In Our Hearts
Those of us who are Christians, who are followers of Jesus Christ, know that we are to emulate him. We are to be like him in character, words, attitudes and deeds. We are his body, his representatives to the world around us, and to one another. As his body, we are his hands, his feet and his...- Sue J Love

We Once Walked
And you were dead in the trespasses and sins in which you once walked, following the course of this world, following the prince of the power of the air, the spirit that is now at work in the sons of disobedience— among whom we all once lived in the passions of our flesh, carrying out the desires...- Sue J Love

Free in Christ
What does it mean to be “free in Christ”? Truly it means our sins are forgiven and we are no longer under condemnation. Amen. And, if we are in Christ, by faith in him, we, thus, have the hope of eternal life with God in glory. But, is there more to this freedom than that? The Lord Jesus led me...- Sue J Love

Something Skipped
Have you found yourself in a spiral of sin, confess, sin, confess, sin, confess, but you never seem to progress past that?

What Changed?
When you believed in Jesus Christ to be Lord and Savior of your life, what difference did that make in your life? What immediately changed? How was your life different from what it was before you believed? Or, did believing in Jesus make a significant difference in your life? And, then, as you...- Sue J Love

Our Confidence
The Apostle Paul said we should put no confidence in the flesh, and then he went on to list the ways in which he had done that (Phil. 3:3b-6). But, I would like it if we could think of the ways in which we put confidence in the flesh, not just in our own flesh, but in the flesh of humankind, in...- Sue J Love

A Common Thread
If you, being a follower of Jesus Christ, were to write a testimony of what difference Jesus Christ has made in your life, what would that say? Surely, each of our testimonies would be as individual as we are, but there should also be a common thread weaved throughout all of them. The Lord...- Sue J Love

Outside the Box
Has God ever called you to do something, or to a ministry, which was “outside the box”? To something unconventional by human standards? To something that didn’t fit in with the norms of institutional religion? And, you knew, that by accepting this call on your life, that you were going to face...- Sue J Love

Enslaved Again?
Do you lay claims to being a follower of Jesus Christ? Does your walk match your talk? Or are you, behind closed doors, someone else entirely? The Lord Jesus led me to read Galatians 4 (Select vv.

The Lord Jesus led me to read John 14 (vv. 1-6 NASB). “Do not let your heart be troubled; believe in God, believe also in Me.” V. 1 When we are born into this world, we are born with sin natures, in slavery to sin, separate from God, and we all fall short of attaining God’s divine approval, in...- Sue J Love

A God Void
When we are born into this world, we are born with sin natures. We all fall short of attaining God’s divine approval, in our own flesh, because we have all sinned against God (Rom. 3:23). Thus, there is a God void in our lives. Although Adam and Eve, when first created by God, were in perfect...- Sue J Love

His Goodness to Us
The Lord Jesus led me to read John 17 (vv. 1-19 ESV). Jesus Christ, the Son of God, when he walked this earth, was fully God yet fully man. He suffered just like we suffer, and he was tempted in like manner as we are also tempted, yet without sin. Although, when on the earth, he healed the sick...- Sue J Love
