     | 26,089 views

    The example of the Master in being a comfort to people who have suffered loss.

    Actually, Jesus never had to conduct a funeral. No one ever died or stayed dead in His immediate presence. That’s because He is the resurrection and the life! (John 11:25) He did, however, come to the aid of those in sorrow over death, and by so doing left a great example for those of us who ...read more

    Just as Jesus restored hope to a mother who had lost her son through a miracle, so he can restore hope to parents who have or are in fear of losing their children today.

    There is a kind of death in family life today. Jesus offers unconditional compassion, used His authority to give life, and gives us as gifts to one another.

    One sweltering afternoon, on the dirty streets of a dangerous section of New Orleans, a man approached a woman with some papers in his hand. He asked Helen if she would agree to write letters to a man on death row at Angola prison. Helen agreed, rather absent-mindedly. She was used to people ...read more

    we spend far too much time trying to please everybody else, that we lose ourselves and our identities with God.

    Luke 7:11-23 You may be seated in the presence of the Lord. Verse 14 says, "Then Jesus went up and touched the coffin, and those carrying it stood still." I want to take a strange twist on this text and for a little bit of time talk from the subject as the Holy Spirit shall lead and guide of, "I’m ...read more

    ...he who has been forgiven much, loves much! Only the broken are useful for His purposes.

    Empty and Broken The road of my life is pocked with “empty and broken” moments, as I’m sure many of your lives have been.
