The power of Inspired Thoughts

“Above all else, guard your heart, for it is the wellspring of life.” Proverb 4:23 Our thoughts control our lives. If your spirit harbors thoughts of bitterness, hate and envy, your mind will be drenched with negative and destructive thoughts, and you will never experience the dynamism of the Christian faith. By living in harmony with the living Christ, and allowing His spirit to become an inspiration to your spirit, you can achieve the impossible.

Stand by your convictions

In your efforts to reach maturity, you should have something against which to measure your progress. The apostle Paul teaches that we should measure our progress against nothing less than the character of Christ. Although this is an impossible goal, to aim any lower is to accept a second hand life. However, never forget Jesus’ love...

A Balanced Inner Life

“If any of you lacks wisdom, he should ask God who gives generously to all without finding fault, and it will be given to him. ” James 1:5 Many people believe that to live a truly spiritual life, you need to live in seclusion; where the realities of life are either ignored or forgotten. However, the lessons Jesus taught along the dusty roads of Palestine were very spiritual, yet essentially practical. For Him, everything-every thought and deed – was an expression of His relationship with His heavenly Father. Therefore, true Christians do not divide their lives into compartments, because all...
