To Look Past Your Pain

By sevenapples | December 5, 2018 |

2 Corinthians 4:16-18 We never give up. How could we! Even though on the outside it often looks like things are falling apart on us, on the inside, where God is making new life, not a day goes by without his unfolding grace. These hard times are small potatoes compared to the coming good times,…

God, for whom and through whom everything was made, chose to bring many children into glory. And it was only right that he should make Jesus, through his suffering, a perfect leader, fit to bring them into their salvation. So now Jesus and the ones he makes holy have the same Father. That is why…

Let us run with endurance the race God has set before us. We do this by keeping our eyes on Jesus, who both began and finished the race. Study how he did it. And because he never lost sight of where he was headed— that exhilarating finish with God— he could put up with anything…

By sevenapples | September 16, 2017 |

Devote yourselves to prayer with an alert mind and a thankful heart. Pray for us, too, that God will give us many opportunities to speak about his mysterious plan concerning Christ. That is why I am here in chains. Pray that I will proclaim this message as clearly as I should. Live wisely among those…

To Live In Awe And Wonder

By sevenapples | May 29, 2017 |

In this life, good people are often treated as though they were wicked, and wicked people are often treated as though they were good. This is so meaningless! So I heartily recommend pursuing joy, for the best a person can do under the sun is to enjoy life. Eat, drink, and be happy. If this…
