The only one qualified to throw a stone . . . didn’t.

From John 8:4-7:  “They said to Him, ‘Teacher, this woman was caught in the very act of committing adultery.  Now in the law Moses commanded us to stone such women.  Now what do You say?’  They said this to test Him, so that they might have some charge to bring against Him.  Jesus bent down and wrote with His finger on the ground.  When they kept on questioning Him, He straightened up and said to them, ‘Let anyone among you who is without sin be the first to throw a stone at her.'”

God’s desire is that we grow in faith as we walk with Him.  Faith is not merely a one-time event through which we were saved; rather, it’s a continuous way of life from the point of salvation forward.

From 2 Thessalonians 1:3-4:  “We must always give thanks to God for you, brothers and sisters, as is right, because your faith is growing abundantly and the love of every one of you for one another is increasing.  Therefore we ourselves boast of you among the churches of God for your steadfastness and faith during all your persecutions and the afflictions that you are enduring.”

While peace and tranquility are present somewhere, we just need to seek it out . . . no matter the season.

Rising to God’s Way

From Matthew 6:25:  “Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or what you will drink, or about your body, what you will wear.  Is not life more than food and the body more than clothing?”

Sinking in despair

Worries adding up

Christ calls us forward

Grace shall be enough

 

Fearing tomorrow

Worries might return

Christ speaking with truth

Hold His righteous hand

 

Searching for freedom

Worries seek backdoor

Christ shall strengthen faith

Hope waits to mature

 

Praying each morning

Worries bundled up

Christ bearing them all

Darkness transformed now

 

Finding blessed love

Worries now swept free

Christ’s mercy takes flight

Rising to God’s way

From Matthew 6:33-34:  “But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well.  So do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will bring worries of its own.  Today’s trouble is enough for today.”

Because the Christian has the Lord Himself dwelling within, the potential for inner strength is unlimited.  Only the indwelling, empowering Christ can give someone that much confidence.

From Psalm 107:9:  “For He satisfies the thirsty, and the hungry He fills with good things.”
