Our children’s generation is being shaped by a secular philosophy of emotions that leads to confusion and despair. But the gospel offers something better—an identity rooted in Christ, a truth more solid than their feelings, and a God who welcomes them, emotions and all, into His steadfast love.

The road home was blanketed by fog, obscuring the way ahead. Afraid I would crash into the hedge or another vehicle, I pleaded with the Lord to send me something or someone to follow.

Let me ask these questions of you. . . are you happy with where your walk with Jesus is right now? Do you feel you are serving Him and walking with Him in every area? Are you happy with where Church is? Are we seeking the lost and the broken to give them the good news of Christ? Are we hoping for a move of the spirit that this church has never seen before?

Where in your life do you need to trust that God is working for your good?

What "troubles" are you facing that you need to surrender to God's love?

Much as I love these verses, they also challenge me. Am I really pressing on, really straining and stretching myself to get to know Jesus better? Are my eyes totally fixed on ‘the prize for which God has called me’? Or…have I become distracted or complacent?

Psalm 59:16 – Sing of God’s Strength and Love

“But I will sing of your strength, in the morning I will sing of your love; for you are my fortress, my refuge in times of trouble.”

Sunday. . . A day we come church, have a nice lunch, spend time with the family. . . and get ready for the week ahead. I wonder, however, how many of us see a Sunday as a day when we get the opportunity to meet with the Lord?

As children of the light, we are now the light of the world "You are the light of the world. A town built on a hill cannot be hidden.” (Matthew 5:14). And as the light of the world, Jesus has charged us to “let your light shine before others, that they may see your good deeds and glorify your Father in heaven” (Matthew 5:16).
