We’ve all had a friend at the beginning of a new romantic relationship who won’t stop talking about this new boyfriend. And while it’s annoying it’s also beautiful, because it’s the perfect example of how easy it is to talk about those we spend a great deal of time with.
You’ve heard the phrase “power couple” before, right? It refers to that couple who has it all together.
The hard truth, my friend, is this: if I don’t leave space for God to move, I won’t see him move.
It is vital we ask ourselves these difficult questions and are willing to sit with the difficult answers lest we forget how desperately we need our Jesus.
It’s clear from that passage (and many others) that as Christians we’re called to love the people who are difficult to love. And every now and then one of those people enters my life.
This week at church, the preacher gave a powerful word about the necessity of bearing fruit in your life. If you profess to be a Christian but nothing about your life looks different compared to before you became a Christian, something isn’t adding up.
I know to some of us all these words can be difficult to keep straight. Or am I the only one who can read a paragraph in the Bible three times and still have no idea what I’m reading?
