God is love (1 John 4:8, 16) and God is sovereign (Acts 4:24). Those biblical truths must define our response to every circumstance in life.

God cares about you and your needs. Bring them to Him in a spirit of worship and thanksgiving, knowing that He is mindful of your place in His creation.

If you are a Christian, your search for approval should be over.

Every decision we make has to be evaluated in light of our life-changing commitment to being a servant of Christ and His kingdom.

Even though it has been nearly 2,000 years since Christ's first coming, His second coming is certain.

The Lord's Prayer reminds us that God longs for His people to communicate with Him, not just in church on Sunday, but wherever we are and whatever our need.

Throughout Jesus' ministry, He took time away from the crowds and even His disciples to pray by Himself. Jesus modeled the importance of not only serving God with our actions but of being still and drawing close to God to renew our souls.

In today's America He (Jesus) has moved from the central figure of world history to source material for late-night comics and pundits who would not dare treat other religious leaders with such disrespect.

If Jesus can live in you and you are no different than the world around you, something got short circuited because Jesus makes a difference.
