Black Friday Bargain Fever - #6490
If you start to pray that three-open prayer, I guarantee that God will answer it. You don't have to say, "Lord, if it is Your will." It is His will. "Lord, open a door." "Lord, open their heart." "Lord, open my mouth." When you ask God for open doors, then open your eyes to look for them. They'll be there, all over the place, because God really wants you to tell the people you know about His Son.

Pilgrims at Your Table
Thanksgiving seems like just the right time to look at what I have and say out loud, "Earth stuff. Just earth stuff." To say thank you to God for those blessings - while loosening my grip on them to let God do whatever He wants with them. To be willing to leave where I'm comfortable to go wherever He leads. Even if it's a little ship, a big ocean and an unknown destination.

Who Stole the Cross? - #6479
We should be outraged! We've allowed Jesus' cross to be stolen from the center of our hearts, and our ministries, and our conversations. "The message of the cross," 1 Corinthians 1:18 says, "is...the power of God." I need to be as passionate about elevating that cross as the world and the devil are about eliminating it.

A Strong Sense of Season - #6472
I like what the Bible says in Colossians 3, "Whatever you do, do it with all your heart." And I really like what Jim Elliot, the missionary martyr said, "Wherever you are, be all there." See, things don't work as well when you do them "out of season." Each day, each week has seasons in your life. Well, do with all your heart what it's time to do at that moment and then God makes everything beautiful in its time.

Not In Charge After All - #6395
Times like these are wakeup calls, and we ought to pick up the phone. It might be God on the other end reminding us that He's God and we're not.

Holding On Tight - #6393
God has promised that He will hold on tight to the one He has saved. And I'll tell you, in the cascading waters of these uncertain times we're living in that's really good to know.

The Trouble With Wells - #6389
Jesus wants to make you secure by putting your life source inside you. He is enough. You're meant to draw your life from inside you, not from around you. The key to peace, the end of roller coaster living, is to depend on the spring of water welling up inside of you. And that's the identity Christ can give you.

The King's Speech - #6366
You know, so often I have failed to deliver the message of Jesus because I was afraid of what might happen to me if I told them. But isn't the greater fear what will happen to them if I don't tell them?

Saturated But Not Strong - #6363
You know, maybe it's time now for us to see that our roots need to be growing, not just our leaves. Do you know some things about the Lord that you didn't know a month ago? Have you given Him some new ground that He didn't have a month ago? Are you praying in fresh, new ways? Are you going by the book and not by your feelings?

Young Love, Young Letdown - #6357
for too many, Valentine's Day and anniversaries are just reminders of how disappointing human love has been. Even a great love fails to fill that gaping hole in our heart. It's just too big for any human to fill. The hole in our heart has Jesus' name on it. In the Bible's words we "were created by Him and for Him" (Colossians 1:16). And only He has the un-loseable love that will anchor us and complete us.
