Every time an Israelite thought of the bones of Joseph, he thought, “We are to go out of this country one day.” Perhaps he was a man prospering in business, laying up store in Egypt, but he would say to himself, “I shall have to part with this; Joseph’s bones are to be carried up; I am not to be here…

Two men are going along a road, and they have a dog behind them. I do not know to whom that dog belongs, but I’ll tell you directly. They are coming to a crossroads. One goes to the right, the other goes to the left. Now, which man does the dog follow? That is his master. Now, when Christ and the world…

The man who waits until he shall find it easier to bear the yoke of obedience is like the woodman who found his bundle of wood too heavy for his idle shoulder. Placing it upon the ground, he gathered more wood and added to the bundle, then tried it. But finding it still an unpleasant load, he repeated…

In the clear atmosphere of Menton, France, I have sometimes stood on quite a lofty mountain and seen a friend down in the valley. I have spoken his name, and at first it was greatly to my astonishment when he replied, “Where are you?” I held a conversation with him readily. I could not have actually…

We have sometimes heard of a brother who has become great and rich in the world. He has some poor brother or some distant relative, and when he sees him in the street he is obliged to speak to him and own him. I dare say he wished him a long way off, especially if some rich acquaintance happened to be…

All things here pass away. I cannot tell you the strange joy I felt after the earthquake at Menton, France. I had been to see many of the houses that had been shaken down, and the two churches that were greatly injured, and I was full of the earthquake. I had quite realized its terrors and its power,…

DREAMS The creator of Veggie Tales, Phil Vischer, recently told a crowd of Christian journalists the Lord used bankruptcy to humble him to pursue God rather than a dream.

November 25, 2002 Bonnie entered our lives like a whirlwind. Gary, a friend of Ryan, my oldest son, moved in with us in the winter of 1997. A Brit by birth he spoke with an English accent and a sparkle in his eyes. But that sparkle glistened when he spoke of Bonnie. Finally, we met her. What a smile!…

*ILLUSTRATION: In the 1940s, Samuel Beckett wrote a play called Waiting for Godot, which is now regarded as a classic. Two men stand on an empty stage, hands in their pockets, staring at each other. All they do is stand and stare. There is no action, no plot, they just stand there waiting for Godot to…

Misplaced Faith In April 1988 the evening news reported on a photographer who was a skydiver. He had jumped from a plane along with numerous other skydivers and filmed the group as they fell and opened their parachutes.

“I have found that there are three stages in every great work of God: first, it is impossible, then it is difficult, then it is done. God’s work is not man working for God; it is God’s own work, though often wrought through man’s hands.” Source: Baptist Vision, January 2009.

"I would recommend you either believe God up to the hilt, or elso not to believe at all. Believe this book of God, every letter of it, or else reject it. There is no logical standing place between the two. Be satisfied with nothing less than a faith that swims in the deeps of divine revelation; a faith…

Faith in antagonism to common sense is fanaticism, and common sense in antagonism to faith is rationalism. The life of faith brings the two into a right relation. . . Faith is the whole man rightly related to God by the power of the Spirit of Jesus Christ. Chambers, O. (1993, c1935). My utmost for his…

| In my experience, signs follow decisions. The way you overcome spiritual inertia and produce spiritual momentum is by making tough decisions. And the tougher the decision, the more potential momentum it will produce. The primary reason most of us don't see God moving is simply because we aren't moving.…

But there was a calling on his life. From the day he became aware of anything, his mother taught him that he was not…

What if you lived each day with faith in Christ? During periods of great change, answers do not last very long but a question is worth a lot. The word question is derived from the Latin quaerere (to seek), which is the same root as the word quest. Jon Collins of Stanford's Graduate School of Business…
