     | 4,392 views

    One part of us acts as if God works FOR us…. And of course we can get a bit frustrated that He’s not showing up to work.

    Does God want to work with you? How we answer that question likely reflects a lot of how we live our lives. Our actual response can reflect two unfortunate tendencies: • One part of us acts as if God works FOR us…. And of course we can get a bit frustrated that He’s not showing up to work. ...read more

    Hands open may be a handshake or a salute, signalling friendship or respect. Just as those gestures affirmed Saul, we also must approach others by leading them to safety and by affirming their potential.

Well, of course, it would mean different things for different kinds of open hands. There is more than one way to be ...read more
