April 7, 2017 – Belief

I do believe. But sometimes I hear comments and witness moments that shake this belief.  “What if?” . . . “Perhaps” . . . “Could it be”, filters into my conscience and I devote a lot of time exploring these subjects to test my heart. But, as I explore, what stays with me is this: no other situation in my life, no other moment, no other belief brings me a truer peace than the realization that God is my supreme creator. He is capable of anything, anything at all. And when I place my trust in this belief, and in my relationship with Him, He reveals marvelous things to me.  This is what I trust, this is where my heart is.

“For you have said, ‘My teaching is pure, and I am innocent in your eyes.’ “But would that God might speak, and open His lips against you, and show you the secrets of wisdom! For sound wisdom has two sides. Job 11:4-6

Friday, April 12, 2013 - Wisdom

Many times we find ourselves without the right words to say. More times than not, I think of the perfect response well after the conversation has ended with no chance of getting to express these thoughts to anyone. Yet, we can rest well knowing our true wisdom is simply following the direction of Christ. When we can truthfully say that we acted as Jesus would and set an example of His values and integrity, then we have given a greater message than words can ever convey.

Follow my example, as I follow the example of Christ. - 1 Corinthians 11:1
