Empowered by Knowing God Sees All

Because God perceives all that we do and all that happens to us, we ought to live with a deep confidence in his approval when we do right, and be driven to a speedy repentance when we do wrong.

The Vanity of Self-Preservation

True strength isn’t found in preserving yourself from sacrifice, but in gladly spending yourself for others’ spiritual good alongside companions who share that same selfless commitment.

Persisting When You Feel Unsupported

We ought to endure in doing what is right regardless of the support, applause, or appreciation we receive, knowing Christ sees, cares, and rewards.
