Welcoming the Child
Jesus isn't interested in who we say is the greatest or even in who acts
like the greatest or looks to be great. Jesus is interested in who acts with
the greatest grace, compassion, and love. ...
4.
Kingdom Greatness
Christians must cast off dreams of power or status and, like a child, admit
their ultimate dependence on God for all things. Rather than seek status in
the eyes of men, they should rely more and more on the Father. ...

The Value of Children
It's wonderful to know that God loves all His children very much, young and old.
That is why we should love each other, and not overlook anyone who believes in
Jesus. ...

Let the Children Come to Jesus
You and I are also the children who are coming to Jesus. And he

God only as little children, being given to, trusting in and receiving from our

Food: Coffee Talk

espresso can give 30 -45 mg. caffeine. But, higher the roast, higher the bitterness
too, and hence also demands more
sugar. Most Indian coffees are roasted to low or medium range. ...

Family Special: The Beautiful Faith of Fearless Submission
God designed the relationship between a husband and his wife to represent
the relationship between Christ and the church. This is the deepest meaning
of marriage. And that is why ultimately the roles of headship and submission
are so important. If our marriages are going to tell the truth about Christ
and his church, we cannot be indifferent to the meaning of headship and
submission. ...
11.
Family Special: Beauty in Submission
The goal is not a dominating husband, but a godly husband. God-shaped
submission makes the people around us better, not worse. Furthermore, even
if an unsaved husband never responds to Christ, the Christian wife may grow
in such beautiful godliness that others will be attracted to Christ. ...

Self Improvement: The Secret to Making Habits Stick
The story you tell yourself about your habit matters more than most people

So the key is to shape the story, become your own habit storyteller, and create
a story that will make you more likely to stick to the habit. ...
