To those of you who might have been looking forward to my post today on practical ways each one of us—as Christ’s bride—can give Him our pure and undivided devotion, I apologize. That post will be postponed until next week. That is, if I’m here on planet earth to write it. If you are a Christian […]
Inside-Out Living
Undivided Devotion to Christ
In a recent blog post titled “How to Tune Into God’s Live Love Stream,” I shared a Scripture that clarifies for Christians how they can hear God’s voice and experience His love in tangible ways. A Scripture that answers the question, What is Father God’s heart’s desire for those who are in His Son? This […]
Pure Devotion to Christ
In my last three posts, “The Secret to Loving,” “How to Tune into God’s Live Love Stream,” and “Simple Devotion to Christ,” I’ve been laying the foundation for the believer in Christ’s love life: “The Secret to Loving” The authentic cycle of the expression of love in a Christian’s life begins with the believer consistently […]
Simple Devotion to Christ
I would like to apologize to those who were tuned in at noon (CST) with your paper and pen (or journal) in hand, ready to participate in today’s post. “Life happened” once again—when I made other plans. I hope you will forgive me. In my last post, “How to Tune Into God’s Live Love Stream,” I […]
The Secret to Loving
I am utterly convinced that, in order for a Christian to express the authentic love of God on a regular basis, he or she must consistently receive and enjoy (not earn) His genuine, unique love for his or her individual heart. In short, the secret to loving is living loved in Christ. Makes perfect sense, […]
This Ghost Is Way Friendlier Than Casper!
Do you remember when there were only three TV channels and Saturday mornings were reserved for watching cartoons while eating your favorite breakfast cereal? One of my favorite cartoons was ABC’s Casper the Friendly Ghost. Casper wasn’t like the other members of his family and his friends. He didn’t like scaring people at all. In […]
Christian, Which Spiritual Season Are You In?
I am so grateful to live in a part of the world that experiences the four distinct seasons of spring, summer, autumn, and winter. Autumn is my favorite because of the cooler temperatures and the gorgeous foliage. Just as we experience the changing natural seasons, we are also subject to changing experiential seasons in our […]
Christian, Heaven Is Here & Now!
Christian, what if I told you that you are already in Heaven—that you don’t have to wait until you pass from this life to go there? I understand if your brain is going tilt-tilt right now. Mine did too when I first heard this sounds-too-good-to-be-true news. But then again, the gospel of grace in Jesus Christ […]
Why Every Christian Should Be Doing the Happy Dance
I double dog dare you to try to sit still while listening to “Happy Dance,” the most fun-loving song on MercyMe’s Lifer album. It might even be the most fun-loving song in all of Christendom. (It would get my vote!) And if this ditty doesn’t get you dancing, there’s a good chance that you are wearing concrete […]
Don’t Throw in the Towel!
Have you ever felt like a featherweight in this boxing match called life? Are you being pounded by a daunting heavyweight opponent, also known as the pain and suffering that come from living in this fallen world? If so, you don’t want to miss this post on the message in “We Win,” the seventh track on […]
