Book Description
A funny thing happens to you when you get older. Maybe for the first time in your life you think about your mortality. With that newfound realization of the impermanence of human life, you might think about your actual mortal soul. In the last few years I have had that particular realization as have many others, I am sure, who also realized they had wasted their youth in the singular pursuit of pleasure and selfishness. I have even had the effrontery to let hurl from my mouth the outright denial of the existence of an all-powerful and forgiving God. With my acceptance of Jesus Christ as my personal savior and my attempts to align myself with the apparent will of God, I have moved on to an exploration and learning experience of scripture. I am a poet and am compelled to write about my experience and what I've learned. I am hoping that this book is acceptable in the eyes of my God. While many of these poems are influenced by the religious writings of thousands of years past, others are from my own personal inspiration and revelations. I hope you the reader will appreciate at least some of my work. It is the best I have to offer God and the reading public. I hope that both find it pleasing.

Future Grace, Revised Edition
Author: John Piper
Publisher: Multnomah
ISBN: 1601424353
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 450
Book Description
Explore this stunning quality of God’s grace: It never ends! In this revision of a foundational work, John Piper reveals how grace is not only God’s undeserved gift to us in the past, but also God’s power to make good happen for us today, tomorrow, and forever. True life for the follower of Jesus really is a moment-by-moment trust that God is dependable and fulfills his promises. This is living by faith in future grace, which provides God's mercy, provision, and wisdom—everything we need—to accomplish his good plans for us. In Future Grace, chapter by chapter—one for each day of the month—Piper reveals how cherishing the promises of God helps break the power of persistent sin issues like anxiety, despondency, greed, lust, bitterness, impatience, pride, misplaced shame, and more. Ultimate joy, peace, and hope in life and death are found in a confident, continual awareness of the reality of future grace.

Getting Back in the Race
Author: Joel R. Beeke
Publisher: Cruciform Press
ISBN: 1936760371
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 112
Book Description
What is backsliding, really? Is it serious? What can be done about it? The Christian life is a race, a marathon. Through the gospel, God summons us to sustained and persevering effort. He empowers his children by grace--free and undeserved blessing through Christ. But he does not carry them to heaven on flowery beds of ease. Faith is a living, athletic grace. God's mercy motivates Christians and energizes them to press on and overcome great obstacles. Christ blazed the trail before us. He now calls us to follow Him to the end (Hebrews 12:1-2). Looking unto Jesus--that is how we persevere. In him is everything we need. But realistically speaking, Christians are not always pressing forward. Sometimes they wander off the narrow path, slip, and injure themselves. To the confused and injured runner, this book says, "God can help you. You can finish this race--and finish it well." Drawing from the wisdom of the Scriptures and aided by the insights of godly Bible teachers through the centuries, Getting Back in the Race addresses the age-old problem of backsliding. Backsliding is a season in the life of a professing Christian when his sin grows stronger and his obedience to God declines. The beginning of the book uncovers signs of sliding into a spiritual rut, for this is often more subtle than falling into scandalous sins. The rest of the book shows that there is hope for the backslider. God is so amazing! Even though our backsliding insults him, dishonors him, grieves him, and pushes away his love, still he calls us to return to him. When you grasp hold of God's methods by faith, you discover that Christ has grasped hold of you. Our spiritual Physician has potent medicines to heal his people from their injuries and get them back on track to finish the race. This book is a wake-up call to careless Christians and an encouragement to all believers to keep running to the Lord.

The Praying Life
Author: Deborah Smith Douglas
Publisher: Church Publishing, Inc.
ISBN: 0819225614
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 129
Book Description
An invitation to a more participatory relationship with God through the power of prayer. Nothing is more remarkable—or more beautiful—than an ordinary life, quietly transformed by prayer. This is the life that Deborah Smith Douglas chronicles—and invites readers into—in her lovely collection of essays and poems. Drawing from events as simple as breakfast with her five-year-old daughter or waiting in line at the post office, Douglas shows how a loving relationship with God can be nurtured in small ways every day. “Without my ever really intending it,” she writes, “my own life—as a wife and mother, daughter and friend—has taught me to see God hidden in the ordinary, to watch for God under the surface of things as a fisherman watches for fish.” Woven into each of these pieces, along with reflections on the author’s experiences, are guidelines for readers watching for God in their own unique—and ordinary—lives. Divided into four sections—Ways of Praying, Healing, Spiritual Companionship, and Fruitfulness—The Praying Life will help Christians move from awareness of God’s presence in their lives to a deep participation in God’s love.
