Enjoying God Final Week – Under the hood

In daily repentance and faith we can enjoy God’s freedom

When we let someone down, we can feel embarrassed and ashamed, which can lead to avoiding the other person.

In every word we can enjoy the Spirit’s voice

If we are honest, we don’t often delight to read our Bibles and pray. This can lead to us not finding the time and doing other things. The purpose that we give to these tasks can make all the difference. Instead of reading the Bible and praying as a transfer Read more…

In every pain we can enjoy the Son’s presence

Jesus’s character does not change over time. So, we know what Jesus is like now because we know what he was like when he was living here on earth. As we read the Gospels, we discover not only what Jesus was like but also what he is like now. We Read more…

In every failure we can enjoy the Son’s grace

This week we are focussing on Jesus and what he has done for us. We can think of Jesus as being ahead of us. Jesus is leading the way for us to follow. Jesus asks everything of us, but he asks nothing of us that he himself has not first Read more…

In every prayer we can enjoy the Father’s welcome

The term kindness can be really helpful when thinking about God the Father. Let the word play on your imagination. God is kind. He shows us kindness. Substitute it for other words you might use. Instead of saying, “God answered my prayer” say “My Father has been kind to me Read more…
