‘ …’HIS COMPASSIONS NEVER FAIL…THEY ARE NEW EVERY MORNING;” LAMENTATIONS 3:22 -23
If you think you are solely responsible for your success, think again.
David was a man who loved God very much, yet lust overcame him causing him to commit adultery; then have the woman’s husband killed. The reason David talked about God’s mercy is because he needed so much of it! Only a person who is gut-level honest in their evaluation of themselves can say, ‘O GIVE thanks to the Lord, for He is good; for His mercy and loving-kindness endure forever’ (Psalm 107:1 AMP).
‘EACH TREE IS RECOGNIZED BY ITS OWN FRUIT…” LUKE 6:44
The Titanic received five iceberg warnings just before it went down. When the sixth message came during the wee hours of the morning: ‘Look out for icebergs,’ the operator wired back ‘Shut-up! I’m busy!’ Thirty minutes later the great vessel; whose captain said, ‘Even God couldn’t sink this ship;’ was sinking fast. What happened? They forgot the truth about icebergs. What they saw above the water couldn’t have sunk the great ship. But unfortunately most of an iceberg is below the water. Do you know what? That iceberg represents your life! The 10% above the water is your reputation, the 90% below is your character. And it’s what’s below the surface that sinks your ship.
What is character?
a) self-discipline – the ability to do what’s right, even when you don’t feel like it
Each week, I am going to put a classic article from The Word for Today publication on the site. It is a a daily devotional, but by going back in to the archives and picking one a week we will get some really rich, but easily digestible wisdom!
Thank you to UCB for letting me use their work this way.
Cheers,
If you use a PC then I strongly recommend you get eSword, a more comprehensive review of eSword has now been written so please go here.
I have had on my heart for some time now to do a study into the names of Jesus, from the bible. I really believe that such a study will help to deepen my understanding of who Jesus is, and draw me closer to him.
I will be putting a list on the ‘names of Jesus’ page soon, which the study will be based on. If you think any are missing just just let me know (with the relevant bible verse).
Then, as any of the mini-studies are finished I will publish them on my blog.
