So many of my thoughts and so much of my time are caught up in things that are important to the culture around me, but they aren't things that will matter in eternity.

We are to be a people of grace and truth as we wait for the coming of the Lord. We fight a spiritual battle with our unseen weapon: prayer.

When we plant God is able to make grace abound to us in all things at all times. He produces the fruit from the seeds we plant and He decides when and where it grows. What are you planting that maybe hasn't grown yet? Can you keep planting and believe God will make it from at the right time?

God wants to lead us daily. He wants our trust and our belief. Those are demonstrations of love. Rest waits for us inside trust.

Obedience requires that we release what we currently have before God fills our hands, and for a minute they look empty.

Where am I expecting that I know what God will say without really asking?

Less thinking and more thanking. I wrote this on my bathroom mirror. It's a safeguard for my mind this week.
