Give.

                                                                                  Give.   A First Step In Receiving.  Give and it shall be given to you.  A good measure, pressed down, shaken together and running over, “will be” poured into your lap.  For with the measure you use, “it will be” measured to you.  (Luke 6:38) Our God is a God of equal weights and equal measure.  What we Give, “determines” What we Receive.  Good and Bad. Our Daily Nugget is Luke giving us Wisdom on what happens when we Give.  When we give good or bad to another person, good or bad will be given back to us, with the same measure or intensity with which we gave it to another.  If we run to help another, God will see to it that another runs to help us; wit...

Chaos.

                                                                                 Chaos.   When Love Leaves, Chaos Enters. I have told you these things, so that “In Me You May Have Peace”.   In this world you will have trouble (chaos).   “But Take Heart”!   “I Have Overcome The World”.   (John 16:33) When Love Enters, Chaos “Must” Leave.   Our Daily Nugget is Jesus “Promising His Followers Peace Through Him”, despite the inevitability of facing tribulation and trouble (chaos) in the world.   Jesus encourages us to “take heart” or “be of good cheer” because “He Has Overcome The World”, offering Hope and Victory over earthly struggles.   Count it All Joy! Chaos “Is Not” Chaotic to the Heart/Mind that is   “Stayed On Jesus”.   Chaos - The s...

Where is Your Reward?

                                                                  Where Is Your Reward? Is Your Reward in “This Life” or the “Life to Come”? Rise up, Lord, confront them, bring them down; with your sword “Rescue Me From The Wicked”.  By your hand “save me” from such people, Lord, from those of this world whose “Reward Is In This Life”.  May what you have stored up for the wicked fill their bellies; may their children gorge themselves on it, and may there be leftovers for their little ones.  (Psalms 17:13&14) If our Reward is in This Life, we will utilize the World’s ways of living;  if our Reward is in the Life to come, we will utilize The Word’s way of living. Reward - A recompense, wages, or return given by God for actions, “whether good or bad”.  Our Rewards are either Life or Death. ...

Perspective!

                                                                             Perspective! The Word or The World? So we “Fix Our Eyes” not on what is seen, but on what is unseen, since what is seen is temporary (not real), but what is unseen is eternal (is real).   (2 Corinthians 4:18) What we Think or Focus On, “Produces Our Perspective”! Our Daily Nugget encourages  “Focusing” on spiritual, everlasting truths rather than temporary earthly struggles.  A wise person thinks about death, a fool thinks about being happy.  Each “Focus” gives us a different Perspective.  To focus on death, encourages us to Live Right today.  To Focus on Being Happy leads us to Live Wrong Today.  Our Living Follows Our Focus.  Our Perspective is our Focus.  Perspec...

Hypocrisy!

                                                                            Hypocrisy! The Hypocrisy of Religious Leaders, Leads People to Hell!   “Woe” to you, teachers of the law and Pharisees, You Hypocrites!   You shut the door of the Kingdom of Heaven in people’s faces.   You yourselves “do not enter”, nor will you let those who are trying to.   “Woe” to you, teachers of the law and Pharisees,   “You Hypocrites”!   You travel over land and sea to win a single convert, “And When You Have Succeeded, You Make Them ‘Twice’ as much a ’Child of Hell’ As You Are”.   (Matthew 23:13-15) We must Confront Hypocrisy with The Bible; “Openly and Publicly”! Our Daily Nugget is a message to Christians that there are “Religious Leaders”, who stand behind the pulpits, every Sund...

Completed Joy.

                                                                       Completed Joy. Being Considerate makes Jesus’ Joy Complete. Then make “My Joy Complete” by being of the “same mind, having the same love, united in spirit, with one purpose”.  Do nothing out of selfishness or conceit, but with “Humility” “Consider” others as more important than yourselves, looking out not only for your own interest but also the interest of others.  Have this “attitude” in yourselves, which was also in Christ.  (Philippians 2:2-5) “Considerate”, Jesus’ Example of “Humility”. To Love we must be Considerate; the Inconsiderate does not Love. It is Impossible to Obey the Command to Love, “If we are Inconsiderate”. Considerate - Being mindful of consequences or circumstance and “Especially  Careful o...
