When hearts connect, love appears. Open yours to God and to people.
I think I’m finally learning the art of peaceful bewilderment. There’s much I don’t understand, but that’s okay. When we let bewilderment blind us to hope, it leads us to bitterness.
To welcome evil thoughts is to drink poison that will mess you up. If you let yourself become distracted and directed by desires, you’ll be dominated by cravings.
Christianity isn’t theology to be figured out, but a lifestyle to be walked out. Sin is self-imposed limitation. Freedom is God-given revelation–hidden insight, brought to light. The living Jesus helps me be at peace even when I’m bewildered and befuddled.
How you see the Bible if your heart is: against God, negative; apathetic to God, boring; hungry for God, exciting. The Bible has been an amazing body shop for my mind. Reading it daily with an open heart has healed much of my mental wreckage.
The true seed of faith must first flow from your heart, not from your finances.

Steve Simms – you just resonate with me. I truly, Truly, TRULY enjoy reading and look FORWARD to daily reading your Think Tank blog. Like today’s for example. How’d you know that that is exactly what I needed to hear. Yes, I am finding the bible exciting. Anyhow…thank you for writing / starting this blog. You are much appreciated (not a strong enough word, but….). thank you
John:
Your timing is amazing. I really needed some encouragement this morning. Thank you so much!
