    Jesus knows our suffering, calls us to courageous faithfulness amid trials, and promises eternal life to those who endure with Him.

    Some of us walked in today with hearts that feel threadbare. Bills stack up. Doctors call back. Friends pull away. Tears fall in the dark, and worries pace the floor at 3 a.m. You wonder, Does Jesus see this? Does He know my name? Does He care about my pain? Smyrna asked the same questions. They ...read more

    Training For Reigning

    Contributed by Doug Morrell on Dec 5, 2005
    based on 17 ratings
     | 6,415 views

    We are never to feign happiness in pain, but if we are growing in Christ-likeness, we should be demonstrating a more eternal, positive perspective (considering it pure joy), because we are realizing that we are training for reigning.

    Depth of character is realized under pressure. Anyone can be a Christian when things go well, but how do you do when a little pressure, a little pain, a little discomfort, criticism or gossip, a sick child, loss of income, are applied? When your fruit is squeezed, what kind of juice comes forth? We ...read more

    People are often motivated primarily by fear or greed. But love is the best motivator.

    What motivates you? Cynical approach used in sales: Fear and greed. If we believe that we’re completely on our own in the world, then these two impulses serve as effective motivators. As followers of Christ know that there is a more powerful motivator: Love. At the same time, we can lose sight of ...read more
