Personal Problems

1888) I am someone who will do just about anything to avoid confrontation. I know the reasons why so, in a sense, I use them to justify not confronting others when necessary. Yet, Jesus commands we do this, and he’s very specific about how it is to be carried out.   Matthew 18:15-20 tells us

Wait

1887) Waiting is a difficult thing for many these days. Why? Because we are used to getting immediate results. The text, the online shopping, instant customer service, 24/7. When someone doesn’t answer immediately, we can get irritated.   There are just some things, however, that cannot be hurried. One is found in Habakkuk 2:3. Here

Listen for the Stories

1886) One thing I’ve learned in the last couple of years is it’s important to listen to others’ stories. What does this mean? When others tell me of what’s going on in their lives, I need to listen, which involves more than just my ears. I need to take in what’s being said and connect

Am I a Failure?

1885) When I’m sitting at this computer, contemplating what God will have me write for another “minute,” it causes mixed feelings. Why? Because whatever topic God leads me to write about, it’s something I must incorporate into my life as well. I don’t sit and write thinking; I’ve got this thing together, but my readers

Seeking Approval

1884) We all want approval from others. Some of us are more focused on it, but this desire is universal. For children, they want the approval of the adults in their world. A parent, grandparent or teacher. For teens, they also want the approval of some specific peer group. For adults, we may long for the

Sharing Examined

1883) The word sharing has a different emphasis, depending on the group the word is used within. In kindergarten, it can mean allowing other children to have time to play with a toy. For junior high, it can mean expanding a friendship circle with a new teen. For adults, it can mean getting something “heavy”

A Small, Enormous Difference

1882) Watching or reading news of our nation can be daunting. There’s so much that is going wrong and I fear where this will lead us as a country. When I sit quietly and think about these things, I’m tempted to say, what difference can I make in all of this? The answer is: a

Who Do You Say I Am?

1881) Imagine a group of your peers, or even a group that just knows who you are and someone brings up your name. What kind of conversation will take place? Will they remember your work ethic? Your character? Will there be disdain in their words? Something to think about, isn’t it?   In Matthew 16:15,

Prudent Planning

1880) Taking the time to think through a commitment before you agree to it is prudent. Is this a worth-while thing? Am I equipped to do it? Do I have someone who can guide and help me when I get stuck?   Luke 14:28 tells us a wise builder makes sure he has the funds

Timing is Everything

1879) There are times in our lives when we stand on a threshold, needing to decide on what to do next. What college should I go to? Whom should I marry? Should I buy this house? In Galatians 6:10, Paul tells us to do good to others when we have an opportunity. The Greek word used
