I Know that Person
Listen to Today's Devotion In Luke 24:49 (TLB) Jesus said, “And now I will send the Holy Spirit upon you, just as my Father promised.” Who is the Holy Spirit? God as Father? We comprehend that image. God as Jesus, the Son? That idea is manageable as well. But God as Spirit? That word itself is mystical. One day, I read the words Jesus used to describe the Holy Spirit: comforter and friend. I know that Person. That was three decades ago. I no longer think of the Holy Spirit as “the Holy Who?” I now call him...

For Your Down Days
Listen to Today's Devotion How do you handle your tough times? When you’re tired of trying, tired of forgiving, tired of hard weeks, or hard-headed people—how do you manage your dark days? With a bottle of pills? Alcohol? A day at the spa? Many opt for such treatments. So many, in fact, we assume they reenergize the sad life. But do they? They numb the pain, but do they remove it? We like sheep follow each other off the ledge, falling headlong into bars and binges and beds. Is there a better solution? Inde...

Leave It in God’s Hands
Listen to Today's Devotion It’s one thing to give grace to friends, but to give grace to those who give us grief? Most of us find it hard to forgive. Leave your enemies in God’s hands. You’re not endorsing their misbehavior when you do. You can hate what someone did without letting hatred consume you. Forgiveness is not excusing. Give grace, but if need be, keep your distance. You can forgive the abusive husband without living with him. Be quick to give mercy to the immoral pastor, but be slow to give him a pu...

Because We’ve Been Given Grace
Listen to Today's Devotion Forgiveness is not foolishness. Forgiveness, at its core, is choosing to see your offender with different eyes. By the way, how can we grace-recipients do anything less? Dare we ask God for grace when we refuse to give it? This is a huge issue in Scripture. Jesus was tough on sinners who refused to forgive other sinners. Remember his story in Matthew 18 about the servant, freshly forgiven a debt of millions, who refused to forgive a debt equal to a few dollars? He stirred the wrath of God: “You evil servant! I f...

Perfect Justice
Listen to Today's Devotion God occupies the only seat on the supreme court of heaven. He wears the robe and refuses to share the gavel. Paul wrote in Romans 12:19 (MSG), “Don’t insist on getting even; that’s not for you to do. ‘I’ll do the judging,’ says God. ‘I’ll take care of it.’” Vigilantes displace and replace God. “I’m not sure you can handle this one, Lord. You may punish too little or too slowly. I’ll take this into my hands, thank you.” Is this what you want to say? Jesus didn’t. No one...

Not Out of God’s Reach
Listen to Today's Devotion Some years ago a Rottweiler attacked our golden retriever puppy at a kennel. The animal climbed out of its run and into Molly’s and nearly killed her. I wrote a letter to the dog’s owner, urging him to put the dog to sleep. But when I showed the letter to the kennel owner, she begged me to reconsider. “What the dog did was horrible, but I’m still training him. I’m not finished with him yet.” God would say the same about the Rottweiler who attacked you. “What he did was una...

Make God Your Refuge
Listen to Today's Devotion Refuge is a favorite word of David’s. You’ll count as many as forty-plus appearances in some Bible versions. But never did David use the word more poignantly than in Psalm 57. The introduction to the passage explains its background: “A song of David when he fled from Saul into the cave.” Lost in shadows and thought, he has nowhere to turn. Go home, he endangers his family; to the tabernacle, he imperils the priests. Saul will kill him. Here he sits, all alone. But then he remembers he’s not. And from the...

The stink stuck! Yours can do the same. Linger too long in the stench of your hurt, and you’ll smell like the toxin you despise. The better option? Join with David as he announces, “The Lord lives.
