Goodness, Righteousness

In Psalm 15, David asks God in the first verse “Lord, who may dwell in your sanctuary?” The rest of the Psalm goes through a list including Walking blamelessly, do what is righteous, Speak truth, do your neighbor no wrong, do not speak badly of your fellowman, despise what is vile, honor those who fear the Lord, keep your oath even when it hurts you, lend money without interest, and do not accept bribes. In the last part of the final verse in Psalm 15:5 David confirms, He who does these things will never be shaken.

2016 Day 315 – Psalm 12

Goodness, Love

What comes out of our mouth can be used to encourage and speak loving truth to those around us. But, though it is a small part of our bodies, our tongue can also cause greater destruction than any other part. In Psalm 12:3-4 David says, May the Lord cut off all flattering lips and every boastful tongue that says, “We will triumph with our tongues; we own our lips — who is our master?” In this day of social media people find it acceptable to say things they never would in person. Unfortunately, this is now permeating into the physical as well as virtual worlds where people are not afraid to speak their minds to perfect strangers. We must guard our speech from hurting others and instead do all things in love.

2016 Day 221 – 1 Timothy 5

Goodness

In the world we live in today, sin can be easily disguised. It is often getting harder to tell good from evil. In 1 Timothy 5:24-25 Paul warns Timothy with: 24 The sins of some men are obvious, reaching the place of judgement ahead of them; the sins of others trail behind them. 25 In the same way, good deeds are obvious, and even those that are not cannot be hidden. But when we talk about the good things, those are much harder to hide, even when attention is not given directly to it. When you do good, people know it. There is very little need to bring attention to good deeds.

2016 Day 22 – Matthew 12

Compassion, Goodness, Servant

Actions speak louder than words, but words are powerful just the same. Jesus warns in Matthew 12:37, For by your words you will be acquitted, and by your words you will be condemned. In the end, it all matters because of how we affect and influence others. Maya Angelou once said, “People may not remember exactly what you did, or what you said, but they will always remember how you made them feel.” We always want to be a powerful impact on those around us. Let us strive to be powerful AND positive.

2015 Day 280 – Proverbs 13

Goodness, Obedience, Righteousness

Living a life of righteousness helps guard our lives. Proverbs 13:6 says, Righteousness guards the man of integrity, but wickedness overthrows the sinner. Every choice we make for good brings us closer to God. While every choice for evil does the exact opposite. Right decisions are a reflection of our integrity and brings us security and safety from evil.

2015 Day 272 – Proverbs 6

Goodness, Obedience, Protection, Wisdom

We cannot play with temptation and expect to avoid sin indefinitely. Just like playing with fire we will eventually get burned. Proverbs 6:27 says, Can a man scoop fire into his lap without his clothes being burned? If we avoid the temptation of sin, we avoid sin altogether. Let us not kid ourselves into thinking we are able to be around temptation and not sin. The best prevention against sinning is to avoid the temptation surrounding it.

2015 Day 74 – One Man’s Special Delivery

Blessings, Goodness, Reflection, Servant

I came across this video last week while I was watching “CBS Sunday Morning”. It struck me as so special that two men wanted to make a difference in the world in what some would call a small way. But to one man, it made all the difference in the world. I hope you enjoy it as much as I did.

2014 Day 337 – Mark 12

Glory, Goodness, Righteousness, Servant

When asked, Jesus gave the perfect answer to which of the commandments is most important in Mark 12:30-31, 30 Love the Lord you God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength. 31 The second is this: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’ There is no commandment greater than these. God’s laws are not hard. They can be boiled down to two simple things; love God and love others. When we love God and genuinely care for others, then you have fulfilled the intent of the Ten Commandments and bring glory to God.

Goodness

As we approach the Christmas season, I thought this ad by Sainsbury (a British supermarket chain) would be a great reminder of what the feeling of this season is really supposed to be like.
