Spend it Wisely

October 13, 2009 By admin

“Yesterday is a canceled check; tomorrow is a promissory note; today is the only cash you have, so spend it wisely.”

–Kay Lyons

Sometimes we obsess over everything but what we can actually control. The past with its regrets is beyond our reach and the future is unknown. Yet these two unreachable realms are what we long for. Anything but the present. The secret to happiness and success lie in making today our preferred destination.

As you go through this day, invest your interests, memories and plans in your present activities and the rest will take care of itself.

Dangerous Faith

September 23, 2009 By admin

“What’s dangerous about the world today is not belief in God or unbelief but ruthless certainty.”

–Lisa Miller, Newsweek Magazine

The only thing we should be ruthless about is our passion to love God and the people He calls us to serve. Unfortunately, some see themselves as chosen by God to eradicate all evil (which often means imposing their beliefs and opinions upon others against their will). History is replete with examples of monarchs, dictators and leaders who have tried to force faith. It has always resulted in some form of persecution.

We have only to remember what happened in the Dark Ages when the Church tried to impose their definition of truth upon the people of Europe. You can read about the devastating results in J.A. Wylie’s History of Protestantism.

1 Excerpt from Newsweek, Moderates Storm the Religious Battlefield, p. 89, January 7, 2007

Being Wrong

August 17, 2009 By admin

 “We live an age when no man of importance ever admits that he is wrong.”

–J. B. Priestley

Evidently, some who have achieved significant positions of status view it as an admission of fallibility and human frailty to admit they are capable of making errors. This is why we don’t often hear politicians say, “I did it, it was my mistake. I shouldn’t have voted for that bill.”

When my children were small I remember how hard it was to acknowledge mistakes I made as a parent. When I lost my temper or said unkind words, I asked for their forgiveness. But admitting I had made mistakes was tough. Parents are supposed to know better; they’re old enough to have “already learned.”
   
Rather than it being a sign of weakness, our admission of error is actually a sign of strength. When we acknowledge our mistakes we remove ourselves from the impossible pedestal of perfection and admit that we are indeed part of the human race. Everyone else already knows it, but our acceptance of this reality gives credibility and authenticity to who we are.

Whether you’re position is one of prominence or low profile, people are watching how you handle life’s twists and turns.

A Distorted Gospel

July 28, 2009 By admin

“Unless the church of the Lord Jesus creates a counter-current to the drift of materialism, self-indulgence, and nationalism, Christians will merely adapt to the secular environment in a tragic distortion of the gospel, in which the words of Jesus are reinterpreted to mean anything, everything, and nothing.”

–Brennan Manning

Actually, this is exactly what has happened to Christianity in the West, and most certainly North America. Our culture is based on consuming things (lots of things). We throw away resources, including food, like there is no tomorrow. We worship at the alter of convenience and show little concern for how we treat the earth and its inhabitants.

Of all people, Christians should be conservative when it comes to the world and its limited supply of resources. As divinely appointed stewards, one day we will have to give an account for our actions and attitudes of wasteful consumption.

May God free us from the idea that our value is determined by how much we own!
