We’re tempted to seek revenge or retribution. Or at least to get them before they can get us. But Genesis shifts our focus away from them and back onto our purpose. “I will bless those who bless you, and the one who curses you I will curse, and in you all the families of the earth shall be blessed.” (Genesis 12:3) At first glance, this verse appears to tell us to leave revenge to God. But a deeper reading places the emphasis elsewhere—not on those who oppose us, but on the calling God has given us. There will always be people who oppose us. Vigilance is appropriate. But we cannot allow our identities to be defined by them. Our attention belongs elsewhere: on who we are, and on how we are called to bless the world. I’m Horace McMillon. This is 60 Seconds of Hope.

When We Want To Get Better

Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2295449/fan_mail/new] When We Want To Get Better Sometimes when we want to get better, we begin by taking an honest look at ourselves. “Search me, O God, and know my heart; test me and know my thoughts… and lead me in the way everlasting.” — from Psalm 139:23–24 The psalmist wasn’t asking God to search the hearts of friends or family, strangers or enemies. He was asking God to search his own. Growth isn’t about measuring ourselves against other people. It’s about honestly seeing where we are, where we hope to be, and being willing to let God guide us there. I’m Horace McMillon. This is 60 Seconds of Hope.

When Fear Stops Us

Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2295449/fan_mail/new] When Fear Stops Us Sometimes we fear the worst and refuse to try. Romans reminds us that we “did not receive a spirit of slavery to fall back into fear…” — from Romans 8:15. Some of our fears are well founded. We don’t deny the dangers or the risks. But we won’t be paralyzed by them either. Other fears are not well founded, and we refuse to become slaves to them. In both cases, we seek to make reality-based decisions, guided by faith and hope rather than constrained by fear. I’m Horace McMillon. This is 60 Seconds of Hope.
