Romans 12:11-13 Don’t burn out; keep yourselves fueled and aflame. Be alert servants of the Master, cheerfully expectant. Don’t quit in hard times; pray all the harder. Help needy Christians; be inventive in hospitality. This is not about physical “burn out”, it’s a spiritual “burn out”. When we weary, we can be on fire for God.Continue reading “Don’t Burn Out”

Worn
Hebrews 5:14 But solid food belongs to those who are of full age, that is, those who by reason of use have their senses exercised to discern both good and evil. I find that every time I believe that I’ve got things figured out, there is a lesson to be learned. I don’t know ifContinue reading “Worn”
Welcome
1 Peter 4:9-11 Everything in the world is about to be wrapped up, so take nothing for granted. Stay wide-awake in prayer. Most of all, love each other as if your life depended on it.

Gratitude
1 Thes 5:16-18 Rejoice always, pray continually, give thanks in all circumstances; for this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus.

Seek
Deuteronomy 4:29 “But from there you will seek the LORD your God, and you will find Him if you seek Him with all your heart and with all your soul.” Today? What does today hold? Do I have any control of my day? Will I make a difference for good? Will I seek the LordContinue reading “Seek”
Be Still
Psalms 46:10 Be still, and know that I am God. “Be still, and know that I am God”. In our busyness we must STOP! We will never hear His voice calling out to us, if our minds are full of the things/busyness of this world. Sit back, take a deep breath and empty our mindsContinue reading “Be Still”
