Stay in the SpiritWhen we get stuck in our routines we can miss what the Lord is showing us. Our God has always met people in unexpected places with his life changing presence. Jesus is the good news we need, and the hope the world needs. May our lives be vessels of his Hope!
Hospitality is a consistent theme throughout the Bible. But Biblical hospitality is more than just being nice to people. As followers of Jesus, it is a prophetic act.
We're busy, the world is noisy, and somehow in it all we're supposed to hear God speak. Is it that important? Did any other notable characters in scripture do it? And even if we wanted to try, how would that look?
In this Advent Season, we are called to Prepare the Way for the Lord, not just into our world, but into our lives. As we sing in Joy to the World, we receive our king, when every heart prepares him room. What has been cluttering your heart space lately? What does it mean for you to prepare him room in your heart this season?
We can't go our own way when we are following the Way of Jesus. We must follow the King's way. So which way will you go?
Why should Christians serve? Do we really have to? What does Jesus say about it? Spoiler alert: it's not convenient nor comfortable, and probably won't feel like you're living your best life.
How we see life and handle the "stuff" in our lives is a direct reflection of our hearts' desires. Are we focused on the temporal or the eternal?
Jesus told us the Holy Spirit's work is to bring God's power and presence into our daily lives. Times of grief and mourning are part of life and Jesus invites us to bring these things to him. In meeting us in our sorrow, the Lord also reveals the joy of the new life he offers through his grace. What griefs do you need to bring to the Lord? Where do you think the Holy Spirit might be working to bring you new beginnings?
Reformation Sunday is when we celebrate Martin Luther rediscovering the heart of the Gospel - justification by faith alone. That's good news! But is it still good news today?
