God offers authentic LOVE. His devotion is the real deal. But He won't give you the genuine until you surrender the imitations.

We see a hearse we think sorrow. We see a grave we think despair. We hear of a death we think of a loss. Not so in heaven. When heaven sees a breathless body, it sees the vacated cocoon & the liberated butterfly.

I have some friends whose sermons are extremely practical - so practical that I can put them right to use. I'm trying to learn how to do that better but I don't think my approach or style really has changed in these 30 years. Whether that's good or bad I don't know, but I don't think it has.

If you're feeling pain, express that to the Lord. If you're feeling worried, express those worries. One passage that gives me comfort is in Psalms, Chapter 11, verse 3, it reads, When all that is good falls apart, what can good people do? That's really the question of the day.

Jesus humbled himself. He went from commanding angels to sleeping in the straw. From holding stars to clutching Mary's finger. The palm that held the universe took the nail of a soldier. Why? Because that's what love does. It puts the beloved before itself.
