How to Read Your Bible so it Changes You →
mighty2save:
I spent years reading my Bible and studying it. Years doing different devotionals. And none of it changed the way I live. I read it, I learned it, then I went on with my day.
But now I do something extremely radical and different.
Every morning I say a short prayer and asking God to direct me on…

mighty2save:
i think this is something we should all focus on. usually we think of humbleness as not letting disgrace, meanness or anything of the like hurt us. but we forget it means not letting praise go to our head. it means knowing we are who we are in christ and nothing can change that. let us all continue to be more humble not only in the eyes of evil but in the eyes of over sweetness....

I struggle and I stumble...
…and when I look back, grace and mercy are following me, catching me before I fall to the ground. They chase after me even when I’m unthoughtful, ungrateful, inconsiderate, selfish… because the Sender of them knows that He has my heart. Even when I am all those things, He has my heart. Even when I sometimes forget who and whose I am, He has my heart. And so grace and mercy are...

You say, wait!” my indignant reply. “Lord, I need answers, I need to know why! Is Your hand shortened? Or have You not heart? By faith, I have asked, and am claiming Your Word.” My...
