Insight for Today
Written by Chuck Swindoll, these encouraging devotional thoughts are published seven days per week.
Start Where You Are, Part Two
One of the most encouraging things about new years, new weeks, and new days is the word new. Webster reveals its meaning: “refreshed, different from one of the same that has existed previously...unfamiliar.”
Start Where You Are, Part One
To start over, you have to know where you are. To get somewhere else, it’s necessary to know where you’re presently standing.
Insensitivity, Part Two
A basic task you accepted when you became a parent was the building of self-esteem and confidence into your offspring.
Insensitivity, Part One
Perhaps the most tragic shades of insensitivity occur in the home. Between mates, to begin with. Needs in the heart of a wife long to be discovered by her husband. She hides them until an appropriate moment...but it never arrives. He’s “too busy.” What cursed words!
Getting Involved, Part Two
People who get involved are motivated by selfless compassion, a burden of concern that won’t stay folded and creased in a book.
Getting Involved, Part One
For now, go out on a limb: ask God to let you help someone in urgent distress in the immediate future. Be sensitive...He’s going to answer your request!
Stay in Circulation
Not bad theology for a proper, strait-laced Lord Protector of the Isles! In just a few words, Cromwell’s command stated the essence...the kernel...the practical goal of authentic Christianity.
Transferring Truth
Mentoring is the current term for discipleship, transferring truth and life lessons down to the next generation.
Finding Refuge
People don’t want to listen to a sermon when the bottom drops out. They want a refuge—a place to cry...a person to care.
