“Although so many so-called Christian therapists will try to convince you that it’s okay to lay it all out and vent your anger against God full force. Some will even tell you that you need to forgive God… friend that is the wrong advice. Never cast aspersions on His character; never talk behind His back; never sow seeds of discord about Him among others – not only does it dishonor the Lord, but it’ll definitely make things worse for you… much worse.”
In response to a reader... "I chose this verse today because it expresses what I like to think my son may have been thinking in the moments before he left his body for Heaven. Hans believed on Jesus as his Savior and Redeemer. This means Hans was counting on nothing other than Jesus' victory over …
We follow Him, not because he spares us from heartache (because He hasn’t); not because of anything He gives us or does for us. We follow Him and love Him because He is Almighty God who loves us. He knows what He is doing and we trust Him.
When you know and believe who God is and what He says about Himself, you have a rock solid foundation on which to stand when the great sea billows of life crash over you. Knowing Him well is the best and only preparation for whatever life throws at us.
Death is but a temporary separation. Those who are gone before us, are waiting for us. Oh! It will be a happy meeting before the throne of the Lamb--out of the reach of sin and sorrow, to meet and part no more!
Our Father loves us and wants us to be in close fellowship with Him.
The strength of the vessel can be demonstrated only by the hurricane, and the power of the Gospel can be fully shown only when the Christian is subjected to some fiery trial. If God would make manifest the fact that “He giveth songs in the night,” He must first make it night. –William Taylor Land …
I asked the Lord what I should write about today. Then I opened my Bible and here's what He said: Tell of His Wonderful Works! So here goes.. 1. O give thanks unto the LORD; call upon his name: make known his deeds among the people. Thank you, Lord, that you are. Thank you …
Faith must have as its object something bigger than self. Bigger than anyone or anything. Faith must be in something bigger than death. There is no point in having a lot of faith in something little.
Let us hold fast the profession of our faith without wavering; (for he is faithful that promised;) Hebrews 10:23 https://youcantrusthim.com/2018/02/15/doubt-him-no-longer/
I trust the Captain. Because I know Him. And He knows me. This is peace.
Anger is destructive. It is a nasty weapon in the arsenal of the Destroyer. How's it working for you? Does it not make you unbelievably tired? Wouldn't you like to lay it down and walk away? Wouldn't you like to replace it with something more productive, something more God-honoring? Wouldn't you like to rest?
Without the Resurrection, if Jesus did not rise bodily from the dead, then our departed son is also dead, just dead - and the whole churchy Bible thing is a bogus fabrication. Without a living Jesus, Hans is GONE. If Jesus is not alive, then I have believed a lie and will never see our …
