Psalm 37:8-10

8 Refrain from anger and turn from wrath;
   do not fret—it leads only to evil.
9 For those who are evil will be destroyed,
   but those who hope in the LORD will inherit the land.

 10 A little while, and the wicked will be no more;
   though you look for them, they will not be found.

Sometimes when I get home for the day I am full of anger and pain. It gets worse when I think about all the stuff that is on my mind. All the problems that I have to face every day from every direction. It all seems like too much to handle. The weight is too large for me to carry. In these times I must pray again and come to the lord. I love the Psalms, because David had to fight these very same fights, and the lord was with him too.

We must be careful not to let anger overtake us and destroy our capacity to do good. Anger is like a disease that the devil delights in. He uses it to cloud our vision and corrupt everything we do. Please lord let us not forget your true love for us and help us to shed the anger of the devil everyday. In your holy name help us, Amen!

The Danger in Being a Christian: It began as a Jewish sect; fierce persecution only helped it spread Today's reading: Acts 8 Acts 8:1 On that day a great persecution broke out against the church at Jerusalem, and all except the apostles were scattered throughout Judea and Samaria. In some countries, a person who becomes a Christian forfeits a good education and job. And in a few countries, a person who converts risks his or her life. One church historian estimates that more Christians were martyred in the twentieth century than in all preceding centuries put together. Yet, strangely, more often than not, intense persecution of Christians leads to a spurt of growth in the church. An ancient saying expresses this phenomenon: "The blood of martyrs is the seed of the church." The First Big Advance For a while, the new faith enjoyed popular favor. But very soon it involved grave risk. In the book of Acts, the persecution that produced the first Christian martyr, St...

Recompensas celestiales

Leer | LUCAS 14.12-14 22 de junio de 2012 Los niños no son los únicos a quienes les gusta ser recompensados. Nuestro Creador sabe que también los adultos son motivados por los incentivos. Es por eso que encontramos promesas en su Palabra para quienes andan en sus caminos. Algunos de estos beneficios están al alcance en este mundo --como son el sentimiento de realización, el gozo y el favor de otros--, mientras que otras bendiciones se concederán en el cielo. Como creyentes, no tenemos que temer al juicio (Ro 8.1); estamos vestidos con salvación por la sangre de Jesús, y no enfrentaremos la ira divina. Pero el Señor determinará el valor de nuestras obras, y qué recompensa merecemos. Para ayudarnos a entender esto, la Biblia habla de cuatro coronas. La primera, llamada incorruptible , es dada a aquellos cuyo deseo es andar en obediencia delante de Dios. En medio de luchas e incluso de fracasos, siguen muriendo a la carne y obedeciendo al Espíritu. La segunda, la corona de...
