Dear children, keep away from anything that might take God's place in your hearts.  1 John 5:21. With Jesus in our heart the door to our past hurts, failings and pains has been shut. Instead, He fills our heart with joy and hope for an eternal future with Him- that starts now. He is our peace in the midst of every storm, He is our strength in our times of weakness, and He makes the impossible possible in our life. When we keep our eyes on Him, He becomes our confidence. When

I want you to show love, not offer sacrifices. I want you to know me more than I want burnt offerings. Hosea 6:6. God wants relationship, not religion. He wants us to know Him, His ways and His heart rather than religious observance. It's in our relationship with Jesus that He fills us so full with His love that it will overflow to touch the hurting, to help those in need and to be there for those who are struggling. Real Christianity is when we let God's love flow through us

All who declare that Jesus is the Son of God have God living in them, and they live in God. We know how much God loves us, and we have put our trust in his love. God is love, and all who live in love live in God, and God lives in them. And as we live in God, our love grows more perfect. 1 John 4:15-17a. When we invite Jesus into our heart there is a divine exchange- our worst for His best. He fills us with His love in such a way that we begin to see others differently, and we

This is real love-not that we loved God, but that he loved us and sent his Son as a sacrifice to take away our sins. Dear friends, since God loved us that much, we surely ought to love each other. 1 John 4:10-11.  We can love one another because God loved us first. He showed us the way to love with a heart of compassion and a desire to see us live life to our fullest potential. He sent Jesus into the world to pay a price that we couldn't pay so that we could be made right wit

In the end, people appreciate honest criticism far more than flattery. Proverbs 28:23. People are far more grateful for those who are honest, who will share their thoughts, rather than for those who use flattery to be avoid difficult conversations. Honest criticism should be given in wisdom where knowledge is knowing what to say but wisdom is knowing how and when to say it. People will readily accept a word of criticism or reprimand when given with care and compassion rather

We proclaim to you the one who existed from the beginning, whom we have heard and seen. We saw him with our own eyes and touched him with our own hands. He is the Word of life. This one who is life itself was revealed to us, and we have seen him. And now we testify and proclaim to you that he is the one who is eternal life. He was with the Father, and then he was revealed to us. 1 John 1:1-2. Jesus came to earth to reconcile humanity back to God, so that we could be made rig
