Often almost unnoticed in Scripture is the one Divine thing that cannot be counterfeited in life. While various forms of false fun and many prevailing perversions of pleasure are sought as proposed purposes for enjoyment, none of these can bring what will be finally seen as something most fundamentally supernatural. It does not depend on circumstance. It transcends any human expectation from any exterior provision. It may function in the most frightful onslaughts of fear, a formidable enemy fury or ongoing furnace of pain. It is joy.

Sometimes, you can judge a book by its cover. Remember this the next time you read the last book of the Bible. Its title page is emblazoned with these words, "The Revelation of Jesus Christ" (Revelation 1:1) and not "The Revelation of How the World will End." If you study this book only to decipher it for hidden clues of the end times, you are missing the greatest signpost of all, the blazing eyes of Jesus, calling for His bride.

These days, it’s easier than ever to get caught up in what could go wrong, and imagine wretched worst-case scenarios. But I want to challenge us to take Paul’s instruction in Philippians 4 to heart! Let’s choose to feed our souls on something better than the worst possible outcome. I encourage you to find whatever is pure, worthy, excellent, and anything of good-repute – and meditate on that today!

Leif Hetland

Whatever overwhelms you shapes you. I pray that you would be overwhelmed by His extravagant love today.

Dan McCollam

Our practice of hearing what God is saying and speaking encouragement, comfort, and strength into others doesn't need to be limited to church services. Whether it be your job, friends, family, or even someone you just met on the street, you are meant to be that candle in a dark place. Go and encourage someone today. Be the beacon of love God intended you to be.

John Calvin

We can say we know the baker because he bakes our bread but do we really know him? We can say we know the cashier because he checks out our groceries, but do we really know him? We can say we know Jesus because he's a refiner, he's a transformer, he's a deliverer, but do we know his hand of refinement, transformation, and deliverance?

There is always a lot to be thankful for if you take time to look for it. Right now, I'm sitting here thinking how nice it is that wrinkles don't hurt.

James I (J. I.) Packer

Knowing God is more than knowing about Him; it is a matter of dealing with Him as He opens up to you, and being dealt with by Him as He takes knowledge of you. Knowing about Him is a necessary precondition of trusting in Him, but the width of our knowledge about Him is no gauge of our knowledge of Him.

Miguel de Unamuno

Cure yourself of the condition of bothering about how you look to other people. Be concerned only with the idea God has of you.
