The glory we experience in Christ’s kingdom will include perfect health, healed relationships, and eternal joys that far outweigh the passing trials of this earth.

Until the Lord returns, there will be battles for his servants to fight in a fallen world of sinners like us. There will also be blessings to prepare and strengthen us for the battles.

Sometimes we think it is very “nice” of us to welcome those unlike us into our fellowship. The Bible actually says that it is necessary for us to do so in order to fulfill Christ’s mission for our churches.

Our relationship with God never depends on the sufficiency of our goodness, but on grace we cannot earn and do not deserve.

God expects us to use every weapon of his provision to fight our spiritual opposition and claim the rescue he promises.

We train children best when we treasure how they were made for God, and how we were made for them.

The highest honor desired of those claimed by grace is to know God takes joy from the ways we have used his resources to share his heart. 

Our hope is the firm confidence that our future is secured by One who loved us enough to send his Son to secure us for his eternal home.

Because the Holy Spirit is interceding for us, God answers our prayers better than we can ask them.

God’s love for us is the soil in which our love for him grows.
