We Yearn to Know Jesus
A faith that Jesus exists and is with us, is what we are looking for. A faith in the unseen that heals us from the troubles of our world.
Changing Our Perspective to Find Our Truth
Life is like this a lot. Change is inevitable. Those who reframe the events of life quickly can move quickly. While others of us remain terrified of change. We stay rooted in the past and take on a cynical view of change.
Seeing and Accepting the Spiritual Winds of Faith
Life gets in the way of God, as it did with Lewis and Nicodemus. But God pursues us. We fall and do not accept the winds of God, but God’s chase is never ending.
Hearing the Wind and Turning Back to God
We all have something to do driven by the spiritual winds of our lives. This could be a troubled friend, a spiritual crisis or perhaps a difficult business situation, but eventually, we will have to turn back and confront our foe.
The Tides of Life
The tide will come in and then go out. As with our lives, there are highs and lows. But the tide will always come back in. Believing this is the core of faith.
A Life Redeemed
Miracles do not always happen the way we want, leaving us frustrated and in a prolonged period of grief. Sometimes through our shortcomings and other times for no apparent reason.
Doing What We See God is Doing
Regardless of our natural circumstances, Jesus tells us to act in a manner that we envision how God would act. He asks us to act without fear of loss, but through our hearts.
When You Move Beyond Your Fear, You Feel Free
Part of the value of the Gospels is that they lay out for us the lessons of life that Jesus wants us to follow. When we are stuck in trying to solve a problem and our method of solving isn’t working, we have to change the method.
The Promise of Jesus
While our losses will never be recovered, we never lose the love of God. The gift of God’s love doesn’t just occur because of our physical baptism; it occurs through our spiritual acceptance of God’s promises.
A Certain Faith that is Humble
I admire people who carry a certain faith. It is humble and sure. Despite life’s normal up and downs, they carry on unmoved by the tug of the world.
