HOW SHOULD YOU SPEND YOUR DAYS?

You may sometimes wonder: How can I become who God has created for me to be, and how can I fulfill His awesome plans for my life? Part of it is about staying obedient. But it’s also important to admit we’re imperfect, give up control, and serve Him faithfully. Dr. Stanley reflects on the passing of his friend Ravi Zacharias and points us to the best investment we could ever make, which is to invest our time wisely by being God’s faithful servants—always dwelling on Him and praising His magnificent name.

WE’RE ALL IN NEED OF SOME MERCY

Forgiving your haters

A merciful heart is something you bring wherever you go. In this Bible study, you’ll see how a hated man did what he could with what he had and thereby saved another man’s life.

In a world of suffering, mercy is a powerful gift

What the world needs

A scan of the news (or any social media feed) typically leaves us with the sense that the world could do with a bit more mercy. But why would something that could so obviously help our chaotic world be so hard to come by?

See how Jesus walked with compassion

Generous in spirit

God doesn’t allow suffering in your life merely to teach you compassion. But if you’ve struggled, you know what it feels like to have the gift of kindness extended to you, and that makes you more inclined to do the same for others.

You reflect the character of God when you show mercy

THIS WEEK FROM DR. STANLEY

Meditate or move?

Biblical meditation is characterized by a thorough and thoughtful consideration of what God is saying to us. But sometimes He may call us to do more than simply listen and learn. Watch as Dr. Stanley explains what to do when we need the Lord’s courage to act.

What Scripture says about obeying

70 times seven

Has somebody hurt you—yesterday, a year ago, or a lifetime ago? You didn’t deserve it, and you can’t forget it. The pain remains in your heart and the memory stuck in your mind like concrete. And just when you think it’s all over and gone, it crops back up again.

Listen as Dr. Stanley talks about how to forgive past wounds

What they see

The environment in which children grow up influences the rest of their lives. In today’s devotion, you’ll see that if you want your family members to desire God, then you must live according to His will.

Our families should see us turning to the Lord for strength and comfort
