Many biblical passages teach that we're not saved by our own efforts but by the grace of God alone. But the same passages also tell us good works are an essential evidence of the salvation experience. We're not saved by good works, but for good works. It begins with God's grace, and it's sustained by his grace as you shape your character by what you do as you cross the bridge.

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

God loves you as though you are the only person in the world, and He loves everyone the way He loves you.

Integrity is keeping a commitment even after circumstances have changed.

The truth is: We serve a generous God. He delights in giving us opportunities beyond our capabilities. He has promised to equip us, and remain with us through each bend in the road.

Though it may seem overdue, righteousness is always rewarded. Don't be impatient with God. He'll never forget to reward your efforts for Him.

Only by being both deity and humanity could Jesus Christ bridge the gap between where God is.
