Hmm..

Get back into the Word of God.

Biblical, social media
Lady to Christian youths: To you, what does OMG stand for?
Youths: Oh my gosh...
Lady: What do your non-Christian friends think OMG stands for?
Youths: Oh my God.
Lady: I rest my case.
Lessons

Been learning so much in the last 12 days. Tricky, and lots of denying-of-self required in the process. But it’s all incredibly rewarding, and thus far worth it. //

May the grace and love of God abound so deeply within us. //

Where the giving is compelled by choice-love more so than emotion-love, by some mystery, the giver’s love for its recipient becomes deepened in both ways. //

Selfless

Oh Lord, indeed, it is selflessness that makes love beautiful. Christ, Your son, was the greatest reflection of such love.

J: :D
M: What's with the wide smile?
J: I'm happy when my friends are happy!
M: Mm, yes, I'm happy. (:

First love: Jesus Christ

Idleness sets the door of the heart ajar, and asks Satan to come in; but if we are occupied from morning till night, if Satan shall get in, he must break through the door.
Spurgeon, Sermon #450
From Creation to Revelations

God is sovereign, His ways are unfathomable, and no one knows what He’s doing from beginning to the end.

The gift of salvation is free for all, yet the message of repentance is not easily accepted. Thing is, you can’t receive one without the other…! Oh Lord, bring us to our knees!

Funny that the gospel is really uncomplicated, yet it is not easily understood. Why?
