Now, as we consider how ...read more

    In the midst of our sadness and anger and guilt and anxiety and shock which we can roll up into one word ‘grief,’ we must call on God and give our grief over to Him allowing Him to bind up our hearts with His strength and His peace.

    It is not enough to have great potential or show great promise. It is what you do with that potential that makes all the difference. A good beginning does not guarantee a good end. End your life well, to the glory of God.

    Whatever we start, do it well and end it well. Put your heart in it and do a good job. It is more important how we end than how well we start. • This is so true of Saul’s life. He started well, but did not end well. • We are going to read about his death today (1 Sam 31), and ...read more
