May 26 ‘…love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, with all your mind, and with all your strength.…’ — Mark 12:30

Loving Christ

Have you had the wonderful experience of falling in love with someone? If you have, then you know how it changes your whole outlook on life. The grass looks greener. Music sounds more beautiful. Everything becomes more positive. If this is true for human love, how much more for divine love? Christ loves us intimately, and He is more than worthy of our affections in return. Since the Son of God came to earth, we have the great privilege of... More

May 25 ‘…My people have forgotten Me days without number.’ — Jeremiah 2:32

Let Us Remember

Do you know anyone—a relative, a friend, a hometown hero—who has given his or her life for our country? Memorial Day is a day when we remember those who have made that ultimate sacrifice, who have given their lives that we might enjoy the freedom we have in America today. How easily we forget the terror that filled the hearts of young men when they landed on the beaches of strange islands they had never heard of. How easily we... More

May 24 ‘But he was angry, and would not go in…’ — Luke 15:28

The Older Brother

After the prodigal son had returned to his father, there was great rejoicing. Everyone celebrated the prodigal’s return…everyone, that is, except the older brother. Instead, he moped, and he lashed out at his father for celebrating his brother’s return. We can put sin into two categories: sins of the flesh, which the prodigal son embodied, and sins of the disposition, which are typified by the older brother. Pride was the... More

May 23 ‘And he arose, and came to his father. But when he was still a great way off, his father saw him and had compassion, and ran and fell on his neck and kissed him.’ — Luke 15:20

The Love Of The Father

Do you remember the last time you waited to see someone dear to you? Perhaps your best friend from childhood visited you from a faraway place. Maybe a child came home from college. Whoever it was, how did you feel when that person finally arrived? The joy we feel at a reunion with a cherished family member or friend is just the tiniest reflection of our heavenly Father’s joy when one of His lost children returns to Him. We get a... More

May 22 ‘ …the younger son gathered all together, journeyed to a far country, and there wasted his possessions with prodigal living.’ — Luke 15:13

The Far Country

Someone once said that people can be divided into two types: givers and takers. The prodigal son in Christ’s parable was most definitely a taker. We can paraphrase his first words in the parable as “Gimme. Gimme the goods that fall to me.” “Gimme” is his attitude and the attitude of millions of people in our world today. So the father divided the wealth and gave the son his living. With his newly acquired... More

May 21 Then He said, ‘A certain man had two sons.’ — Luke 15:11

The Prodigal Son

Author Charles Dickens, who knew a great tale when he heard it, remarked that the greatest story in all literature was the parable of the prodigal son. For the next few days, we’ll examine this story that earned such distinction. To begin our examination, let’s briefly review the story. You will recall that the parable is about a father and his two sons. The younger son came to his father, asking for his share of his... More

May 20 Be not misled: ‘Bad company corrupts good character.' — 1 Corinthians 15:33, NIV

Who Are Your Friends?

We are all influenced by each other, and our ideas, thoughts and even mannerisms are shaped by the people around us. Who we choose as friends is critical in terms of who we ultimately become. Choosing godly friends will build us up in the faith and help us to become godly. Conversely, choosing ungodly friends will pull us down. From the beginning of time, peer pressure has been a major factor in leading people astray. The book of Proverbs... More
