The pandemic has been traumatic for the whole world. Let's take a look at where we are, and where we are going from here.
Because of our union with Jesus, we are invited to live with him and let him live through us.
Jesus has offered to live his life through us. A result of that is we can have contentment. Satisfaction.
Knowing about God is a different experience from knowing God. Do you know God?
Join us we recall the life and death of Jesus, and why we can shout with praise "He is risen!"
God cares about your heart. What does the world care about?
Going deep in the Psalms to see about God's love for us.
It's been a minute since we visited this question: let's talk about it.
Continuing our quest through 1 John - Do not love the world.It is alluring and appears to give life, but its counterfeit. The lust of the eyes, the lust of the flesh and the pride of life - these things do not bring real life, they bring addictions.The Father has real life for you. The things of the world pass away.

Continuing in 1 John - John talks to us about growing up.Dear Children - Young Men - FathersThere is a progression in all things. God is the God of Process. His intention is that you would grow up. Actually, its an invitation.
Continuing in 1 John - we have a NEW command. But it is really the same command. It is a command that brings life and freedom to all. It is the command to love one another.In our social climate, the goal is to stop hating, although that is a good goal, and you should do that. The goal is to love! Indifference is still hate. Lack of compassion is still hate. Isolation is still hate. Jesus is the perfect example of love - follow him!
We continue our quest through 1 John. Walking in the light with Jesus means that we will live as Jesus did. Isn't that a crazy idea?But the followers of Jesus always become like him and live like him. This gift is not only for them, it's for you too!
We continue our quest through 1 John, we are reminded that we must walk in the light..Jesus is light.He invites us to follow him, walking in the light, which brings joy and righteousness.
1 John 1We take a look at what John says about walking in the light
It's Resurrection Sunday! Easter! Can you believe what Jesus has done for us?
All of the other stories about Jesus were historical. But not this one, it is a story from the future. One that I long for.
Looking at several stories we see that Jesus was alive spiritually. He had a spirit and could interact with the spirit world. What a great gift!His apostles had this same ability. It is also meant for us. We have been given the Holy Spirit - bound to our spirit, so that we can be in touch with the spiritual world.
In another great story about Jesus, he healed a bunch of people one evening. The next morning, he went off to a solitary place to recover. His disciples were looking all over for him, and when they found him, they said "a great group of people are waiting for you back at the house". His response was classic "Let's go someplace else".Jesus was a master of soul care. He loved people and he helped many. But it was always a priority of his to take care of his own soul first.
Jesus just changes everything. He especially changed our relationship with God. In Jesus, we are to live in full union with God. Unity. Jesus is in the Father. We are in Jesus. Jesus is in us. We are one.That changes everything in the world.
Why did Jesus come? Like he said, he came to proclaim freedom for the prisoners and sight for the blind. To set the oppressed free! Jesus came to bring restoration to all things.
As we look toward a new year, we have real hope for the future. Not wishful thinking, but promises from the living God. Promises that he keeps. We have hope!
One of the great stories about Jesus is about his birth. Born in a manager because there was no room at the inn.The birth was announced to some shepherds who nice society did not have any room for. But God had room for both Jesus and the shepherds. And it was a glorious announcement.
As we continuing telling stories about Jesus, we find many stories about restoration. Jesus restores things. And at the same time, we see in these stories that Jesus was limited to the form of a human, and as a result, his life was at risk. God intervened in a dream and told Joseph to run to Egypt. Joseph heard and obeyed. The life of Jesus was spared...
Telling stories is a great way to get to know someone. Telling stories about Jesus is so revealing. Jesus is the best! Jesus is so much fun.
The best stories are always about Jesus. In this story we see that Jesus fiercely defends his people.
You've never met anyone like JesusIn this story we see ways that Jesus is so gracious to us. Here, he fed the people with 2 loaves and a few fish, that did not even belong to him. And they picked up more leftovers than they started with.
