Begin with Reflection

by

Lost in thought

As we begin a new year, I urge you to take the time to reflect on your life to determine how you might more effectively carry out the commands of Christ. Reflection is not something that most of us do well, if at all. In our hurried lifestyles, we spare little time for introspection that could lead to improvement in the areas of life most important to us. Every January brings a fresh and exciting new start brimming with possibilities; these opportunities will pass us by unless we carefully pause and consider how we might make the best use of them. So set aside an hour or two this week to spend in prayer, asking God to reveal aspects of your life where you could serve Him better. I think you’ll find it to be some of the most useful time you have ever spent.

Unstoppable Passion

by

The New Year is upon us; are you ready to make this the year in which you will shine for Christ like never before? How will this year be different from the last? In what ways will you dedicate yourself to more fully serve God? What will you do differently to allow yourself to make the impact God created you to make on this world? These are huge questions, and if you haven’t started thinking about them until this moment, there’s a good chance that trying to answer them in the hours remaining in this year will seem more than just a little bit daunting.

In Another Life

I realize there may be some of you reading this blog who think it all sounds well and good, and you’d really like to commit everything to Jesus, but you’ve wasted years of your life already and are now in a situation that prohibits you from leading a life that looks like Christ. Perhaps you tell yourself that in another life you would have done great things for the Kingdom, you would have been the most committed and devoted follower of Christ this world had ever seen; in another life… Meanwhile you have what’s left of this life to decide what you will do for the sake of God and His glory.

Giving

I debated on writing a specific Christmas post this year. On the one hand, it’s what Christian bloggers are supposed to do; I’m pretty sure there’s a rule book somewhere that covers stuff like this. On the other hand, this blog is about living unconventionally in a way that flies in the face of the establishment. But when it comes down to it, the core of the message I write about is the amazing gift of salvation through Jesus Christ our Lord. This gift would have never occurred had it not first been for the birth of a Savior into our world; we would be lost without hope had God not sent His Son to be born as a baby over 2,000 years ago. There is no cross without the manger, no redemption without revelation.

Satisfied With Jesus?

by

Is Jesus enough to satisfy your every need and longing? It may seem like a silly question to those of us who are followers of Christ because we have been taught and conditioned to instinctively respond to such a question with a resounding, “Yes, of course!” But in the darkest moments of your life, at the times when you are feeling most selfish, abandoned or mistreated – is Jesus enough to fulfill your every wish and desire?
