divorce blessing men
Biblically defined marriage is a man and a woman for life, and so anything different than that is not God's ideal whether it be polygamy, whether it be divorce, whether it be a marriage between a man and a man or a woman and a woman. The ideal would be a man and a woman under a covenant of God's blessing.
blessing doubters needs
God's greatest blessings often come costumed as disasters. Any doubters need to do nothing more than ascend the hill of Calvary.
inspirational blessing grace
God's blessings are dispensed according to the riches of his grace, not according to the depth of our faith.
gratitude eye blessing
Gratitude lifts our eyes off the things we lack so we might see the blessings we possess.
giving-up blessing winning
For all its peculiarities and unevenness, the Bible has a simple story. God made man. Man rejected God. God won't give up until he wins him back. God will whisper. He will shout. He will touch and tug. He will take away our burdens; he'll even take away our blessings. If there are a thousand steps between us and him, he will take all but one. But he will leave the final one for us. The choice is ours. Please understand. His goal is not to make you happy. His goal is to make you His. His goal is not to get you what you want; it is to get you what you need.
running horse blessing
All I know is that the stable is empty, and the horse is gone. The rest I don't know. Whether [in the future] it be a curse or a blessing, I can't say. All we can see is a fragment. Who can say what will come next [and what is good or bad in the long run]?
desire glory god
God's glory is the big news of the Bible, and my desire is that it would be all about me, but really it's all about God's glory.
church reputation christ
I'm protective of the reputation of Christ and the church.
tough-times essentials engaged
Staying engaged with God is absolutely essential for getting through a tough time.
waiting knowing-god knows
Waiting is an expectant patience. It's a patience that says, "I don't know what God is going to do, but I know God is going to do something."
ideas people decision
Ggrace is God's best idea - it's His decision to ravage people by love, to rescue passionately, and to restore justly.
here-i-am thick-of-it wanted
There was a time I wanted to go into politics. And so all of a sudden, here I am, I guess. I'm in the thick of it.
christian men people
I would not have said anything about Mr. Trump, never - I would never have said anything if he didn't call himself a Christian. It'd be none of my business whatsoever to make any comments about his language, his vulgarities, his slander of people, but I was deeply troubled ... that here's a man who holds up a Bible one day, and calls a lady "bimbo" the next.
christian jesus kings
One person told me that Christians believe in a king. We believe in a King Jesus who oversees the affairs of mankind. Maybe we're reaching for an earthly king.
