Days have a way of blending into each other. The repetition of life dulls our senses until our world can become gray. But like refreshing rain, God gives us splashes of joy to color our world and to help us see with new eyes.

Whatever it is that you do—do it well. Do it with purpose. Do it for Him. And at the end of the day, you can say, “It was good.”

We are messed-up people. Even when we try to do good, our evil hearts are still corrupt. But Jesus knows.

Whether breaking bread around a table or coming together around the Word of God, it’s good to be with other believers. We find common ground, encouragement, and happy hearts. Fellowship is one of God’s greatest gifts to His children.

We all have our own agenda. We want certain things, and God even invites us to pray very specifically, right? 

When the storms of life rage, remember He is with you. When you struggle until you have no energy left to give, He is with you. When you feel alone and think that God doesn’t care, He is with you. So take heart . . . He is with you!

You have been changed, given new life. You’ve tasted what is good and real and true. So live free.

God formed the earth, created everything in it, and knows every detail of His masterpiece. He is perfect and powerful, yet He wants to know you intimately. He wants you to call on Him, and He will be your protector. Your rescuer. Your refuge.

God not only created us and knows us, but He is in tune to our every thought and emotion.

God created the universe and everything in it. He holds it all in His powerful hands—stars, oceans, time, us. Yet He bends down and invites us to be family. Family! Take Him up on His offer. This is the first in a series of videos for Gospel Here & Now. Go to gospelhereandnow.org to find out more.
