Upheaval in the Middle East, especially when it involves Israel, inevitably stirs up a hornet’s nest of fears about the end of the world...That’s especially true for those who’ve been led to believe that Jesus predicted what they’re seeing play out on the news in his Olivet…
MORE Hallelujahs, Jesus... Your “termination” purchased creation’s reconciliation (Col.1:20-21). Your last words ”It is finished!” are the “Yes!” to every promise God made (2Cor.1:20). Your body, planted as a seed, will yield the garden-world of the new earth.
We all hear voices... no exceptions. Train and tune your heart to hear Jesus' voice above every other voice. It's the only voice that speaks from a heart full of grace and truth all the time. Jesus speaks the clearest and loudest through the Scriptures by his Spirit.
The gospel does not lead you to think too little of yourself or too much of yourself, but it frees from self-absorption and thrusts you outward toward others in love and service.
What do I need today? Grace to love others as Jesus loves me. Grace to be non-reactive and resentment free. Grace to offer bold kindness, and no harshness. Grace to be a non-stop encourager. Grace for a “photographic memory” of the Gospel, and a poor memory of how people fail.
"All that the Father gives me will come to me, and whoever comes to me I will never cast out" (Jn.6:37). You are a gift to Jesus by your Father, and Jesus will never let go of you. Humility, peace, and neighbor-love are the order of the day.
The greater our love for someone, the greater our potential for anger at what is destructive in their lives.
“When (not,“If”) I’m afraid, I put my trust in you” Ps. 56:3. Jesus, trusting you isn’t “getting a grip,” it’s letting go of what we don’t have—control. It’s not “bucking up,” it’s getting low where grace freely pools. It's not having faith in faith, it's collapsing on you.
One of our greatest sins is being impatient with God, not trusting our sovereign God to do things according to his own perfect plan and in his own time.
John Owen (1616-1683) nailed it. He said our main “duty” as believers is to gaze on God’s “everlasting tenderness and compassion, his thoughts of kindness towards us from eternity, and his present gracious acceptance.” Can we be sure? Yes, the Gospel gives and guarantees it.
The ability to do whatever you want is not freedom. It's slavery.
In Scripture and in the rest of life and history, the greatest "heroes of faith" have been flawed and broken—wrecked, weary, restless, and unfinished sinners—even when they were at their very best. If there's room in God's story for these, there's certainly room for you.
Friends, Jack Miller hammered into my heart: “There is NO wasted preaching/sharing of the Gospel.” It’s true. The Gospel ALWAYS brings God glory. It also raises the dead, hardens the foolish, plants seed pregnant with the new earth, and humbles and gladdens the preacher/sharer.
We’ll never have a better day to (1) Revel and rest in the riches of God’s grace. (2) To encourage others at a ratio of 7-to-1, over whining about circumstances. (3) To see Jesus 10 times more beautiful and sovereign, than anything that allures us, or fuels our despair.

What if we began to rethink “missions” altogether? In addition to commissioning pastors and missionaries for God’s work, we can also commission artists, physicians, homemakers, educators, baristas, athletes, parents, intercessors, attorneys, landscapers, and salespeople.
“You can safely assume you've created God in your own image when it turns out that God hates all the same people you do.” Anne Lamott
In the continuum of “us versus them,” each of us have people we label “them.” If they’re true enemies, Jesus says pray for them. If they’re just different from us, view things very differently, or threaten our “us-ness,” Jesus says love them and work for peace. Lets obey Jesus.
Can you imagine how much of the Spirit's power it took, and how much of our Father's grace was in play, 4 the poly-cultural, multi-ethnic, rigid-religious, pagan-freewheelers, waring-world-view personas to come together, and identify as one Bride of Jesus in Rome?
“He will quiet you with his love” (Zeph. 3:17). Jesus doesn’t use shame or law to quiet our noisy, fearful, angry, restless hearts. His love settles and centers us. So, let's welcome Jesus today, and extend his quieting love to others.

Let's not let anything “eclipse” the Son—that is, obscure, hide, or dim Jesus’ beauty, goodness, and truth. He is the radiance of God's glory, the light of the world, the Son who created the sun. When “darkness veils his lovely face,” we can "rest on his unchanging grace."
If we really understood the grandeur of the “as I (Jesus) have loved you” part of the new command (Jn.13:34), it would change everything. Astonished and nourished by Jesus’ love for us, loving others would involve less striving and more reliance on Jesus.
MORE Hallelujahs, Jesus... Your “termination” purchased creation’s reconciliation (Col.1:20-21). Your last words ”It is finished!” are the “Yes!” to every promise God made (2Cor.1:20). Your body, planted as a seed, will yield the garden-world of the new earth.
What peace and comfort is greater than this? “God is so boundlessly pleased with Jesus that, in him, he is altogether well pleased with us.” Spurgeon
No spiritual discipline can make God love you. It’s too late for that. God already loves you. But spiritual disciplines helps us to live in God's love, and offer it to others.
“Blessed are those who live before the Lord with affectionate marvel... They won’t fear bad news... (For) their hearts are firm, steadfast, trusting in the Lord” (Ps.112:1,7). Jesus, refire our Gospel-astonishment. Supersize our marvel, trust, and affection for you.
“I (Jesus) will block her (our) path with thornbushes... She’ll chase after her “lovers” but not catch them.” Hos.2:6. Consider it a “kiss” when Jesus won’t let our broken cisterns, worthless idols, or false lovers be enough. Sometimes we need a thornbush not a daisy.
Churches that are too heavily invested in the political agenda of a particular party or candidate can appear to others to be captive to an ideology instead of the Lordship of Christ.
Best self-talk = “My soul, find rest in God alone” (Ps.62:5). Jesus, it’s not what we see in the mirror, have in our savings, or hear from our peers. Our rest comes from you ALONE. You are our “righteousness, holiness, redemption,” our peace and our very life. 1Cor.1:30,Phil.1:21
Good morning, Commodore Nation.
We all hear voices... no exceptions. Train and tune your heart to hear Jesus' voice above every other voice. It's the only voice that speaks from a heart full of grace and truth all the time. Jesus speaks the clearest and loudest through the Scriptures by his Spirit.
The gospel does not lead you to think too little of yourself or too much of yourself, but it frees from self-absorption and thrusts you outward toward others in love and service.
Three of the most glorious, everything-changing words ever joined in one sentence. God to each of his grace-redeemed children, "You are mine” (Isa. 43:1). There is no greater privilege, joy, and peace.
Jesus, we pray for your Bride as she gathers to worship you in Memphis this morning. May your glory and grace, your tears and lament, your defeat of evil and reconciling love permeate the city. We ache, we anguish, yet we grieve with hope.
It is impossible to take what the Bible teaches seriously and defend any form of racism, nationalism, or the supremacy of any one people group. If fact, to take the Bible seriously is to stand against all of those.
What do I need today? Grace to love others as Jesus loves me. Grace to be non-reactive and resentment free. Grace to offer bold kindness, and no harshness. Grace to be a non-stop encourager. Grace for a “photographic memory” of the Gospel, and a poor memory of how people fail.
How do you change your behavior? Change what you worship.
For me, being in church on Christmas was very meaningful because I looked around and saw my family, not limited by biology but forged by grace. We need this kind of togetherness especially on holidays that can be hard and sad for many of us. The Table is where we belong.
