From 2 Corinthians 5:6-7:  “So we are always confident, even though we know that while we are at home in the body we are away from the Lord—for we walk by faith, not by sight.”

Living by faith in Christ

Conscious of His nearness

Walking daily with trust

Spirit breathes with clearness

 

Groaning from burdens’ weight

Confident in His Word

Giving all to Jesus

Faith’s insight undeterred

 

Aiming to please Father

Answers found in Son’s love

Pursuing duty’s faith

Called to seek Him above

 

Receiving mercy’s touch

Inspiration from grace

Believing divine truth

Faith’s eternal birthplace

 

Being born from above

Behold, journey awaits

Embracing Lord’s judgment

Redemption’s faithful date

From 2 Corinthians 5:14:  “For the love of Christ urges us on, because we are convinced that one has died for all; therefore all have died.”

As we walk with Jesus, He strengthens our faith so that our steps will carry us through life’s darkness into the light of God.

Adversity is not only a bridge to a deeper relationship with God, but it’s also the path to freedom, healing, and maximum usefulness.

From Hebrews 12:11-13:  “Now, discipline always seems painful rather than pleasant at the time, but later it yields the peaceful fruit of righteousness to those who have been trained by it.  Therefore lift your drooping hands and strengthen your weak knees and make straight paths for your feet, so that what is lame may not be put out of joint but rather be healed.“

We can best measure life by what we share with others, not by the accumulation of stuff.

Monday Memories: Heavenly Message

When I stumble

My body tumbles

Weakness fills me

Not worthy to see

Attempting to move

Just not in my groove

People walk right by

None saying even “hi”

Ignoring me there

Silence never fair

Feeling so much alone

Picking up my phone

Finding short text to read

Responding to my needs

Standing up now

Kneeling to bow

The message sustains

No, I’m not to blame

“My brother, rise up thee

Now, always follow me”

Jesus!

When life feels more like a battle, always remember that Jesus marches with you.

No one cares how much we know unless they also know how much we care.

From Galatians 5:13:  “For you were called to freedom, brothers and sisters, only do not use your freedom as an opportunity for self-indulgence, but through love become enslaved to one another.”

Phillip Graham Ryken (born 1966) is an American pastor and theologian.  He currently serves as the president of Wheaton College in Illinois.

From Psalm 145:8:  “The Lord is gracious and merciful, slow to anger and abounding in steadfast love.”

Blessing forever, God above

Kneeling, bending every knee

Praising His greatness, Amen!

Justice sown from righteous decrees

 

Breathing with hope’s newfound freedom

Witnessing God’s mighty moves

Praising daily in worship

Mercy arrives, His Son approves

 

Riding donkey, comes humble King

Tasting His merciful grace

Praising faith’s new covenant

Heaven’s goodness, let all embrace

 

Commanding nations, take notice

Setting every sinner free

Praising repeal of darkness

Throughout earth’s many lands and seas

 

Sounding faith’s endless trumpet

Protecting with blessed light

Praising God’s lasting greatness

Eternal daylight covers night
