  • Relaxing for God
    Sep 15 2023

    I am not yet good at rest and relaxation.

    But I have learned what it feels like to rest and relax, and I'm all for it.


    Exodus 20:8–11

    8 “Remember the Sabbath day, to keep it holy.

    9 Six days you shall labor, and do all your work,

    10 but the seventh day is a Sabbath to the Lord your God. On it you shall not do any work, you, or your son, or your daughter, your male servant, or your female servant, or your livestock, or the sojourner who is within your gates.

    11 For in six days the Lord made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that is in them, and rested on the seventh day. Therefore the Lord blessed the Sabbath day and made it holy.

  • Bulletproof Confidence Like Jesus
    Aug 25 2023
    Jesus was the perfect man. It's right that we look to the way he lived is life to see not just "What Would Jesus Do" theoretically, but what did he actually say, do, and feel literally. And what gave him the bulletproof confidence to say, do, and feel the way he did. It's too easy to dismiss this question by saying, "He is God. Of course he's confident." His life is perfect human life. He experienced irritation, anger, joy, temptation, gladness, confusion just like we do. But he never lived his life in the flesh, always in the power of the Holy Spirit. (Luke 4:1, 14) -We have access to the same Holy Spirit that empowered Jesus to live an emotionally holy life even around emotionally unholy people. -We can expect that by submitting to the Holy Spirit and not walking in the flesh we will be empowered to experience self-control and not unholy emotions. -As we grow in Christlikeness in our emotions, we may see our godly life spur on the people we love towards the same godliness empowered by the Holy Spirit.
