Henri J. M. Nouwen said: “Waiting is not a very popular attitude. Waiting is not something that people think about with great sympathy. In fact, most people consider waiting a waste of time. Perhaps this is because the culture in which we live is basically saying, “Get going! Do something! Show you are able to make a difference! Don’t just sit there and wait!” For many people, waiting is an awful desert between where they are and where they want…
1. The truth you know shall set you free. 2. When time chooses tide, the truth sets people free from the current. 3. Sanctify them in the truth; your word is truth. 4. God is spirit, and those who worship him must worship in spirit and truth.
Have not heard that even when time takes its tide, the truth takes its freedom? Yes, what makes the truth the great friend of the way and life comes through with inspiration! Justices always prevail as the truth endured! Scripturally: “When the Spirit of truth comes, he will guide you into all the truth, for he will not speak on his own authority, but whatever he hears he will speak, and he will declare to you the things that are…
Mahatma Gandhi said: “Truth alone will endure, all the rest will be swept away before the tide of time. I must continue to bear testimony to truth even if I am forsaken by all. Mine may today be a voice in the wilderness, but it will be heard when all other voices are silenced if it is the voice of truth.”
1. It’s for you to reach all the riches of the full assurance of understanding and the knowledge of God’s mystery. 2. Fear not to understand with all the saints what is the breadth and length and height and depth. 3. Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil, for you are with me; your rod and your staff, they comfort me. 4. Keep it opened for my God will supply…
What is happening within you? Many things, of course! Have you heard that God is up to something? There is a reason why you went through what you went through! Trust the process He brought on you. He’s got you. Always remember that; “The city lies foursquare, its length the same as its width. And he measured the city with his rod, 12,000 stadia. Its length and width and height are equal.” (Revelation 21:16 ESV). Yes, you can do it;…
Susannah Black: In 1844, a field outside Northampton, Massachusetts, a gang of young men showed up at a revival meeting, making trouble. The meeting’s organizers grew angry; the men – more than a hundred – redoubled their uproar. One of the meeting attendees, a forty-seven-year-old woman, hid behind a chest in the corner of the tent: “I am the only colored person here,” she thought, “and on me, probably, their wicked mischief will fall first, and perhaps fatally.” The young…
1. Be kind to others, and you will receive mercy below and above. 2. Mercy opens the upper and lower springs. 3. The children reflect the Father’s mercy and are therefore merciful themselves. 4. Keep parading mercy for higher mercy.
Who are the merciful or what does “blessed are the merciful” means? How pleased are you to let go, I mean, to forgive others? Have you ever discovered any joy in hold back, I mean, in not forgiven those who offended you? Repeatedly, to be merciful is to show forgiveness and compassion to those in need. Get connected to the fifth beatitudes, and I quote: “Happy are those who are merciful to others; God will be merciful to them!” (Matthew 5:7…
Hanna-Barbara Gerl-Falkovitz said: “Eva Mozes Kor and her twin sister, born to a Jewish family, were used for medical experiments on humans by the SS doctor Josef Mengele. Half a century later, she met with another SS doctor, Hans Münch, who asked her for forgiveness. It was then that she recognized in his appeal a way to leave behind the harm inflicted on her. The “helpless little Mengele guinea pig,” in her words, possessed something she hadn’t been aware of:…
