by Donna Ware · Luke 1:38 · Control
The world is changing and we lose control, but the real issue isn't controlling as it is yielding to the one in control.
by Tom Norvell · John 14:30-31 · Satan · Addiction
Don't you wish you could say, like Jesus said, that the devil or Satan has no hold on you?
by Rubel Shelly · Proverbs 14:12 · Surrender
We are not God, we are not in control, and so we need to surrender and let God take control of our lives.
by Mike Barres · 1 Corinthians 6:19-20 · Self-control
We need to recognize that we get a little stupid and out of control when we are tired and so we should do something to prevent it!
by Alan Smith · Luke 6:39-40 · Lord
If anyone controls our life but Jesus, then our life is headed for disaster.
by Alan Smith · Proverbs 17:28 · Speech
Sometimes we need to keep our mouths shut and not say a word!
by Mike Barres · Matthew 5:13-16 · Christian Living · Leadership · Character
We can be situation complainers -- thermostats -- or situation changers -- thermometers; Jesus' will, however, is that we be salt, light, and examples who display the fruit of the Spirit.
