    What Do You Want The Lord to Do for You?

    “What do you want Me to do for you?” He said, “Lord, that I may receive my sight.” —Luke 18:41

    Is there something in your life that not only disturbs you, but makes you a disturbance to others? If so, it is always something you cannot handle yourself. “Then those who went before warned him that he should be quiet; but he cried out all the more…” (Luke 18:39). Be…

    “Do You Now Believe?”

    “By this we believe….” Jesus answered them, “Do you now believe?” —John 16:30-31

    “Now we believe….” But Jesus asks, “Do you…? Indeed the hour is coming…that you…will leave Me alone” (John 16:31-32). Many Christian workers have left Jesus Christ alone and yet tried to serve Him out of a sense of duty, or because they sense a need as a result of their…

    Like a Little Child

    One evening many years ago, after saying a goodnight prayer with our two-year-old daughter, my wife was surprised by a question. “Mommy, where is Jesus?” 

    Luann replied, “Jesus is in heaven and He’s everywhere, right here with us. And He can be in your heart if you ask Him to come in.”

    “I want Jesus to be in my heart.”

    “One of these days you can ask Him.”

    “I want to ask Him to be in my heart now.”

     So our little girl said, “Jesus, please come into my heart and be with me.”  And that started her faith journey with Him.

That’s why the author of Hebrews placed his emphasis on standing strong in the faith, and it’s why this book is one of the most valuable and encouraging to Christians in every age.
