The Word for today comes from John 14:16-18

Do it yourself Christianity is not much encouragement to the done in and worn out. At some point we need more than good advice; we need help. Somewhere on this journey home we realize that a fifty-fifty proposition is too little. In the hidden recesses of our being dwells, not and angel, not philosophy, not genie, but God.

And I will pray the Father, and he shall give you another Comforter, that he may abide with you for ever; 17 Even the Spirit of truth; whom the world cannot receive, because it seeth him not, neither knoweth him: but ye know him; for he dwelleth with you, and shall be in you. 18 I will not leave you comfortless: I will come to you. 19 Yet a little while, and the world seeth me no more; but ye see me: because I live, ye shall live also

The Word for today comes from Ecclesiastes 3: 10-12.

It doesn't take a wise person to know that people long for more than earth. We have our moments. Heaven is beyond our imagination. At our most creative moment, at our deepest thought, at our highest level we still cannot fathom eternity.

10 I have seen the travail, which God hath given to the sons of men to be exercised in it. 11 He hath made every thing beautiful in his time: also he hath set the world in their heart, so that no man can find out the work that God maketh from the beginning to the end. 12 I know that there is no good in them, but for a man to rejoice, and to do good in his life.

The Word for today comes from Acts 16:25

Great acts of faith are seldom born out of calm calculation. It wasn't logic that caused Moses to raise his staff on the bank of the Red Sea. It wasn't a confident committee that prayed in a small room in Jerusalem for Peter's release from prison. It was a church with no opinions. At the beginning of every act of faith, there is often a seed of fear.

And at midnight Paul and Silas prayed, and sang praises unto God: and the prisoners heard them.

The Word for today comes from 1 Peter 4: 10

Blessed are the meek, Jesus said. The word meek does not mean weak. It means focused. It is a word used to describe a domesticated stallion. Power under control. Blessed are those who recognize their God give responsibilities. Blessed are those who know what on earth they are on earth to do and set themselves about the business of doing it.

10 As every man hath received the gift, even so minister the same one to another, as good stewards of the manifold grace of God.

When hope seems gone,God is not done

Psalm 30:5

The Word for today comes from Psalm 62:6

Here is a big question. What is God doing when you are in a bind? I know what we are doing. Nibbling on nails like corn on the cob. Packing floors. But what does God? He fights for us. He steps into the ring and points us to our corner and takes over. " Remain calm; the Lord will fight for you. His job is to fight. Our job is to trust. Just trust, not direct, or question.

6 He only is my rock and my salvation:
He is my defence; I shall not be moved.

The Word for today comes from Matthew 6:21

The most powerful life is the most simple life. The most powerful life is the life that knows where it's going that knows where the source of strength is and the life that stays free of clutter and happenstance and hurriedness.

21 For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also.

The Holy Bible: King James Version, Electronic Edition of the 1900 Authorized Version. (Bellingham, WA: Logos Research Systems, Inc., 2009), Mt 6:21.
