Worship is an endeavor to bring to God that which costs you something.

We are to extend forgiveness to others in the same way that God did to us: Unconditionally.

If Jesus can live in you and you are no different than the world around you, something got short circuited because Jesus makes a difference.

It's true the Holy Spirit alone can reproduce the character of our Lord Jesus, and we must always abide in Christ. But the Bible also makes us active partners in the process, and we must be diligent to do our part. "Be diligent to present yourself approved to God, a worker who does not need to be ashamed".

Names can be a doorway into knowing who a person is, and that is certainly true of God. A study of His names is a study of who He is and will be for you.

If you feel so lonely you could cry, take the focus off yourself. Think of how much God loves you, and find another person whom you can serve today.

But evil has been around since the Garden of Eden, and God's plan for victory was designed before the world began. The Bible tells us to fear no evil.
