We are truly privileged to be children of God. When we make Him our source, we can live in His rest and offer that rest to those around us.

No one needs to teach us the law of retaliation (an eye for an eye). Our flesh is only satisfied when our aggressor becomes a victim. But this avenue only produces more retaliation. God has another path for us.

“Is that what a Christian is?” Some unbelievers sometimes doubt when looking at the lives of those who claim to be born again. To truly be Christ-like, we have no other options: we must be filled with the Holy Spirit.

God asks us to be peacemakers. For that, you don’t have to agree with everyone. We can disagree with someone without putting them down or demonizing them.

We know that worrying is not good for our health. But it’s not just the worries that can clutter our thoughts to the point of exhausting us. God gives us a warning about this in His Word.
