God hasn’t made you just to look attractive while you sit on display. God has created you to be useful for the benefit of others.
God wants us to offer the sacrifice that David offered when he recognized his sins. He said, “My sacrifice, O God, is a broken spirit; a broken and contrite heart you will not despise” (Psalm 51:17).
Christians are kind to everyone, because the Lord has been kind to us.
We need to bear with each other, otherwise we won’t be able to work with each other and accomplish things together. God is patient with us. He forgives us for the times we are impatient.
God shows us our sins, so they can be forgiven and we can be in heaven with him.
Life can be especially hard for people who are trying to follow Jesus. The devil tries to get us to stop believing him. Certain people try to make life difficult for us. Our own sinful nature gets in our way of doing the right thing. It is hard to follow Jesus, because we’ve got enemies opposing us all the time.
Come to church to meet Jesus, because he gives eternal life through the gospel.
Jesus came to take our sins away and pay for them all by his suffering and death. He is the one who brings us close to God.
You and I can believe in God as confidently as if we had seen him with our own eyes. This is faith.
We have proof that God does care about you. No matter what bad things happen to you, he gave his own Son for you.
God wants to show us blessings greater than anything we’ve ever experienced. Open your Bible and think about those things.
God works through the words of the Bible. He wants to create and strengthen faith in you, forgive you, give you a new life, and empower you to accomplish impressive things. He exercises that power in his promise.
