A Day to Worship

August 30, 2026

In the midst of life’s busyness, God lovingly invites us to pause and turn our hearts toward Him. For many Christians, Sunday offers a special opportunity to gather with fellow believers, listen to His Word, pray, sing praises, and remember the goodness of our Lord.

Worship is not limited to one day. Each morning and throughout every ordinary moment, we can honor God and give Him thanks. Yet there is something deeply meaningful about setting aside time to step away from our usual routines and worship together. In the presence of God’s people, we are reminded that we are not walking alone and that our Savior is worthy of all our praise.

As you go to church today, come with an open and grateful heart. Don’t simply attend—worship! Take time to thank Jesus for His unfailing love, abundant mercy, saving grace, and the countless blessings He has placed in your life. Let your worship be more than words or songs; let it rise from a heart that is resting in Him.

“O come, let us worship and bow down: let us kneel before the LORD our maker.” — Psalm 95:6 KJV

May you experience the nearness of the Lord and have a truly blessed Sunday as you worship Him.

Is The LORD First In Your Heart?

August 23, 2026

What does it mean to truly love the Lord? This verse gives us the answer: with all our heart, soul, and strength.

God does not want only a small part of our lives. He wants to be first in our thoughts, our decisions, our relationships, and everything we do. When we love Him wholeheartedly, serving Him is not just a duty—it becomes a joy.

Our love for God is shown in the way we obey His Word, spend time with Him in prayer, and share His love with others. We will never love Him perfectly, but every day we can choose to love Him more.

Today, ask yourself: Is the Lord first in my heart?

And thou shalt love the LORD thy God with all thine heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy might. Deuteronomy 6:5

Peace in a Troubled World

August 21, 2026

We live in a world filled with trouble, uncertainty, and heartache. Jesus never promised that our lives would always be easy. In fact, He told us plainly that we would have tribulation.

But He also gave us a wonderful promise: “Be of good cheer; I have overcome the world.”

No matter what we may face today, we can have peace because our trust is not in our circumstances—it is in Jesus Christ. He is greater than every problem, every fear, and every burden.

When the world around us seems uncertain, remember that Jesus is still in control. Stay close to Him, trust His Word, and let His peace fill your heart.

Today, be encouraged. Jesus has overcome the world, and in Him we can have peace.

Don’t Give Up

August 11, 2026

Sometimes we get tired. We pray, serve, give, encourage others, and try to do what God wants us to do, but we may not see the results we hoped for.

God reminds us in Galatians 6:9—don’t give up!

Every prayer matters. Every kind word can make a difference. Every time the Gospel is shared, a seed is planted. We may not always see what God is doing, but He is working.

This is especially true in ministry. There may be days when we become discouraged, but then one person accepts Jesus as Savior, and we are reminded why we keep going.

Keep praying. Keep serving. Keep sharing Jesus.

God promises that “in due season we shall reap, if we faint not.”

Today, if you are weary, ask the Lord for renewed strength. Your labor for Him is never in vain.

One Life-Changing Tip

August 3, 2026

If you had to give one life-changing tip, what would it be?

If someone asked me to share just one life-changing tip, my answer would be simple:

Trust Jesus Christ as your Savior.

There are many good pieces of advice in life. Work hard. Be kind. Save for the future. Forgive others. All of these are valuable. But none of them can compare to knowing Jesus Christ personally.

The greatest decision anyone will ever make is to place their faith in the Lord Jesus Christ. He came to this earth, died on the cross for our sins, was buried, and rose again the third day. He offers forgiveness, peace, purpose, and the promise of eternal life to all who believe in Him.

Life will still have its trials, disappointments, and heartaches, but when Christ is your Savior, you never face them alone. He walks with you, strengthens you, and gives you a hope that this world can never offer.

If I could leave just one tip with every person I meet, it would be this:

Don’t wait another day. Trust Jesus Christ as your Savior. It is the one decision that changes not only this life, but eternity.

“Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved…” — Acts 16:31 (KJV)

May the Lord use this simple message to encourage believers and point those who do not yet know Him to the Savior.

God Is Good!

The Price Jesus Paid!

July 21, 2026

This morning I spent time reading Isaiah 53, and my heart was overwhelmed once again by the incredible love of Jesus Christ.

Hundreds of years before Jesus was born, Isaiah described the suffering that our Savior would endure. Every wound, every bruise, every moment of rejection and agony was not because of anything He had done—but because of our sin. He willingly took our place.

When I stop and think about the cross, I realize that my salvation was not free. It was purchased at an immeasurable cost. Jesus bore the punishment that I deserved so that I could receive the forgiveness I could never earn.

What amazing love! What amazing grace!

May we never take His sacrifice for granted. Instead, let us live each day with thankful hearts, praising the One who loved us enough to suffer and die in our place. The greatest response we can give is to love Him, obey Him, and share the wonderful message of salvation with others who need to know the hope found only in Jesus Christ.

Today, take a few moments to read Isaiah 53. Let it remind you of the depth of God’s love and the tremendous price Jesus paid so that we could have eternal life

What Is True Love?

June 24, 2026

 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
John 3:16

What do you think of when you hear the word love? You may think of your spouse, your children.

We use the word love about material things. “ I love my house”

What is true love? The best example is found in the familiar verse, John 3:16. For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.

God’s love is the greatest love we can experience. He sent His Son, Jesus, to die on the cross to pay the penalty for our sin. 

Because of His great love we can have eternal life. 

Have you accepted His love?

Pray for Those Who Visit Our Website

June 23, 2026

This week we were amazed to learn that people from 53 different countries visited our blog. What an incredible reminder that God can use even a simple website to reach people around the world with the message of His love.

Every visitor represents a person with a soul that will spend eternity somewhere. Some may be searching for answers. Some may be carrying burdens and heartaches. Others may have never heard a clear presentation of the Gospel. Yet God, in His providence, allowed them to visit our website and read about His wonderful gift of salvation.

The greatest expression of God’s love was demonstrated when He sent His Son, Jesus, to die on the cross for our sins. Through His death, burial, and resurrection, the way has been made for all people to be forgiven and receive eternal life.

Today, let us pray for those who visit the website. Pray that the Holy Spirit will speak to their hearts as they read. Pray that those who do not know Jesus as their Savior will understand the Gospel and place their faith in Him. Pray that believers will be encouraged, strengthened, and drawn closer to the Lord.

We may never meet many of these visitors on this side of heaven, but God knows each one by name. What a joy it would be to one day meet people in heaven who came to know Christ because they visited a website, read a blog, or were touched by a message that pointed them to Jesus.

Let us continue to faithfully share the Good News and trust God to use it for His glory around the world.

What Would Jesus Think?

May 26, 2026

Do you remember the saying, “What Would Jesus Do?” It became very popular years ago. Many people wore bracelets, placed it on their cars, or displayed it in their homes.

Today, I want to encourage you to think of it a little differently:
“What Would Jesus Think?”

If we think like Jesus, we begin to put others before ourselves. We strive to be humble rather than proud. We choose to give rather than take. We learn to love our neighbors with compassion and grace. As we grow in this mindset, we become more like Jesus.

So today, rather than grumble and complain, let us choose thankfulness. Let us look at others through the eyes of Christ. Let us think with kindness, humility, and love.

Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus.
Philippians 2:5 KJV
