Philippians 4:10-13 Paul starts here by showing thanks and rejoicing in the believers of Philippi. They are a church who have always had a love for Paul, and Paul always had a love for them. He then tells us that he is content and that He can do all things through Christ. It is interesting to me that contentment and a reliance on Christ go together. He actually says it is the secret. This whole bo...  Read More

Gratitude is the key to everything in life! If you’re a grateful person, you will work hard. If you’re a grateful person, you will love deeply. If you’re a grateful person, you will sacrifice for a cause. It’s the product of true joy. The kind of attitude that fully trusts God no matter what circumstances come your way. That is how the Apostle Paul ends his love letter to the Philippians. He remin...  Read More

You begin asking yourself, what can I do to stop this from happening?  However, it's not just the world that is like this; what about in your workplace? Are you the type of person who, when you see a task u...  Read More

Philippians 4:9I love chapter 4 of Philippians. Paul touches on so many things in this chapter. Rejoicing, anxiety, thought patterns, and contentment. Our verse for today, though, is about learning from Paul's example and putting it into practice. We all should have role models in our lives! For the Philippians and many other churches, it was Paul. We, too, can look to Paul as an example in our fa...  Read More
