"The joy of the LORD is your strength" (Nehemiah 8.10). So this Scripture goes to the heart of the believer's motives, does it not? :)

Okay so especially for those who want to quit smoking or have been successful in quitting or in never starting in the first place, did you ever have a parent or a grandparent who smoked? and were you influenced one way or another by this?

@Karin12414 's comment on another thread brought me to think about Psalm 111: 111 Praise ye the Lord. I will praise the Lord with my whole heart, in the assembly of the upright, and in the congregation. 2 The works of the Lord are great, sought out of all them that have pleasure therein. 3...

"Who hath believed our report? and to whom is the arm of the Lord revealed? 2 For he shall grow up before him as a tender plant, and as a root out of a dry ground: he hath no form nor comeliness; and when we shall see him, there is no beauty that we should desire him. 3 He is despised and...

Okay, so another question: Who plays the piano? :)

So it will soon be the season to send Christmas cards. Email has caused this custom to decline somewhat. But a lot of ppl still do it. I think it's a great way to keep in touch and to have the opportunity to affirm a relevant Bible text about the glorious Incarnation!

This is a strong message in Ecclesiastes: there is 'no new thing under the sun'. It seems that the Preacher is stating the case of how things are apart from the grace of God. For those who love and trust the Lord Jesus, we have been 'surprised by joy' and 'where sin abounded, grace did much...

"Can two walk together, except they be agreed?" (Amos 3.3)

The Acts of the Apostles is sometimes referred to as the Acts of the Holy Spirit, in this fast moving account of the spread of the Gospel in the days of the early church at and after Pentecost. Acts 2.41-42 continues to be a wholesome norm for activities of Christians today: "Then they that...
