Doubt

October 12, 2020 by Tim Sherfy

Never let the devil convince you that you are less than who God says you are. You are created in the image of God, designed to be holy and in perfect union with your Father in Heaven (John 17:21). Never doubt that fact. In the beginning, God created men and women in His image (Genesis 1:27). Yet we constantly see ourselves as lacking what we need to succeed or enjoy life.

Satan plants thoughts in our minds like we aren’t attractive enough, smart enough, skinny enough, talented enough, wealthy enough, and on it goes. Before believing any of those lies, recognize that as an image-bearer of God, you are more than enough. You have all the talent and resources needed to become the person God created you to be.

God Will Provide

April 27, 2020 by Tim Sherfy

When times are dark, praise the Lord. Remember the things He has done in Your life and throughout history. Look around—His wonder and beauty abound. In the darkest night, His love shines bright. We cannot thwart his plans. His mercy knows no end, His grace no boundaries. Jesus is here. He has not left us. He sustained you through yesterday, and He will carry you through today. No one is beyond His help; nothing is beyond His power.

Jesus is the only answer to whatever troubles you. Everything else will pass away. Only Jesus will remain. When you can’t see the light at the end of the tunnel, know Jesus is waiting on the other side with His arms wide open. He is also right beside you, carrying your burdens and ministering to your pain. Our Lord is at once everywhere and with us alone. He is our God, and we are His children.

We spend so much of our lives living in defeat, never remembering that Christ has already won the victory for us. We get tired of fighting the battles and give up without ever realizing that the battle was over before it even started. Imagine an army too tired to fight another battle. Suddenly they are informed the enemy has surrendered. Instead of marching in and securing the victory, they remain wallowing in their fatigue and let their opponent know that instead of declaring victory, they are going to concede defeat because they’re just too tired to go on. It’s a ridiculous scenario, but it is the way many followers of Jesus are living their lives every day.
