and even at church. Today, complete each one of your tasks, however big or small, with diligence.

The Bible says that love is a responsibility. We are commanded to love. God doesn't ask us if we feel like it, He tells us in His Word that it is our responsibility to love.

The man who loves his wife above all else on earth gains the freedom and power to pursue other noble, but lesser, loves.

Above all else, He loves you and chose to measure that love out not in words, but in blood. He loves you enough to give you the greatest gift conceivable. Would such a love allow you to suffer without purpose?

If you face a challenging task from God today, ask yourself, "How would Jesus handle this?" Then go and do the same.
