    An Envious Heart

    Contributed by Alan Smith on Apr 20, 2006
    based on 31 ratings
     | 14,059 views

    It’s been said that there are two kinds of people in the world -- those who are millionaires and those who would like to be. And that’s one example of jealousy, but it’s only a piece of it.

    Introduction: Those of you who are Muppet fans will know that one of Kermit the Frog’s most famous lines is, “It’s not easy being green.” But I beg to differ.

     | 13,204 views

    We need Him to open doors for us. We need Him to lift the weight that we can’t lift. We need Him to do things for us that we can’t do for ourselves. A simple question: Has the power of God been unleashed in your life?

    What if God showed up in ways in your life that simply defy human explanation? What if He did for you something that you could not do for yourself? What if the stamp of the supernatural was such a part of your life that everyone around you said, “Look at what’s happening for him. Look at what’s ...read more

    When we hear this passage, we usually picture ourselves as the son who transgressed our loving Father through our sinful lives. Whatever our own particular sins may be, we relate to, we long for, we even expect, a loving God who’ll throw his arms out wide

May the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart be acceptable to you, Lord, my rock and my redeemer. Amen.

Some of us have friends who would sell us for even less than Judas’ thirty pieces of silver if they ...read more
