writing godly people
My parents, they were good, godly people, but they never said, You need to write.
writing guy other-guys
I co-pastor now, so I preach six months, then another guy preaches six months. So that's really why I'm preparing for January, because I'll finish in June; then I'll be writing and doing other projects for the rest of the year.
writing people singing
If you get a lot of good feedback from people, thats a sign that you have a strength or gift in writing, if not ... try singing.
country writing boys
I noticed people would read these short articles I was assigned to write for our church bulletin and they would say, Boy, thats good stuff. I got letters from people around the country saying, Thats really good. And I thought, Is it really?
people sovereignty sovereignty-of-god
What I'm urging people to do is trust in the sovereignty of God.
people grace identity
I wanted to talk about how grace in and of itself changes us. It changes the way we treat other people, the way we view our lives, the way we treat our purpose and our eternal identity.
perspective people trying
From my perspective, most of my life has been dealing with the day-to-day, kitchen-to-bedroom-to-living-room-to-garage life with people. Most people are just trying to figure out how to love the people in their world, to love their God and to deal with some of these questions about God.
love inspirational powerful
A woman's heart should be so hidden in God that a man has to seek Him just to find her.
christian today fruit
Be patient. God is using today's difficulties to strengthen you for tomorrow. He is equipping you. The God who makes things grow will help you bear fruit.
full-of-yourself
God can't fill you when you are already full of yourself.
kindness self giving
Love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control. To these I commit my day. If I succeed, I will give thanks. If I fail, I will seek his grace. And then, when this day is done, I will place my head on my pillow and rest.
differences grace-and-mercy decision
There is a difference between grace and mercy. Mercy is the decision of God not to punish us. But grace is the decision of God to save and bless us.
love-is anchors heaven
You have a God who hears you, the power of love behind you, the Holy Spirit within you, and all of heaven ahead of you. If you have the Shepherd, you have grace for every sin, direction for every turn, a candle for every corner and an anchor for every storm. You have everything you need.
church deeds shows
The church is never a place to show off. Do your good deeds quietly. Serve; don't seek to be seen
