Devotional thoughts for most days, for those who depend on the grace and mercy of God in Jesus Christ. These thoughts are Bible based and inspired by my Reformed tradition.

The results of living a self-seeking, self serving life are before us all the time: unbearable stress about our jobs, neglected marriages and families, few if any real friendships and the nagging sense at the back of our minds that none of what we do, is really making any difference.

If the gospel is itself mighty to save, if it is the power of God resulting in salvation, then we need but to proclaim it, in simplicity, in purity, and in dependence upon God, who will by his Word and Spirit save those who believe it. And save only those who believe it, by the grace of God.

I can know all about the LORD without knowing the LORD himself.
I can memorize the whole Bible, know a lot of church tradition and even some theology, and still not know the LORD personally.
Without the fear of the LORD, all that you will have is facts, but no knowledge, figures but no wisdom, details but no understanding, rules and laws but no morality.

We know the Lord’s plans for us are to prosper and that no harm will overcome us. What we do not know, is what the journey to victory entails.

We are citizens of God’s Kingdom because we seek to follow Jesus in everything we do. All the wrongs and all the evil and all the bad governance we experience on earth can cause so much fear and anger that it robs us of the vision and passion to receive what God’s plans are for us: to prosper and not to be harmed.

God created us to worship him. We therefore thirst to worship the Lord and even when people do not acknowledge the need, it still exists. We will remain unfulfilled if we don’t.

The members of the church are not perfect. Therefore the church is not perfect and is often embarrassed by what both our members and leaders do.

Jesus compared the way that we work for him and how we change our faith communities and society, to the yeast used to bake good and wholesome bread!
