Mercy In Action Series

Contributed by Duane Wente on Oct 13, 2025

"Hineni Shelacheni” — Send Me

Contributed by Don Aldrich Tamayo on Sep 10, 2024

The Road To Rest

Contributed by Terry Hovey on Feb 19, 2025

Jesus calls us to come and rest in Him. That word "Come" is a call to all who are weary and heavy-laden to come to Him. It's a compound word that means "here" and "come"--so, Jesus is giving His call to "Come here", to "Come here to Me!"

The Road to Rest Matthew 11:25-30 John Bunyan's classic analogy of the Christian life, Pilgrim's Progress follows the journey of the main character named Christian as he travels from the City of Destruction to the Celestial City, which describes the spiritual journey of a Christian towards ...read more

Give Me Some Space

Contributed by Darren Sirmans on Aug 27, 2011

As the power of God draws the heaven and the earth farther and farther apart, our main focus will be the love of Jesus to keep us closer together.

Read Luke 13:1-5 Because of his love, the love of Jesus; he will forgive us of anything, for the reason that love is just what God says it is. God is Love. And we should focus only on his love, since this reveals who God is. He will forgive us of anything, but speaking a word against the spirit of ...read more

Contributed by Stephan Brown on Mar 24, 2004

A simple reminder of the Love that God has for us--and what that Love means for us.

“Yes, Jesus Loves Me” If we had to describe the one true God in one word what would it be? We know so many of his attributes: all-powerful, all-knowing, all-present, just… But as John described him, “God is love.” (1 John 4:16) This doesn’t diminish his other attributes, but his love ...read more
