The Be-Attitudes of the Christian Walk ~ Be Comforted

He let me have my say, and then reminded me that He too offers comfort that is rejected out of hand. He wants to provide for us and give us life abundantly – and yet we (the collective we) run to friends, food, shopping, exercise, or chocolate (or as I did yesterday my Matcha Frap from Starbucks) to give us that comfort.
Explore how the God of all comfort meets us in our brokenness with Scripture, grace, and healing. A personal devotional on finding comfort in Christ when nothing else soothes the soul

The Be-Attitudes of the Christian Walk ~ Be Free 

While we celebrate the freedom we have in our country this week, let us not forget that our true freedom comes in knowing that this life is a only a bump in the road compared to eternity, and our physical address has “Temporary Home” stamped on the mailbox. Heaven is our home. It is where we will find perfect and eternal freedom. When we are with the Lord, our souls will no longer have an un-quenched longing for freedom and independence. We will finally be free, free at last. 

The Be-Attitudes of the Christian Walk ~ Be Light 

This world can feel like a fierce and stormy sea. Fear, confusion, pain, and division often rule and seem to be the only things visible to a lost world. But God has placed His people like beacons along the shore to burn brightly – to guide the lost to a new home, warn of danger, and offer comfort. 

The Be-Attitudes of the Christian Walk ~ Be Vigilant

That night in Yosemite reminded me of how the enemy operates. The devil, like a roaring lion, seeks to devour us. He wants to scare us, rob us of our precious resources, and teach his disciples how to do the same. We can never let down our guard. We must always be vigilant, guarding our hearts and minds, lest the predator make us his prey. 

The Be- Attitudes of the Christian Walk ~ Be Transformed 

I love spring. The rains wash the world and clease the air. New life is all around me. The bright yellow and black oriole returns to my yard, and the worship songs of the sparrows chase away the darkness of winter storms.
