Jesus displays for us in person the compassion of God for his suffering saints. God in the flesh is able to demonstrate for us what God in heaven feels when we cry out to him in moments of grief or sorrow.
There are certain theological systems of belief that hold to the idea that God is unmoved

It is a common temptation of Satan to make us give up the reading of the Word and prayer when our enjoyment is gone; as if it were of no use to read the Scriptures when we do not enjoy them, and as if it were no use to pray when we have no spirit of prayer. The truth is that in order to enjoy the

Henry Wingblade used to say that Christian personality is hidden deep inside us. It is unseen, like the soup carried in a tureen high over a waiter’s head. No one knows what’s inside--unless the waiter is bumped and he trips! Just so, people don’t know what’s inside us until we’ve been

There is no God. All of the wonders around us are accidental. No almighty hand made a thousand billion stars. They made themselves. No power keeps them on their steady course. The earth spins itself to keep the oceans from falling off toward the sun. Infants teach themselves to cry when they are

Some of us are like the preacher who was on a diet and prayed as he drove to work- "Now, Lord if it is your Will for me not to have any donuts this morning You make sure there are no parking places in front of the donut shop." And he later said, "I ate the donuts because there were two places right

It is not possible for us to bless God, because the one who is the “Blesser” is greater than the one who is blessed. So, how can we bless God? It begins when God blesses us, then we in turn bless Him for His goodness to us. When we bless God, we are giving

There is no wonder that God considered us worthy dying for, when one realises how intimately He knows us! His love for you is so deep that he has numbered every hair on your head – and renumbers them when some fall out (Matthew 10:30)!

The world says “Take control and be in charge—conquering is the key.”
MY FATHER SAYS “I know the plans I have for you—give it up and follow Me.”
The world says I should love things and use people.
