Have I not commanded you?

On my heart.
This has been on my heart for a little while but I’m finally writing it.
13 I will come to your temple with burnt offerings and fulfill my vows to you— 14 vows my lips promised and my mouth spoke when I was in trouble.

Dear Self, Who do you Fear? →
livingforone:
Dear Self,
You often fear the wrong things. For example, often you are fearful of conflict, suffering, or the loss of good things like respect or acceptance by certain kinds of people. It is understandable from a worldly perspective, for these things you are afraid of losing are themselves—worldly. This does not mean they are bad, but they are temporal. So many of the things you...

Who are you to pass judgement on the servant of another? Whether he stands or falls, the one concerned is his master. But he will not fall, for his master is able to keep him standing.

deebella123:
I think a lot of us can forget that God cares about the little things that bother us, too. I, myself, once felt a bit silly praying about things that others may have deemed as insignificant, no matter how much or how little it affected me. I felt silly praying about losing some money, or when I…

Why don’t you want Me? Why aren’t you choosing Me? I have given you everything. I have given you vast oceans and sunsets. I have given you birds and pets. I have given you the beauty of music. I have given you the pleasures of food and water, of sex and the way it feels to read and create and the way it feels to read and create and expand. I have given you prophets to speak on My behalf. I gave...

solideogloriaa:
Human Torches. The idea of it got me thinking. Jesus has called us to live a burning life. Human torches cannot be complacent, we’re never satisfied, we’re always wanting more of God. There’s a fire within us that nothing can put out.
But it’s more than that. We are Human…

The arts
My my my! I just want to encourage any artists up there. Somewhere along the line people seemed to get confused, it is completely possible to bring glory to God through the arts! Completely!
We, as people, can challenge this idea in all forms of art. If we stop buying the crass that comes out of hollywood, that is so bad for our spirit and unhelpful then as a generation they will change to suit...
