Good Words for Today





Jesus will give you everything you need to do everything he calls you to do.
God helps those who can’t help themselves and aren’t ashamed to admit it.



Death cannot cancel the promises of God.




“Even if everyone else deserts you, I will never desert you” (Matthew 26:33 NLT). Peter meant it, but less than five hours later he denied Christ. Don't brag about how strong you are. Apart from Jesus, you are as weak as Peter, and so am I.







"A man may study everything else in the world, but if he does not study the Word of God he is not fit for real work for God." R. A. Torrey
"Without Jesus, we approach life with the expectation of death. With Jesus, we approach death with the expectation of life." Nabeel Qureshi
Lord, teach me to pray and give me a heart for prayer so that when I am gone, people will remember that I prayed for them. Amen.
"When I consider my unworthiness, fearing He would grow weary of carrying me, I return to this-He did not go through all this to abandon me." R. C. Sproul, Jr.
We are not condemned because we struggle. The sin is in giving in, not in the fight itself.
Never be ashamed of the blood of Christ. We can't go to heaven without it.
You don't have to answer every email or every text or every comment. Think before you hit the Post button. Don't add to the anger
"Lord, make me an instrument of your peace. Where there is hatred, let me sow love. Amen."
"A good character is the best tombstone. Those who loved you and were helped by you will remember you when forget-me-nots have withered. Carve your name on hearts, not on marble." Charles Spurgeon
Lay hold of God's mercy. There's plenty to go around. A fresh supply just arrived from heaven this morning.
"Not a burden we bear, not a sorrow we share, But our toil He doth richly repay. Not a grief or a loss, not a frown or a cross, But is blessed if we trust and obey."
When people ask about the “secret” of God’s will, I tell them it begins when you say, “Lord, let me take the next step with you today."
Your enemies may have meant it for evil, but God still means it for good. Their malicious hatred cannot overcome God's faithfulness to you.
It's better to be faithful and unpopular than cowardly and loved by all.
Sometimes we think, "I wish so-and-so would hear this sermon." You probably need it more than they do. Take heed to your own soul first.
Lord, thank you for closed doors that kept me from going in the wrong direction. Amen.
"Everyone wants to save the world, but no one wants to do the dishes." Michael Horton
