Whirligig
As Christians, we experience whirligigs in our spiritual lives from time to time.
Holy Spirit
Good Soil
Seeds can be sown correctly, spaced correctly, fertilized correctly, but without good soil they will never germinate, they will never grow and produce fruit. So, what is “good soil?”
A Christian’s Default
Let us not withhold the Spirit. Let’s allow His fruit to sweeten everyone we meet.
Withstanding Compromise
We must not think the way worldly people want us to think. We must not act the way worldly people want us to act.
Stuck in the In-Betweens
We must open ourselves up to God for His healing to enter us, and for our praise to go to Him.
The Quantum of Scripture
The book of Philippians provides us with a tremendous example of the “Quantum of Scripture.”
God Sides with You
Our spiritual “deflector shields” (nod to Star Trek) collapse from exhaustion, repetition, and alienation.
The Spirit of the LORD Rushed
God was eager for David to reach an age where God’s mantle for the covering, protection, and revival of Israel could be placed on him, His chosen king. I think that is why the original Hebrew word is “rushed.”
Giving Thanks
No, for most of my Christian life the best that conspicuous consumption could stir up against Thanksgiving was a turkey and pumpkin pie.
You put to death the deeds of the body
The ways of the world will text us, Instagram us, and TikTok us, but we owe nothing to them.
