Good morning and Happy Sunday 🌞☀️
Never allow fear control your life. Given we have one life to live on earth without unlimited do-overs, let’s make it count by thinking beyond ourselves. Our Founding Fathers risked everything to break free from the yoke of Great Britain. What, if anything, are you willing to risk?
“Don’t fear those who kill the body but are not able to kill the soul; rather, fear him who is able to destroy both soul and body in hell. Aren’t two sparrows sold for a penny? Yet not one of them falls to the ground without your Father’s consent. But even the hairs of your head have all been counted. So don’t be afraid; you are worth more than many sparrows.” Matthew 10: 28-31 (CSB).
Power comes from faith in the existence of a Supreme Being who knows your name and situation. Be bold and courageous remembering to whom you belong. #faith #prayer #God #Christian #Jewish #America #Israel

Yesterday and today these two passages have been challenging me.
#BibleVerse #selfexamination #christianliving @allenjacksonmin @wochurchtn
“This is what the Lord says: Cursed is the person who trusts in mankind. He makes human flesh his strength, and his heart turns from the Lord.”
Jeremiah 17:5(NIV)
“Why do you look at the speck of sawdust in your brother’s eye and pay no attention to the plank in your own eye? How can you say to your brother, ‘Let me take the speck out of your eye,’ when all the time there is a plank in your own eye? You hypocrite, first take the plank out of your own eye, and then you will see clearly to remove the speck from your brother’s eye.”
— Matthew 7:3-5
My takeaway is simple and uncomfortable: I need to trust Christ more and measure others less.
Where are you tempted to look to people (or yourself) for protection or direction instead of God?
And where do you catch yourself being quicker to spot the speck in someone else than the plank in your own eye?
Greetings 👋
Here’s an important passage that my friend @patsylevang5 shared this morning. It’s always worth reflecting on the deeper meaning of these words.
“The Narrow and Wide Gates
Enter through the narrow gate. For wide is the gate and broad is the road that leads to destruction, and many enter through it. But small is the gate and narrow the road that leads to life, and only a few find it.”
Matthew 7:13-14 (NIV)
This is a sobering warning. It suggests that the vast majority of people who profess faith may actually be traveling the broad road that leads to destruction. Pray that you and your loved ones are among the few walking the narrow path that leads to life.
