It's true that every road leads to God. But only one way leads to a pleasant encounter with Him.

The seed of God's Word won't grow to fruitfulness without pruning for rest, quiet, and calm

No matter how long we have been walking with Jesus, we need to hear again, do not love the world.

We take hold of Christ as his words take hold us.

Scripture is profitable for training in righteousness. No one succeeds at the highest level in sports without working out. No one makes it in music without lots of practice. No one excels in scholarship without years of study. And no one makes it far in the school of holiness without hours and days and years in the word. You and I simply will not mature as quickly, minister as effectively, or live as gloriously without immersing ourselves in the Scriptures. We need the Bible if we are to be competent Christians.

As the culture war rages on, Lord give us wisdom to see the difference between defending our rights and protesting our slights.

Those trapped in sin will not normally thank you for pointing out the darkness in their lives.
